Earth material illegally dumped along the JVLR near Aarey Colony
Even as the National Green Tribunal (NGT) has asked authorities to remove illegal dumping along the Jogeshwari-Vikhroli Link Road (JVLR) near Aarey Milk Colony, it has now come to light that the illegal dumping of debris has resumed.
The present dumping along the east bound stretch of JVLR just ahead of SEEPZ is not far from the earlier location. Though the earth material is being dumped along the road, much of the material slides into the jurisdiction of Aarey Milk Colony. Dumping in forest and eco-sensitive zones is prohibited as it not only destroys the vegetation but also buries the nutrient rich topsoil that takes many years to form.
