10-feet of ‘effluent’ foam drowns Pune’s Mula river

Residents of Dapodi and nearby areas were in for a rude shock on Thursday morning when they woke up to a foaming Mula river near Harris bridge. Dyeing and sewage effluents had created multitudes of froth, which according to experts is ‘dangerous’ to humans and animals.

The foam had stagnated to a height of 10 feet and was spread across 10 metres under the Harris bridge, which connects Pimpri-Chinchwad with Pune municipal corporation areas.  The foam, generated mainly due to industrial effluents, has been stagnating since the past few days, said local residents.
