Due to the strong tidal effects of supermoon, the seawater at Panje has managed to cross over the man-made bunds that were blocking the water movement
NAVI MUMBAI: The Supermoon phenomenon that occurred early this week has managed to do a tiny super-miracle at the parched Panje wetland, which the environmentalists were quite literally begging the government officials to restore.
Due to the strong tidal effects of supermoon, the seawater at Panje has managed to cross over the man-made bunds that were blocking the water movement. As the tidal water gushed through, several migratory birds also immediately started coming into Panje in the last two days.

MUMBAI: The project-affected fishing community of JNPT on Friday staged a protest to block ship movement at the container port in support of their 36-year-old issue of resettlement of displaced families of erstwhile Sheva Village.
Meanwhile, JNPT officials said though ship movement remains unaffected, upon the request of district administration, the port has already released an amount of Rs 5.69 crores on February 16, 2021 and has further requested the shipping ministry to grant permission to enhance the amount to Rs 14.64 crores (inclusive of 5.69 crores) considering the 15 years inflation towards the resettlement.
The agitation was called off in the afternoon following the intervention of Raigad MP Sunil Tatkare who reportedly promised to resolve the issue in four to five days.
NAVI MUMBAI: Local environmentalists have stated that as per Right to Information Act (RTI) records, there is no proper Coastal Regulatory Zone (CRZ) clearance to build the Jawaharlal Nehru Port Trust (JNPT) special economic zone (SEZ) project at the port area in Maharashtra s Navi Mumbai.
The greens have thus asked the state environment department to take remedial steps to restore the coastal biodiversity. As per records of the MCZMA, the information (that) pertaining to CRZ clearance to JNPT SEZ for implementing the SEZ project in Uran taluka of Raigad district is not available. This communique from the environment department was shared in response to our RTI application, said BN Kumar of NatConnect Foundation.
Environmentalists have pointed that this road expansion work had occurred after destroying scores of mangroves, over which the bypass road was built.
NAVI MUMBAI: The outstretched JNPT bypass road in Uran developed huge cracks since Tuesday night, leading to a traffic disruption for over 12 hours.
Environmentalists have pointed that this road expansion work had occurred after destroying scores of mangroves, over which the bypass road was built; hence the cracks seen now is due to nature striking back . We have written to the authorities that the cracks seen at the NH-348 bypass road near Pagote village, about 8 km away from JNPT, is a result of the haphazard destruction of mangroves and marshland to build the road. In an utter disregard to mangroves, the contractors dumped truckloads of earth and debris on the mangroves along the highway and levelled them for the road expansion and land required for flyovers. Nature is taking revenge now, said the director of NatConnect Fou
