BJP leader flags concern over eco-sensitive zone
Nayagaon Ghar Bachao Manch and senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Vineet Joshi today claimed that defying the orders of the Supreme Court and denying the existence of a high-level committee of three cabinet ministers constituted by the Punjab government, the state’s Forest and Wildlife Conservation Department, has again sent the old proposed notification to the Punjab cabinet.
“The notification is meant for declaring an Eco-Sensitive Zone upto 3 km for Sukhna Wildlife Sanctuary adjacent to the Nayagaon Municipal Committee for the approval of the Cabinet,” Joshi said, seeking a meeting of all stakeholders.
Joshi said the notification if approved will have ramifications, claiming, “The houses, shops, hospitals, religious places, hotels built according to the law, may also be demolished.”
