Central Vista Tree Cutting

Citing delays in various important projects like Central Vista, Metro Phase IV, Regional Rapid Transit System, and Dwarka Expressway, Delhi Lt Governor VK Saxena has written to Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal to address issues and fix responsibility.

The Delhi SEAC has observed that the CPWD's proposal to construct an executive enclave as part of the Central Vista redevelopment plan will remove an "excessively high proportion" of trees, according to a document.

There must be no construction or demolition for the central vista project after Prime Minister Narendra Modi launches a part of it this week, the Supreme Court said today, rebuking the government for "moving forward aggressively" on the plan even before a decision on petitions challenging it.

Union Urban Development Minister Hardeep Puri on Friday said not a single tree will be cut and the green cover will be multiplied 10 times in the ministry's Central Vista redevelopment plan, which will include renovation of Parliament, construction of a new central secretariat and revamping of Rajpath.
