Daily Current Affairs / Supreme Court Defines Aravalli Hills for Enhanced Conservation
Category : National Published on: December 24 2025
The Supreme Court of India has accepted a uniform definition of the Aravalli Hills, directing ecological and geological conservation rather than revenue-based measures. It emphasized protection of the entire Aravalli landscape, spanning Gujarat, Rajasthan, Haryana, and Delhi, and mandated a comprehensive Management Plan for Sustainable Mining by ICFRE. Core zones, tiger reserves, wetlands, and CAMPA plantations will be inviolate. The decision strengthens initiatives like Matri Van and Aravalli Green Wall, supporting biodiversity, water recharge, and climate resilience while curbing desertification.
