Now, there are a number of tanneries on the banks of the River Palar.
They let out the effluents in the Palar River. So, now the river water has
been polluted and it is not useful for drinking or agricultural purposes.
Due to pollution, the people are suffering from a number of diseases like
asthma, skin disease and stomach ailment, etc. Thousands of acres of
fertile land have become wasteland and it is not used for cultivation.
