NGT Probes Alleged Ganga Plot Sale

The National Green Tribunal (NGT) has launched a thorough investigation into an alleged illegal sale of land plots along the revered Ganga riverbank. The probe stems from growing concerns regarding potential environmental impact and violations of regulatory norms.

The NGT's intervention underscores the urgency of robust oversight to safeguard this vital natural asset.

Stakeholders, including local authorities and developers, now face scrutiny from the NGT, tasked with providing a detailed report on the contested plots' sale. This case serves as a stark reminder of the critical need for sustainable development practices and strict adherence to environmental regulations.
