Tellapur residents protest RMC plant over pollution and safety concerns

Tellapur residents protest RMC plant over pollution and safety concerns

HyderabadMail.com 2 weeks ago

HYDERABAD: The Tellapur Neighbourhood Association (TeNA) and residents from Hallmark County, Muppa Indraprastha Villas, Sancia Villas, and Muppa Melody held a peaceful protest on Wednesday.

They gathered in front of the ready-mix concrete (RMC) plant, which is next to Hallmark County in the Tellapur Division.

The protest showed the serious air, dust, and noise pollution from the plant. In addition, it brought up traffic jams and safety problems because the plant is so close to homes and a school. As a result, DSR Construction management responded quickly. They promised to move the plant soon and to stop all work right away.

Residents said they were worried about the ready-mix concrete (RMC) plant being so close to their homes. In their view, it causes more air, dust, and noise pollution. These problems can harm people's health. Furthermore, heavy trucks going to and from the plant worsen traffic and create safety risks, especially for children, older people, and anyone walking in the area.

Blue Block School is right next to the plant. Because of this, people are even more worried. School staff joined the protest to show how the plant could hurt students' and staff members' health and safety.

Residents seek urgent action from officials

TeNA and residents filed an online complaint to the District Collector, the Commissioner of the Cyberabad Municipal Corporation, the Telangana State Pollution Control Board, and the Traffic Police. They asked these officials to act quickly to solve the environmental and safety problems and to keep residents and children safe and healthy.

Residents held signs and chanted for the closure and removal of the ready-mix concrete plant. They said the plant is a public nuisance and a big safety risk for everyone in the area.

During the protest, leaders from DSR Construction met the protesters. As a result of these talks, they formally promised to move the ready-mix concrete (RMC) plant as soon as possible. They also said the plant's work would stop right away. This news gave the community some relief.

TeNA and the residents welcomed these promises. Moving forward, they asked DSR Construction to keep its word and act quickly. They said the health and safety of thousands of residents and students is more important than business convenience.

Residents said they were hopeful but would keep watching what happened next. Meanwhile, TeNA and the community asked officials to closely watch the situation and keep the neighborhoods and the school safe from pollution, traffic, and safety risks.

TeNA said it will keep working with residents, officials, and others to solve neighborhood problems. Their goal is to make Tellapur safe, healthy, and peaceful for everyone.
