Ludhiana January 25 Following the directions of the National Green Tribunal a committee which has been formed by the DC Ludhiana inspected the Bhai Chattar Singh Park site on Monday. Earlier an advocate Gurinderpreet Singh had moved the NGT against the MCs plan about setting up of a garbage dump inside Bhai Chatar Singh Park and in its vicinity. In September 2020 the NGT had ordered the Punjab Pollution Control Board and the Ludhiana District Magistrate to verify the facts and furnish a factual and action-taken report to it within two months. Notably at present garbage is dumped under the flyover alongside the Scooter Market opposite Bhai Chatar Singh Park but the market shopkeepers are suffering a lot due to the dump. A few years ago the MC had set up a structure on the park land for shifting of the scooter market dump. But the residents had strongly opposed move of shifting dump to the park land. The civic body later constructed a base along flyover wall near other side of the park. Gurinderpreet Singh a lawyer who lives near the park said “There should be no garbage dump at Bhai Chatar Singh Park and in its immediate vicinity. The dump structure from the park land should be removed.” — TNS
