PANAJI: The National Green Tribunal (NGT) has directed Deltin Caravela to stop operations of its offshore flotel in the Mandovi, as the group does not have CRZ clearance for the activity. The tribunal has said that the activity cannot resume till the time Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) clearance is obtained.
The Goa State Pollution Control Board (GSPCB) has been asked to assess and recover compensation for the environmental damage caused by the offshore activity taking place without the required clearances.
