NGT Restricts Construction Of Artificial Lakes In Qutab Area, South Delhi

The advocates who were from the NGO’s side asked for an instant stay on the activities of construction, making it clear that the DDA has shown default in filing its reply even after various opportunities. They also alleged that the artificial lakes were being constructed in a full-fledged way even after the matter is extremely controversial.

As per the bench of NGT, the matter has been given a hearing date of 8th August, 2017, after the plea of ordering a stay on any such kind of construction activities by NGO CHETNA.

The development of these artificial lakes without any technical advice from the experts would result in an unsustainable water body, which is harmful for the environment.
