GURUGRAM: Samples of leachate collected from the Aravalis near the Bandhwari landfill were found to contain toxic substances and chemicals much higher than the permissible limits, according to results of tests released by the Haryana State Pollution Control Board (HSPCB) on Thursday.
The samples were collected on May 24 to evaluate if untreated leachate was flowing into the Aravalis. The report said among the contaminants were suspended solids, oil and grease. All these, the report said, were being discharged into the Aravalis and could adversely impact the groundwater.
