Nagarjuna Agrichem (NACL), one of India’s leading crop protection companies and an integral part of the Rs 20,000 crore Nagarjuna Group, has bagged clearances from the AP Pollution Control Board (APPCB), the fire department, and the inspector of factories for re-opening its pesticide unit at Chilakapalem village in Srikakulam district.

On June 30, fire broke out in the unit resulting in injuries to more than a dozen workers and the unit was shut down. The workers and staff of the unit were demanding re-opening of the unit, but there was opposition from sections of public in the nearby villages.

The pollution board has reversed the closure order after reviewing the environmental safeguards in the presence of public. In line with the present approvals, production can re-commence for a few products in a few blocks of the unit and it will be reviewed again after three months.
