‘Fish landing centre in Thoothukudi built without CRZ clearance’
The State is not above the law if there are violations committed in a project implemented by it, the Southern Bench of the National Green Tribunal (NGT) has said.
A violator has to face the consequences if any law is violated, it said, hearing a case against the construction of a fish landing centre of the Fisheries Department at Singithurai in Thoothukudi.
The report of a joint committee, which was submitted to the NGT, pointed to the violations in the construction of the fish landing centre in the Coastal Regulation Zone (CRZ) area without the necessary clearance under the CRZ Notification, 2011, and also in the laying of a concrete road, which was prohibited in the location.
