The Issue
The Aravalli Range, a natural marvel spanning several states in India, is not just a series of mountains and forests. This unique region is a lifeline for millions of people, providing vital resources and environmental protection. However, rampant legal and illegal mining activities are threatening to destroy the delicate balance of this ecosystem. This petition calls for urgent action to address this critical issue.
Recent decisions by the Supreme Court of India have resulted in policies that inadvertently support both legal and illegal mining activities. These decisions disregard the constitutional obligations embedded in Article 51A, which emphasize the fundamental duties of each citizen to protect and improve the natural environment. The current situation reflects a significant deviation from these constitutional principles.
Mining in Aravalli is not just an environmental issue; it is a social one that affects millions of livelihoods. The destruction of this natural wonder leads to increased air and water pollution, loss of biodiversity, and severe impacts on local communities who depend on the Aravalli's resources for their day-to-day lives.
To address this, we demand an immediate halt to all forms of mining activity in the Aravalli until comprehensive environmental assessments are conducted. We urge the government to reconsider the policies and decisions that prioritize short-term economic gains over long-term environmental sustainability. It is vital for the Supreme Court to revisit and revise its decisions to ensure alignment with the constitutional mandates of environmental protection.
Furthermore, we call upon governmental and non-governmental organizations to take active roles in preserving the Aravalli Range. Implement stricter monitoring mechanisms to prevent illegal mining and enforce penalties on those who violate environmental laws.
As citizens, we must raise our voices to protect our environment, our community, and our future. By signing this petition, you are taking a stand to safeguard the Aravalli Range for generations to come. Join us in urging the government and the Supreme Court to act now.
