Jairam Ramesh Raises Concerns Over Modi Government's Aravalli Redefinition Plans
Senior Congress leader Jairam Ramesh has warned that the Modi government's plan to redefine the Aravalli hills poses a serious threat to the region's environment and water security. He urged the Supreme Court's High Powered Committee, tasked with reviewing the redefinition by November 2026, to reject these moves. Decades of mining have already damaged the Aravallis, impacting water recharge and local ecosystems. Ramesh's concerns follow reports highlighting mining's environmental effects in Rajasthan and surrounding areas.
