18,000 migratory birds in the Sambhar Lake in November, 2019
NGT had dismissed the plea stating it was similar to a suo motu case the tribunal was hearing. However, the plea in #supremecourt contends that the case is different.
Plea highlights violation of the Ramsar Convention on Wetlands of International Importance, 1971, to which India is a signatory. The said enactment mandates ‘wise’ use of wetlands and special protection of Wetlands that have been designated as a ‘Ramsar’ site #supremecourt
Justice L Nageswara Rao: file the order in the OA 1020/2019 disposing off the plea. List after a week
