YADADRI BHUVANAGIRI: Tension prevailed at Ramannapet on Wednesday during a public hearing on the proposed cement factory as people from various villages gathered, displaying placards and chanting slogans against the factory’s establishment.
They questioned why a corporate company, which had acquired 360 acres from farmers along Kommaigudem road for a dry port, now aims to build a cement factory on the same land. Locals voiced concerns about pollution affecting air quality, water resources, and agricultural land, warning that toxic gases could spread up to 14 km and contaminate the Musi river.
