Listen to the story
The Sindh High Court has given authorities three months to take action against people growing vegetables in toxic water in Karachi's Malir and Korangi.
The Korangi additional deputy commissioner told the court they launched an operation but farmers have found new areas to grow their vegetables.
The court remarked that growing vegetables in industrial waste is a big concern. Needless to say that permanent action should be taken, the bench added.
