Shivaji memorial: SC issues notice to Centre, Maharashtra govt over refusal to restrain authorities from going ahead with project

New Delhi: The Supreme Court has sought responses from the Centre and Maharashtra government on a plea challenging the Bombay High Court order which had refused to restrain authorities from taking steps regarding the proposed Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj Memorial project in Arabian Sea. A bench comprising Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi and Justice SK Kaul issued notices on the plea which has challenged the 2 November, 2018, order of the high court. [caption id=“attachment_2669940” align=“alignleft” width=“380”]Representational image. Wikicommon Representational image. Wikicommon[/caption] Advocate Nishant R Katneshwarkar, who appeared for Maharashtra, said that while issuing a notice on the plea, the bench orally told him to ask the authorities not to proceed with the construction activity there. The petitioner NGO, Conservation Action Trust, had moved the high court challenging the 23 February, 2015 order of the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEF&CC) granting environmental and coastal regulation zone clearance to the Rs 3,600 crore project in Mumbai. It had sought interim relief that stay should be granted on the order and the authorities restrained from taking further steps with regard to the project. The petitioner had claimed in the high court that an amendment in a clause of the Coastal Zone Notification 2011 by a 1 7 February, 2015, notification of the MoEF&CC was “illegal” as it permitted the Centre to dispense with the requirement of public hearing in such projects. The state government had opposed the plea in the high court and had said that clearances were taken for the project from different authorities. It had argued that final environmental and CRZ clearance of 23 February, 2015, was granted by the MoEF&CC after a detailed study and after ascertaining the compliance of all requirements and after following proper procedure. The high court, while rejecting the petitioner’s request for interim relief, had noted in its order that the state has said that the memorial project does not involve rehabilitation and resettlement of public, and the site is located away from human habitation. “It also cannot be overlooked that the project is considered by the state government to be of national importance,” the high court had noted in its order.
