Talking about ‘Tangas’ Dr Sehrish said that tangas are not only in Kashmir it’s also in foreign countries but the problem here is that owners of such tangas are not taking steps for saving the environment and are affecting the environment at large.
She directed Municipal Council authorities to play an important role to not only convey Tanga owners but guide and educate them too for the facilities to be made available so that environment will be saved and their daily livelihood ll also need to be affected.
