Bholakpur tanneries shifting hits roadblock [India]

A proposal to shift tanneries and plastic traders out of Bholakpur...[a]fter the Bholakpur water contamination incident, which claimed 14 lives in May 2009...hit a new roadblock with the Gas Authority of India Limited (GAIL) raising objections over relocating them to Rampally village in Keesara mandal. Reason: GAIL's gas pipeline will pass through the land allotted to the Bholakpur traders in Rampally village…The State Human Rights Commission (SHRC), which has been closely monitoring the issue, sought a report on the gas pipeline details like depth, length and other issues related to the project from GAIL.
