In 1995, the Supreme Court ordered 538 polluting tanneries operating in the heart of the Kolkata to relocate to the outskirts. The tanneries relocated to Bantala, 20 km away, but 17 years later its business as usual.

The 1100 acre Calcutta Leather Complex in Bantala opened in 2005. Now its a living hell with untreated effluents flowing all over and solid waste choking storm water canals. In a bizzare planning in 2006, the state government of West Bengal opened an Info

Constant nausea and burning in the eyes are common among workers. Very few units supply them with protective gloves, boots or masks. Despite the Supreme Court order there is no hospital yet for the 12,000 workers.
