The smoke and dust particles coming out of the industry covers the houses, clothes and other things affecting the health of the locals as the factory is right in the middle of the settlement, said Bhumadevi Bhattarai, a local.
The villagers complained that the owner and manager of the industry remain indifferent even when their attention was drawn many times to take measures to stop the pollution.
