Environmental groups in Jharkhand protested a Supreme Court ruling that defines the Aravalli Hills based on a 100-meter elevation criterion. Activists fear this could leave 90% of the range vulnerable to mining and deforestation, impacting the environment and future generations. Protesters, including CPI (Marxist-Leninist) members, criticized the government's stance, alleging it benefits corporations like Adani and Ambani at the expense of natural resources. They also raised concerns about deforestation in Jharkhand's forest areas.
