Minister Prakash Javadekar's Cautious Response On Aarey Tree-Cutting Row | Read
Environment Minister Prakash Javadekar today declined to shed light on the controversy over cutting of trees in Mumbai's Aarey Colony to make space for a car shed of the Mumbai Metro. Citing a Supreme Court order today that no more trees should be cut till October 21 when the environment bench hears the case, Mr Javadekar deflected questions from reporters on the way forward for Aarey, where any gathering of four or more people are banned by the police to prevent trouble.
