Supreme Court Panel Seeks Extension to Redefine Aravalli Range Using Ecosystem Approach
A Supreme Court-appointed High-Powered Committee (HPC) has requested a six-month extension until February 2027 to complete a comprehensive assessment of the Aravalli mountain range. The panel emphasized that the Aravallis cannot be defined by a single terrain or height-based criterion, proposing an ecosystem-based framework that includes forests, water systems, biodiversity, and livelihoods. The committee highlighted the need for detailed mapping, expert analysis, and stakeholder consultations to ensure a scientifically defensible and transparent definition, addressing concerns over potential ecological and regulatory impacts.
