Shyampur is being covered in black smoke

Shyampur is being covered in black smoke, raising a silent health crisis.
The smoke released from iron melting and re-rolling factories operating day and night continues to pollute the local environment. Thousands of residents are living with the consequences of polluted air, while many workers inside these factories continue to work in hazardous conditions without proper safety equipment. Behind the growth of industry lies a long-standing crisis of public health and workers’ safety.
