Tiruppur Noyyal River Stretch Smells Worse This Monsoon ā Is the Dyeing Industry Discharge Worsening?
Every monsoon, Tiruppur's Noyyal river gets worse before it gets better ā rain washes additional waste into the already-stressed river system. But this year residents near Velampalayam and Kongalampalayam are reporting a noticeably stronger chemical smell from the river than previous monsoon seasons. The odour extends over 500 metres from the bank. The Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board has a monitoring station on this stretch. But residents say discharge from dyeing units seems heavier than normal, and the foam on the water surface is thicker. š¤ Community question: ā Have you noticed worsening conditions on the Noyyal this monsoon? ā Is the TNPCB monitoring station actually catching violations? ā Should the government pause dyeing unit permits until the Noyyal is cleaned? This river feeds farmland downstream. What happens here matters far beyond Tiruppur. Tell us what you're seeing. š
