Factory creating air and sound pollution which is effecting health


13-Sep-2023 (In Civil Law)
My family is suffering from air & sound pollution due to a factory shed very closely built next to our house.the sound evolved due to grinding & welding of iron & steel items is severely affecting the health condition of my family members.also different kind of toxic smell is causing breathing issue.kindly suggest measures to get rid off from the pollution.also it starts from morning 8a.m and goes even in odd hours sometimes beyond 10p.m.as per my knowledge the factory does have a proper fire licence or a trade licence.even many a times I have verbally requested the factory owner to to stop making huge sound generating from grinding time.the health condition of my mother is under serious threat & high possibility of some unseen incident.hence kindly suggest & advice for a strong legal action & the same could be treated a punishable offence.

Seen your post.The controlling authority is the state pollution control Board. Please lodge a formal complaint with the state pollution control Board with a copy to state factories directorate and local police station . If you don't get any possitive response from those authorities, straightway file an application with NGT of your concerned zone.Should you feel my assistance is required, contact me through lawRato.

Dear Sir,
The matter needs urgent attention and in that direction there are remedies under civil and criminal law.
However the description you have provided is inadequate to understand the validity of the factory's location in a residential area .
Request you to revert to me with further details on factory's permit and the toxicity report if any.
Regards
Anubrata.
