Main Body
If unethical dumping continues, I would try to make people aware about harmful impact of hazardous waste, through transparent audit report. Local people's pressure may force company to adopt ethical practices. Apart from this, I will raise issue of legal permissible limit and need of careful scientific revision of this criteria so that it doesn't harm people in long term. In addition, I would also request company to explore affordable and scientific waste disposal practice for long term. In Subhash Kumar vs State of Bihar Case, S.C. recognised Right to clean air as fundamental right. Thus according to John Rawls' justice approach, we must try to protect rights of local community.
