Are there health issues in Vellalore due to the dumpyard

Q: I’m so skeptical to invest in the Vellalore area. I have been going around looking for plots to invest in, because they are unbelievably cheap. But the locals in the area have been complaining of diseases and infections due to the dumpyard. Is it true?

Hey, the dumpyard is a problem. But, that doesn’t mean you can’t invest in the entire Vellalore area. I suggest you wait a bit, follow the news. Lot of protests are happening, some solution will definitely come up. Corporation will soon start capping services too. So, there’ll be some relief.

I heard there are several petitions being made to remove this dumpyard to a location where no one lives. On one side, the Government is trying to develop Vellalore for real estate investments, and on the other hand, letting the dumpyard sit here. I wouldn’t invest here till something effective was done about the dumpyard.

It is completely true! The locals there are facing so many problems because of this dumpyard. Their health has gone for a toss because of the unhygienic conditions in the area around the dump. kids have constant cold and infections.
