Jaundice outbreak: At Malyana treatment plant, effluents flow straight to Shimla’s water

The town is being supplied drinking water mixed with its own sewage as its treatment plant at Malyana, located 1.5 km below the Mehli-Dhalli bypass road, is in shambles. Half of the machinery at the plant, which has an installed of 4.44 MLD (Million Litre Per Day) capacity, is defunct, the sewage treatment process is faulty while there is absolutely no monitoring of its operations. The contractor running the plant (currently on the run after the police FIR) had employed no skilled manpower and neither had an operational manual to follow.
