While thousands of crores are being poured into the Riverfront Development (RFD) project to build "dead concrete walls," the reality on the ground—just downstream of Pune is a devastating environmental disaster. The water of the Mula-Mutha is now a toxic cocktail of green stench and thick white foam. Surrounding it are "oceans" of garbage that stretch as far as the eye can see. Is decorating the banks with concrete and cutting down thousands of trees the solution we need, or are we just masking a deeper crisis? It’s time to demand a focus on the health of the river, not just the aesthetics. #Pune #MulaMutha #EnvironmentAlert #SavePuneRivers #RFDProject
