Wetlands are vital resources and their benefits are unlimited, especially for us who mostly depend on agriculture. It’s so sad to see that, despite all the government’s efforts of protect the environment, some people still engage in such malpractices, therefore violating the law.

By arresting and holding accountable these individuals, the Police are doing a great favour to the future generations.
