Vashi Mini Seashore witnesses
death of many fish, environment activists protest

NAVI MUMBAI: Vashi
Mini Seashore witnessed a shocking happening during the early hours of the
morning. A huge number of dead fish were found at the seashore. The fishermen
around suspect that the spread of certain kind of oil in the sea could be the
reason for the death of such a huge number of fish.
The industries around which dispose off their chemical
waste in the sea could also be the cause of death of such a large number of
fish. Another reason could be the advent of winter season which exposed the
fish to cold waves resulting in their death. Some attribute the death of these
fish to fumigation that was carried out in the sea to finish the mosquitoes.
The Environment activists raised a hue and cry about this
happening and demanded that Navi Mumbai Municipal Corporation should take
serious view about this incident and ensure that poisonous waste are not thrown
into the sea since they could be hazardous not only to the marine lives that
dwell within the water but also to those residents who come here to enjoy
swimming.
