A bench headed by NGT Chairperson Justice Adarsh Kumar Goel imposed a cost of Rs 10 lakh on the Bruhat Bengaluru Mahanagara Palike (BBMP) which allowed construction and alteration of stormwater drain passing through the project site illegally. The order came on a petition filed by Bengaluru resident H P Rajanna against the project Godrej Reflections being built at Kasavanahalli village.


The tribunal said the penalty shall be utilised by preparing a restoration plan by the said authority with the assistance of the BBMP, state and central pollution control boards. Restoration plan shall be executed by the state wetland authority and BBMP which may be overseen by the pollution control boards, the tribunal said.
