FELLING OF TREES IN DELHI
-
The Supreme Court has agreed to hear a plea seeking to restrain the Delhi government from allowing felling of trees in the national capital without the Apex Court's permission.
The application, which stated that five trees are felled in Delhi every hour, also sought to restrain the Union Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change from permitting diversion of forests in Delhi without the top court's nod. The matter came up for hearing before a bench of Justices AS Oka and AG Masih on Friday. The court asked the Delhi government and others to respond to the application by November 22.
