The copy of the letter stated that SIDCL did not mention in the application, the site of proposed STP and its survey number in which it will be constructed while seeking the NOC for the same.
Naik said that Undir locals are opposed to the proposed STP in residential area as it may pollute the village. The villagers also alleged that the panchayat and SIDCL kept them in the dark about proposed project.

The locals said they are not against the STP but want it at isolated place, away from residential area.
