There is no gainsaying the importance of clean environment but we are rampantly polluting it in different ways. Brick kilns are being built flouting the law. It is a big polluter of environment. And these are constructed grabbing cultivable land. The brick fields emit noxious smokes and affect other lands next to it. People working at brick fields are endangering their lives by inhaling the poisonous air. The owners of these brick fields are thus destroying the environment with impunity. The reason is these greedy people have connections in high places. I urge the authorities to come forward and take immediate action against these illegal brick field operators and thus ensure clean environment.
