NGT to continue hearing plea on damage to Yamuna floodplains today

NEW DELHI: The National Green Tribunal (NGT) on Thursday will continue to hear plea alleging environmental degradation on Yamuna floodplains due the World Culture Festival, which was organised last year.

Earlier in the month, after the NGT stated that spiritual leader Sri Sri Ravi Shankar's Art of Living (AOL) was responsible for destroying the Yamuna floodplain during the 'World Culture Festival', the foundation today cried foul while terming it to be a 'conspiracy.'

The foundation also asserted that its legal team will study the NGT report and decide on the future course of action.
