This project violates the environmental impact assessment guidelines for coal-based thermal power plants.the location of the plant, 14 kilometers from the Sundarbans, violates one of the basic preconditions which says such projects must be outside a 25-kilometer radius from the outer periphery of an ecologically sensitive area.The predictions made by environment and ecology experts are that the plant will release toxic gases such as carbon monoxide, oxides of nitrogen and sulphur dioxide, thereby putting the surrounding areas and, most importantly, Sundarban at grave risk.As of June 30, 2016, with construction yet to begin, UNESCO had scheduled a meeting for July 11th to decide whether to declare the Sundarbans a "World Heritage Site in Danger,".We, All the people can stand for SUNDARBANS
