    Prompt news can change confusion I am a non resident from Belthangady, last March I was in India enjoying my vacation. My brother had a marriage proposal from Ullal – Kotepura. Hence we went to their home for corroborate their living. Suddenly my nose smelled very hazardous smell, I did not know the fact of that smell, so I packed up all my family from Kotepura without settlement of that proposal and escaped from that bad smell.

    Today one of my friends called me to inform about this news of DAIJIWORLD. I felt very ashamed and guilty of breaking my brothers proposal. DAIJIWORLD did a very good job by publishing this news. I would like to request with DAIJIWORLD can go forward to investigate that how the fish oil factories dare to establish their bad odor firm in such area.

    Thanks to respected District Collector who passed the order to close this firm, and I request with him that he orders a punishment to the factory owners who made environmental pollution and who  dared to break the respected Indian constitution Law which is not allowing any factory in certain area of seashore.

    As having my origins from  Ullal (Mogaveera Patna).,  I want to appreciate the action taken by DC to close the illegal fish oil units in Kotepura.

    Last year my grand parents used to complain about the bad smell, when I used call from the UAE. Even my cousin when she was pregnant consistently vomited for three days and later was hospitalized.

    Later it came to my knowledge that all the fish units run by the owners who bribed some local rowdies and help them in forcefully operating the fish units.

    I pray and thank the people who supported to close the illegal fish oil units and brought to the knowledge of respective authority. Jai Hind
