Waste water from every production sectors was treated in proper manner and uses them again in some

production lines and release for agricultural purposes.

Laborers should be well awared about hygienic

practices.

Waste water plant must be well improved

First they ignore you..

Then they laugh at you..

Then they fight with you..

Then you win!
