E.A.S. Sarma, a former IAS officer, has written a letter to the A.P. Pollution Control Board chairman expressing concerns about an Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) study commissioned for the Gajuwaka cement grinding unit. Sarma alleges the study is misleading and lacks sufficient detail for a meaningful public hearing. He claims the findings are not supported by thorough data analysis and could potentially pose risks to the environment. Sarma is requesting a re-evaluation of the study’s methodology and further investigation. He asserts the current assessment is inadequate and requires a more robust review.
