Will notify just 75 acres of Najafgarh jheel as wetland, Haryana tells NGT

Haryana submitted a plan to the NGT to designate 75 acres of the Najafgarh jheel as a wetland, responding to the tribunal’s earlier directives. The state outlined several water management projects targeted for completion by 2027. Intach, the applicant NGO, argued that the wetland size is significantly understated, citing previous environmental plans and leakage issues affecting the jheel’s health.
