Sir: Murree Brewery, a liquor, beer and soft drinks producing company is situated close to the Army Officers Housing Scheme Askari-2, Chaklala Scheme 3, Rawalpindi on the right bank of Nullah Leh while Askari-2 is situated on the left bank of the same nullah just opposite the factory.

Of late, it has been observed that the factory, apart from generating unbearable smell, is now a constant source of ear piercing sound from its machinery running almost the whole day and night. The sound resembles an all-clear siren just nearby. While on the one hand, we are already fed up with the Nullah Leh, on the other hand, this factory is polluting the environment.

I request the Environmental Protection Agency to visit the site of the factory, gauge its distance from Askari-2 and once having thoroughly investigated, order for its closure and shifting from the current location to the distant outskirts of Rawalpindi.
