Quotes
The petition filed through advocate Meenaz Kakalia
The legal document submitted to the Bombay High Court by the Maharashtra Small Scale Traditional Fish Worker’s Union.
“The construction of the roads and bridges across water bodies where fishing activities are carried out by members of the petitioner who are traditional fisherfolk has led to the blocking of the navigational channel of boats. Apart from this, the reclamation being carried out in the water body for the purpose of erecting the stilts of the bridge has led to the deposit of muck and silt, thereby adversely impacting the waterbody and consequently the fish stock.”
