According to sources the Municipal Administration Minister Narayana said that if the camp office of Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu is found to be violating environmental norms, it would be demolished. He said that environmental rules mandate that there should be no construction within 100 meters from the river inside the river bed. If the CM's house is within 100 meters, then it would be removed, he said.
Meanwhile when talking to media persons, he said the National Green Tribunal verdict is a good augury for the state and hoped that it would speed up the construction of the capital city. He said the NGT has asked the State Government to follow the Detailed Public Report that it had submitted, in letter and spirit.
Further it may be recalled that on Friday, the NGT
had refused to vacate the clearance given to the capital area construction.
However, while refusing to interfere with the environmental clearance given to
Amaravati, the proposed capital of Andhra Pradesh, the National Green Tribunal
(NGT) has formed two committees a supervisory committee and an implementation committee
to monitor work on the project site of Amaravati.
