If the destruction of Biodiversity Rich Wetlands behind NRI Complex for making golf course and residential tower really concerns you, then pls raise your voice immediately. Log into https://grievances.maharashtra.gov.in/en Click: Post Grievances Select : Level of Administration - Mantralaya Select : District Thana Select : Taluka Thana Select : Department Environment Select : Nature of Grievance: Eco Sensitive Zones Grievance: (type below text) More than 80 hectares of biodiversity rich wetlands and mangroves on Palm Beach Road , Nerul is being handed over to a private builder for residential and commercial development in name of golf course by changing the land use from No Development Zone to Regional Park Zone and Residential Zone.The area is rich in biodiversity, has reserved mangrove forests , wetlands and is the habitat of many bird species including migratory birds like flamingos. Its biodiversity / marine life has been studied by Bombay Natural History Society (BNHS) and TERI who have issued various reports recommending that the area’s biodiversity be preserved. We are surprised that CIDCO proposes to build a Golf Course when it has recently built one in Kharghar just over 10 kms away. CIDCO, as a responsible Planning Body, should preserve the biodiversity of the city and ensure residential buildings are not built in area which is a habitat of birds and has protected mangroves and wetlands. But CIDCO has been taking approvals from different ministries and government bodies like MCZMA by making statements that there are no wetlands in this area. Please ask authorities to take back the notification and approvals for change in land use obtained on the basis of false and misleading statements. Develop this area as eco tourism spot instead of destroying wetlands for one more golf course and residential towers in Navi Mumbai. ACT NOW or LOSE YOUR BIODIVERSITY RICH WETLANDS FOR EVER !!!
