Hyderabad: If everything goes as planned by the Telangana State Pollution Control Board then people from the state might soon get to know pollution status in real time not just from the city but from 46 industries across the state on a single website.
The TSPCB recently visited Karnataka where the state pollution control board is using a software, which gives a common platform for all pollution monitoring units regardless of their make.
N. Raveendhar, Senior Social Scientist, TSPCB, said, “The software will enable quick real time monitoring. TSPCB officials will be sent SMS whenever the pollution levels recorded are above normal for a long time in a given unit. The software also has instant messaging feature which will link TSPCB with industries having pollution monitoring units with the software.”
