Atul's waste dump on Par river

If this is really what I think it is... yuck.. a wonderful gift of pollution from Humanity to Nature!!

U have got it wrong....The company is not dumping chemicals to make the water look black. The closure of the river for the dam work has made black soil rise to the surface to give its color...trust me, i'm in atul

YA it is true that Atul is proven polluter.... environmental track record of this company is very bad they are showing the trees as environment but they are polluting the river and coastal belt too much they throw colouful acid water in river directly and throw waste in to the creek so fish kills. every time fish killing takes place and authority is puppet of atul.. Atul's guest house is free and open 24 hours for corrupt officials... ask any one for this...this is very famous...........

I am living in Atul for last 15 years. I can tell you the negative comments written above are by the disgruntled elements, who did not get their selfish interests satisfied. The company is there for last more than 50 years in harmony with nature and locals. Anybody can tell you the good work done by the company towards environment and society. All manmade forest in and around Atul make you feel you are in a resort not in an industrial area.

I can not say why the blackish colour appears in this photo and how old the photos are. This can be due to effect of satellite image but let us not blame a company who has done so much to the environment. There is a bird sanctuary inside the factory area. Can you believe?

Come there and see yourself. Seeing is believing.

Atul industries is the biggest polluter. I would like to ask the above writer, if he thinks water is so clean and Atul is in harmony etc... why doesn't he pump the water from the output of Atul plants to his own home? All the talk about clean environment in Atul is nothing but a pack of lies. You cannot fool the satellite imagery. Anyone who's been to the Par river delta has had the filthy smell of pollution and toxic chemicals. Even drinking a sip of water coming from Par river to the sea is like taking poison. All the hype about manmade forest/bird sanctuary is fooling because it is limited to such a small area, hardly any impact to environment compared to hundreds of tonnes of pollution thrown into the river here. Why doesn't Atul dare to build a fish sanctuary right on the middle of the Par river where it is throwing all the garbage into it shamelessly. Lalbhai group is blood sucking enterprise, It runs like a mafia house thriving on black money, Outside of home they would loot and kill people but inside the home he is like a great philanthropist. who is fooling whom? Why has the mosquitoes multiplied in and around Atul? it is simply because of the pollution, there are no fish/aquatic life left to eat the mosquitoes eggs that breed on the river water. The entire environment around the Par river belt has been destroyed. Witness the multiplication of cancer patients and health problems unheard of before among those whose live in this taluka. It is a different matter when you earn money by your own credentials and with honesty and hardwork. But when companies like Atul that make money based on throwing free garbage onto the fresh water rivers (that not found even in the gutters of the developed countries), or killing the Mother nature like the fruit producing trees & clean water, or selling the lives of people, then the Lalbhai group is no different from a thug goonda who smiles at you like the Prem Chopra villan in the movies. If there is any hope left for this region, then the disposal of waste should be stopped, and let the native Hindus who have lived here for centuries get a sigh of relief.

To the "Atul resident" - seeing is believing... i m seeing red colored water? (go right upstream towards atul industry) what's up with that? Every other place the water seems blue(dark blue if its polluted) but RED? that is clearly color/chemical disposed in to the sea
