56% : The Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) Notification 2018 eased construction rules along India's shorelines, opening ecologically sensitive coastal areas and fishing communities' habitats to commercial real estate and industrial activity, Gandhi said.
49% : It has served as a barrier to the spread of desertification from the Thar Desert to the Gangetic Plains, guarded Rajasthan's proudest forts such as Chittorgarh and Ranthambore, and served as the cradle of spirituality for communities across northwest India,'' Gandhi said in an article published in The Hindu. ''The Modi Government has now nearly signed a death warrant for these hills, already denuded by illegal mining,'' she said.
48% : Congress parliamentary party chairperson Sonia Gandhi on Wednesday claimed that since coming to power, the Modi government has displayed a particularly ''venal streak of cynicism'' in relation to environmental protection, while alleging that it has now ''nearly signed a death warrant'' for Aravalli hills.
46% : ''The Environment Ministry has more often been in the news for circumventing due process and weakening regulations rather than implementing them or taking proactive measures to halt the slide,'' the Congress leader said.
