NGT Seeks Response On Navi Mumbai Quarrying

The National Green Tribunal (NGT) has sought a response from the government regarding quarrying activities near the Tata Cancer Hospital in Navi Mumbai.

The tribunal's move comes after the hospital raised concerns over the dust and blasting caused by the quarrying, which they claim is affecting the health and well-being of their patients.

The hospital had approached the NGT, citing the negative impact of the quarrying on the environment and the patients. The NGT has taken note of the hospital's concerns and has questioned the continuation of quarrying activities in the area after 2020-21.

The quarrying activities in question are located near the hospital, which is a major concern for the hospital authorities. The hospital has been complaining about the dust and noise pollution caused by the quarrying, which they claim is affecting the recovery of their patients.

The NGT has asked the government to respond to the hospital's concerns and to explain why the quarrying activities are being allowed to continue despite the potential harm they may be causing.

The tribunal's decision is a significant development in the case, as it highlights the need for the government to balance the needs of industries with the need to protect the environment and public health.

The Tata Cancer Hospital is a major medical facility in Navi Mumbai, and the quarrying activities near it have been a cause of concern for the hospital authorities and local residents.

In recent years, the NGT has been actively involved in cases related to environmental pollution and public health, and this case is another example of the tribunal's efforts to protect the environment and public health.

The government's response to the NGT's notice is expected to shed more light on the issue and the steps that will be taken to address the concerns raised by the hospital and the local residents.

The case highlights the importance of balancing industrial activities with environmental and public health concerns, and the need for the government to take proactive steps to address these concerns.
