Goa: Pollution Control Board seals hotels releasing sewage into fields in Anjuna

Mapusa: In a related development, the lush green surroundings of Anjuna were facing environmental threat as hotels located at St. Sebastian Waddo in Ward No. 6 were releasing sewage into the fields.

Taking action against these hotels, Goa State Pollution Control Board took immediate action and sealed the hotels. Decisive action was taken because this irresponsible action by hotels poses a significant threat to the local ecosystem.

The sealing of the hotels serves as a clear reminder that some hotels and tourism establishments have not adopted responsible tourism practices so as to preserve our natural landscapes. Goa, famous for its pristine beaches and lush green surroundings, depends heavily on tourism, making sustainable management of environmental resources important for tourism’s survival.

The Pollution Control Board’s intervention underlines the commitment to maintain ecological balance and protect the natural beauty of Goa.
