Coimbatore (TN), Jul 25 (ANI): Hundreds of dead fish were found floating in Coimbatore’s Valankulam tank on Tuesday. The residents alleged that effluent discharge from nearby textile units caused the mass deaths. According to a resident “Reason for death of fish is discharge of toxic dyes into the water tank by textile dyeing units situated nearby. The water remains polluted and is unfit even for agricultural use. We demand a probe.” Fishermen removed dead fishes from the water to avoid further contamination caused by the ones that started to decay. Coimbatore corporation officials started investigating the matter.
