Foreword
The Dilli-Disang
is a tributary to the mighty river Brahmaputra. The industrial activities
in the Namrup area in Sibsagar district are causing pollutional stress
on the Dilli-Disang. The Central Board through the Assam State Pollution
Control Board has been pursuading the industries to control the pollution
and its origin.
The present compilation is the first attempt to inventorise the pollution
potential and relevant sub-basin-wise characteristics of the Dilli-
Disang. This would help in compiling information on the entire Brahma-
putra river basin.
The basic report was prepared by Shri M.K. Sharma of Assam State Pollution
Control Board as one of the jour projects funded by the Central
