Flouting tree-protection order should attract contempt action, HC rules

Justice Jasmeet Singh said photographs of excavation carried out in the green belt on the station road in Delhi Cantonment showed that the mandate has "totally been given a go by and roots of trees have been cut without paying heed to the two-meter safety".

The judge directed that no trenching activity shall take place at the site in violation of the court's orders and asked the tree officer and station house officer (SHO) concerned to take remedial measures.
