Environmental activists have urged a Supreme Court-appointed committee to delay its report on the Aravalli mountain range until it conducts site visits in all affected districts. The coalition claims that current public hearings are inaccessible to rural communities and fail to address the realities of illegal mining.
The Aravalli Virasat Jan Abhiyaan (AVJA), a coalition of environmentalists and activists, on Tuesday claimed that the Supreme Court-appointed High-Powered Committee (HPC) on the Aravallis had not visited any mining-affected villages to understand the ground reality.
