Govandi residents had demanded removal of all three RMC factories, but only one plant (painted yellow) has been issued notice, at Deonar
The civic body has given the company operating one of three ready mixed concrete (RMC) plants at Deonar in Govandi East a last chance to demolish the structure, which was declared unfit this January. Appropriate action will be taken as per law, the BMC has told the firm.
Residents of Neelkanth Gardens Co-operative Housing Society in Govandi East were the first to raise a demand for the closure of all the three plants. Later, other societies in the area joined them. The plants, which have been operating in their vicinity for a year, aggravated respiratory problems among residents and many suffered from bronchitis, they said.
