Living in Dumpyard
The dumpsite or landfill is barely 500 meters away from the residencies in Pirana. Every month dozens of people drowns in the sea of death and the reason is obvious the air pollution caused by waste dumped there. Everyday approximately 40,00,000 of waste of Ahmedabad is disposed off and the residents of Pirana breathes tonnes of hazardous gas. Every resident of Pirana suffer from some kind of health problems. Life expectancy rate in Pirana gradually decreases with the successive years and the reason for the same are inappropriate health and sanitation facilities, proper food, and most important is the poisonous pollution. Residents near  dump yard is illegal but people residing in Pirana does not have any option. It can be termed as self-exploitation but they choose to live there to earn livelihood by garbage collections and by working in the industries nearby. None choses life of low quality but sometimes it is not our choice, it is our compulsion. PIL(Public Interest Litigation) was also filed to AMC regarding the transfer of the dump yard but as the residencies are illegal, the PIL was dismissed and no reliefs were granted to the residents. AMC initiated the mobile ambulance services to resolve issues of health arising due to the pollution and other hazardous acts.
