Don't worry people this matter will be resolved soon..municipal corporation said that the situation will become better with completion of construction work inside the dumpyard. They will permit better control of fires and better access to the garbage heaps. They also assured that the dumping of garbage will be done in systematic manner when the site is ready for scientific closure.

Also in Thoraipakkam, pollution has reached to brim such that many people including children and senior citizens are suffering a lot due to burning of garbage. These problems include breathing problems, itching of eyes, rashes etc. The situation is so worse that the curtains of houses have turned ash in color.

In Perungudi.. groundwater resembles waste water from dyeing unit. Thus residents are now using packaged water for drinking and cooking purposes. Water supplied by government agencies in Perungudi are used for bathing purpose.

Yes it is very serious issue now..residents of Thoraipakkam and Perungudi protested against the garbage dumping in their villages and demanded the Chennai corporation to stop doing the same. They formed a human chain in front of the Perungudi garbage dump yard gate situated at Pallikaranai Marsh.
