Mumbai-based environmentalists have once again exposed alleged illegal dumping activities that are taking place close to a mangrove patch in Ulwe near Navi Mumbai. In a video that has been posted on social media, a dumper can be seen disposing of mud on an open plot close to mangroves.
On Tuesday, environmentalist Stalin D posted a video on X, formerly known as Twitter, tagging the chief minister, mangrove cell officer and collector of Raigad district, stating, “This is how CIDCO protects mangroves? Please take immediate action to stop violations of court orders that protect mangroves and 50 MTR buffer zones (sic).” Stalin has stated that the alleged encroachment on mangrove land was taking place opposite Sector 2 near a Larsen & Toubro plant.
