Illegal jeans dyeing and washing units are polluting gurgaon's drains with untreated, colored effluents, eventually reaching the Yamuna. The HPCB issued show-cause notices to several units operating without mandatory clearances or effluent treatment systems, warning of prosecution and environmental compensation. These operations, found in densely populated residential areas, pose a significant public health and groundwater contamination risk.
