The National Green Tribunal has, through a recent order, rapped the HMDA and Ranga Reddy district Collector for failing to submit reports even after a year with regard to the alleged encroachment of the Mamasani Kunta in Gandipet.
Southern bench of the environmental apex court chaired by judicial member K. Ramakrishnan and expert member Satyagopal Koralapati, while hearing a petition filed by noted environmental activist from the city, Lubna Sarwat, expressed chagrin that its orders from a year ago have not been paid heed to by the two respondents in the case.
In the previous order, the tribunal had directed the HMDA and the project proponent and alleged encroacher Phoenix Spaces Private Limited, to furnish their objections to the affidavit filed by Ms. Sarwat, disputing the joint committee report filed earlier, giving clean chit to the construction company.
