Ghaziabad, Apr 20 (PTI) The Ghaziabad district administration today sealed 15 illegal denim dyeing units and arrested four persons in raids at Hans Colony here.
The unauthorised dyeing units were allegedly being run by Delhi-based factory owners, SDM (Loni) Prem Ranjan Singh said.
He claimed that these factories were being operated in connivance with staffers of the pollution control board, the electricity department and the municipality.

During the raids, four persons were arrested, the official said.
In a separate raid this afternoon, a factory in Tronica area was found illegally manufacturing hair oil.
