Demonstrators gather to protest building on source of drinking water

The new Dunjingarav shopping mall has been the subject of a dispute that around claims that the commercial building was constructed on a source of drinking water for Ulaanbaatar City. Ulaanbaatar City officials made a statement due to the dispute saying that the building would not be built on the site. However, now the shopping mall has already been built and is open for service.

Now numerous complaints by several NGOs have been made that the shopping mall has played a big role in environmental degradation, including soil and water pollution near the area.

The Association of Voluntary Environmental Protectors Mongolia has announced it will hold a demonstration this week against the environmental degradation. The demonstration will be held outside of the illegally built Dunjingarav Mall which is located near Narantuul market in Bayanzurkh district.
