Photos taken by environmentalist and a complaint filed by him reveals civic bodies are doing nothing to prevent the water body's degradation

The chamber through which dirty water flows to the sewage treatment plant is broken
When the case related to the rising pollution level of the Ulhas River had come up in the Supreme Court, the commissioners of the Ulhasnagar Municipal Corporation (UMC) and Ambarnath Municipal Council (AMC) had said that all steps were being taken to prevent the discharge of untreated sewage into the water body.
However, the reality on ground appears to be quite different. A couple of pictures clicked by an environmentalist and a complaint filed by him reveals that the civic bodies are doing nothing to prevent the river's degradation, as untreated sewage continues to flow into its waters near Ambarnath.
