I thought that the dumped oil waste was from Guwahati Refinery, which is ours - the people of Assam, I mean. Does it come from a Delhi refinery now?
Hi mm-da, I am not being sarcastic, but am really wondering, honest! We grew up by the Bharalu river and have wrongfully been accusing the wrong refinery - for polluting the water there.

Not just no- drinking/washing water-
No solid waste management/garbage collection/disposal fit for a city
No sewer/sewage treatment/ storm-water disposal
Raw sewage from so-called Septic tanks of 2 million people just dumped into the pure river.What happens to the health of Kamrup/Goalpara/Dhubri--and the whole nation -Bangladesh?
And Delhi's very own Refinery dumps daily 100 tons of Oil waste direct to river or through Guahati drain system/Bharalu and no Pollution Control Board dares to touch them.
Indian Science does not know/cares to know that 1 drop of oil spreads to a film of 100 sq mtr opaque for Oxygen.
No Oxygen-> no planktons->no fish->no Xihoo (River Porpoise).
Who Cares!
P.S.Thanks for the free publicity {MC Mahanta's bamboo-reinforcement}
