May I request the hon'ble members to enlighten me on the following:-
1. A baby walker manufacturing unit is running in my neighborhood for several years. (In a residential area).It is causing a great deal of nuisance and discomfort to all the neighbourers. Due to having high links, no one is willing to raise voice against the owner of the factory.
2. It is causing air and noise pollution in the neighborhood.
3. It is not known whether the factory has a valid industrial license.
4. It is suspected that the owner may be an evader of income tax, excise duty, VAT amongst others.
5. The occupier has never paid house tax.
6. The unit also employs and exploits 7 people in these hazardous activities.
7. It is not using a commercial water connection.
Kindly suggest me the names and addresses of departments/authorities which should be approached for:
1. Closure of the factory
2. Ascertaining whether the owner has an industrial license, a commercial water connection, and has evaded any kind of taxes.
By means of a formal complaint or RTI application.
