Sheo MLA Ravindra Singh Bhati Warns New 100-Metre Norm Rings 'Death Knell' For 90% Of Aravali

In this Special Report, Sheo MLA Ravindra Singh Bhati raises an alarm over the new Supreme Court definition of the Aravali hills, stating that excluding hills under 100 metres will remove legal protection from over 90% of the range. Bhati calls this the ‘death knell’ for the region, already plagued by rampant mining. He highlights the contradiction in the state government’s stance, noting they allocated ₹250 crore for Aravali development in the 2025-26 budget but are now ‘sleeping soundly’ while the heritage is destroyed. Invoking the legacy of the Khejrali movement, Bhati urges all political parties and the youth of Rajasthan to unite and fight for the environment, warning that the destruction will impact the entire NCR region.
