The Chandigarh Municipal Corporation has initiated the installation of Effluent Treatment Plants (ETP) at two gaushalas, namely Sector-45 and Sector-25, as part of an environmental initiative. The project aims to treat wastewater generated from these cowsheds, enhancing its quality by eliminating harmful substances.
Chandigarh's Mayor, Anup Gupta, kickstarted the installation of ETPs, marking a significant step toward eco-friendly wastewater management. The project involves setting up a 40 Kilo Litre Per Day (KLD) capacity ETP at Sector-45 gaushala and a 20 KLD capacity ETP at Sector-25 gaushala.
