Locals raise concern over industrial effluents entering sea
People in a village near Visakhapatnam are worried because factories are dumping dirty water into the sea.
This dirty water is making the sea animals sick and washing up dead turtles on the beach.
The villagers have been asking for help for a long time, but nothing has been done.
Recently, some important people visited the area to see the problem for themselves.
They promised to talk to the people in charge and ask them to fix the problem.
They also asked everyone to stop throwing plastic into the sea and to help take care of the ocean.
Untreated industrial pollutants are entering the sea, threatening marine life and human health.
Villagers have been raising the issue for years, but no action has been taken.
Key figures visited the affected areas and promised to bring the issue to authorities.
Fishermen's livelihoods are affected, and many suffer from diseases due to pollution.
Dead sea turtles washing ashore highlight the threat to marine species like dolphins.
