The Konkan Divisional Commissioner has ordered immediate action on complaints regarding mangroves destruction, including installation of CCTV cameras and satellite imagery for protection. The committee also discussed issues like transfer of mangroves areas to the forest department and removal of debris. The High Court is already seized of the contempt petition filed by NGO Vanshakti, which claims that the mangroves have not been handed over to the forest department. Some remain cautious, stating that the committee has been passing directives with little action. | Mumbai news
