GURUGRAM:

Acting through her legal counsel, Vaishali Rana, a resident of Valley View Estate in Gwal Pahari, has written to the concerned government departments demanding the restoration of four specific waterbodies that have either vanished or been severely encroached upon.

In the representation, her counsel has cited multiple legal precedents and statutory obligations to argue that the state is failing in its constitutional duty to preserve common environmental assets such as ponds and stormwater drains.
