The civic authority further informed that in the upcoming weeks, massive action against such dyeing units will take place and all such units will be sealed by the Najafgarh Zone.

Earlier this year, the High-Level Committee constituted by the National Green Tribunal (NGT) on the rejuvenation of the Yamuna had also noted at a recent meeting that the dyeing units contribute to pollution in drains and in the river.
