NGT Orders Bhopal Authorities to Submit Detailed Reports on Plastic Units and Shahpura Lake
The National Green Tribunal (NGT) has directed Bhopal authorities to provide detailed reports on two environmental issues. It criticized the Bhopal Municipal Corporation for submitting an incomplete report on 50 illegal plastic recycling units and demanded a comprehensive compliance update within four weeks. Separately, the NGT granted three weeks to submit a detailed survey report on Shahpura Lake, citing delays due to coordination among four tehsil jurisdictions. Hearings are scheduled for November 27 and January 7, 2027.
