    Why Mangalore is encouraging chemical industry? I see many are suffering there with asthma, skin diseases, throat problems etc are become very common in that neighborhood.

    When Mangaloreans use products manufactured elsewhere at the cost of someone's health and environment it sounds fair to you people , why so ?

    A new industry operating within SEZ seems to have ignored all safety norms and the result is this explosion. A glance at their EIA report and pre- feasibility report is pointing towards half baked project. For example see the waste generation which gives some numbers without relevant units. God only knows how they got environmental clearance based on that report. Report is hosted on the net. People in and around - be vigilant and ensure your safety.

    I strongly suggest not make any comment, before knowing the exact cause of this incident. Such incidents are possible i any Chemical Industry and we have to ensure such incidents will not repeat based on lessons learnt.
