11/6/2024 10:08:34 PM
Early Times Report
JAMMU, Nov 6: In a Public Interest Litigation PIL on preservation and conservation of Dal Lake which was initiated in 2002 on the basis of a letter of one, Syed Iqbal Tahir Geelani, a student of 6th Semester LLB University of Kashmir, Srinagar.
The letter highlighted the miserable conditions of the various water bodies and lakes which at one time were the lifeline of the valley. Since 2002, the Court has passed various orders for the cleaning, development and upkeep of the lakes, especially the Dal, A Division Bench of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh High Court Comprising Justice Atul Sreedharan and Justice Puneet Gupta, observed that Learned Amicus Curiae has taken this Court through various orders passed in the past by this Court, which reflect its grave concern and has also recorded non-compliance with previous orders passed by this Court earlier.
DB said that the need to read and appreciate these orders are essential to understand the meandering course that the case was taken till date over a period of 22 years. The same would continue on the next date of hearing, but by way of direction, we deem it essential to direct the respondents to place before this Court on the next date of hearing without fail the reports of the test conducted by the Pollution Control Committee pertaining to the water of Dal Lake from the past six months. Necessarily this report must provide this Court with the current value of the state of water of the Dal Lake, the permissible limits of the various constituents and a brief opinion expressing whether values are within standard or below standard.
DB further directed that the said report must reach the office of the Advocate General one week before the date of hearing with advance copy to be served upon the learned Amicus Curiae, which shall be the responsibility of the Advocate General's Office.
