New Delhi: The National Green Tribunal on Wednesday directed Sri Sri Ravi Shankar's Art of Living (AOL) to submit its response within three weeks on the inspection report of Yamuna flood plains here by an expert committee which concluded that its three-day 'World Culture Festival' extravaganza caused damage to the riverbed.
A bench headed by NGT Chairperson Justice Swatanter Kumar directed the expert committee, headed by Shashi Shekhar, Secretary of the Ministry of Water Resources, to quantify the damage and furnish a tentative cost for restoration of the area within 45 days.
The green panel granted liberty to the committee, also comprising senior scientist from National Environmental Engineering Research Institute, Professor C R Babu, Professor A K Gosain, Professor Brij Gopal and two more members, to seek assistance of a specialised agency in determining the cost of restoration.
