A major industry it may be, but Muzaffarnagar’s paper mills often utilise huge number of resources including power, coal, rice husk and pith. Often, these become scarce, especially coal. The area’s water is also polluted and over extracted. No wonder then that the industry is constantly scrutinised by the Central Pollution Control Board and the National Green Tribunal to ensure environmental compliance.
