The National Green Tribunal has issued a directive to stop reclamation and dumping on mangroves. This order is addressed to the Thane Commissioner of Police.
The Tribunal has also taken a step to ensure compliance, warning the Thane district collector of a personal appearance at the next hearing. This warning is contingent on the administration's failure to respond to the matter.
Further details on this directive and the circumstances surrounding it are available from the source. The warning to the collector indicates the Tribunal's intention to hold officials accountable for their response to the issue.
