Water hyacinth and sewage choking the Adyar river near Kotturpuram bridge

Problem

The Adyar river stretch near Kotturpuram bridge is completely covered with water hyacinth. Raw sewage outfalls and dumped garbage have made the smell unbearable for residents on the riverbank, and mosquito breeding has exploded. Suggested action: Identify and penalise the polluters, barricade the dumping access, and schedule a cleanup with citizen volunteers.
