Clean air–a basic right

The air in Hazaribagh is seriously polluted. With residential houses and tannery factories cohabitating in the same area, smoke from the factories, bad odour from raw hides, and the onslaught of flies attracted to the hides make it a very difficult environment to live in. Pedestrians and students of nearby schools face the worst of it while walking by.
I urge the concerned authorities to look into the matter.
