The Report of the Central Empowered Committee (CEC) of the Supreme Court With Rens And State and State and State of State, and State and State, and State and State and State, and Government on the and Government on the and Government. 2002 Tree Law (Walta).
The committee said that the law did not provide any kind of exempted trees as notified by the government from time to time.
The exempt species, according to the state government, are the falling trees, which is not required formal permission of the forest department as stipulated by law. On the other hand, the self -certification of the individual or user agency together with the rate prescribed online would be sufficient.
The CEC said that the law, through its section 40, stipulated that the government can exempt only specific areas or area as a whole of its application, and not certain species.
The self -autrtification form presented by the Zonal Manager of the TGIIC lacked critical information, the committee said. He did not mention the names of the species of trees proposed to be carved or the essential details, such as the circumference and height of the trees. These omissions raise serious doubts about the due diligence exercised in the process by TGIIC and the Forest Department, according to the report.
Discrepancies were also questioned in the informed extension of the area propose authorization. TGIIC declared that 122 acres would be eliminated, but in the form presented to the district forestry officer, the area was mentioned as 150 acres. The letter to the police department mentioned it as 400 acres.
According to the 2006 Environmental Impact Assessment notification, municipalities and area development projects that cover an area equal to more than 50 hectares are necessarily necessary to carry out the evaluation of the impact of the environment.
The fact of not obtaining environmental authorization and the decision to request only the consent for the establishment of TGPCB by showing a reduced project area, called by the Committee as ‘who eats pieces’, said serious legal and environmental conerns.
Under the pretext of eliminating exempted tree species, the TGIIC, through its contractor, dedicated itself to the generalized and indistriminated destruction of trees, shrubs and other natural vegetation, the report said.
When observing the destruction of rock formations on the site using heavy machinery, the Committee observed that it not only cautious the irreversible damage to the landscape, but also led to the destruction of critical habitats for the survival of certain animals.
Taking the knowledge of wildlife on the site, the Committee referred to a letter from the director of the Wildlife, which mentioned 64 registered cases of rescue, injuries or death of stained deer in the UOH between 2013 and 2025.
Citing the statement of the main secretary that the animals “extracted” the land in question, said the committee, if environmental authorization (EC) had properly requested, the entire 400 acres area along with its adjacent area would have suffered a comprehensive evaluation under the EIA process. It would also have guaranteed public consultations, scientific evaluation and regulatory scrutiny, therefore, prevention of public disturbances.
Upon reaching the property of the 400 acres of land, the report concluded that any claim of absolute property by TGIIC is legally controversial, and any attempt to create third parties in interest mortgages. Coutdresty.
The report also observed that the state -level expert committee constituted in the instructions of the Supreme Court, to identify the areas similar to forests, had no representation of real experts. To determine if the Kancha Gachiwowli land could be classified as forest, the CEC asked the Indian forest survey to carry out a vegetation density survey. The team was already in Hyderabad, according to the report.
The committee recommendations include the expert committee constituted with forestry officers, wildlife experts, environmentalists, IT and television professionals, cancellation of CFE by TGPCB, ecological evaluation of the Wildlife Institute of India, strict action against TGIIC and the contractor and the arrest of the waters of the waters of the waters in the Lagos in the Lagos in the UOH.
