Flouting tree-protection order should attract contempt action, HC rules
The Morning Standard
|February 20, 2024
THE Delhi High Court asked a Military Engineer Services (MES) official on Monday to explain why contempt action should not be initiated against him for violating an earlier order on not carrying out any civil work within a two-meter radius of any existing tree without prior permission.

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.
