Since the oil spill in the coast of Chennai, occurred on Sunday, it is only oil and more oil, whether it is the Marina beach or the distant coast of Tiruvallur. Thousands of people, including many cost guards, officials,workers, fishermen and locals are now involved in cleaning up the oil and limiting the damage.
As the oil is contaminated with saline, it is not sent to the refinery but to the hazardous waste processing facility.
Environmental activist Nityanand Jayaraman told the media that the authorities messed up after the accident. He said there was no immediate response to the spill.
