Adding to the large-scale illegal mining incidents, the mining mafia has now built a road cutting the Ganga at Sumerpur Ghat in the Unnao district of Uttar Pradesh.

However, the administration was not informed about the construction of the road.
Due to stagnant water, a huge amount of moss has also accumulated on either side of the path. According to the information, mining operations in the area have been carried out over the last several days.
