💨 Abstract

The National Green Tribunal has directed a petitioner to report illegal sand mining from the Yamuna river in north Delhi to the Delhi Pollution Control Committee or mining department. The tribunal's action follows allegations by a village chief that a sand mafia is illegally extracting large quantities of sand and that unauthorized activities have caused cracks in a nearby bund (check dam).
