Srinagar, Jun 28: In a blatant violation of the High Court orders, illegal constructions have cropped up along Nallah Sindh baseline in Kangan area of central-Kashmir’s Ganderbal district.
Sources told that some people in Thune area of Kangan Tehsil in the district have been off late trying to grab the baseline of the nallah for construction purposes, which comes in sharp contrast to the orders of the state High Court.
It is pertinent to mention here that the High Court has passed directions that no construction be carried out within 350-ft periphery of the nallah, while the sources suggested that constructions as close as 30- ft. have been going on in the area.
Some senior citizens informed that the people involved in construction work have been given a free hand by authorities. “They have been let off by the authorities”, they said. Footage of the ongoing constructions has also been taken from the spot which lies with the GNS team. (GNS)
