Dr. Lubna Sarwath Co-Convenor vs The State Of Telangana on 6 July, 2022

18. District Environment Plan of each District in terms of order of this Tribunal dated 05.07.2021 in OA 360/2018, Shree Nath Sharma vs. Union of India & Ors. should also cover the wetlands in the District. If necessary, the said plans be revised accordingly by the District Magistrates concerned by providing that the core activity for conservation and protection of wetlands may primarily focus on not discharging of sewage, disposal of solid waste and other wastes, preventing siltation, demarcation of wetlands/flood protection zone and removal of encroachments. There should be regular monitoring of water quality under water quality management programme at strategic locations (around 10 locations) to ensure that it is compliant with TC/FC norms. Water quality of the wetlands with respect to BOD needs to be less than 3 mg/l, feacal coliform should meet norms and contamination due to toxic constituents either directly or through runoff from the catchment should be prevented. Biodiversity of the wetlands needs to be maintained. Monitoring of steps for compliance of Rules in relation to such Wetlands ought to be at District level by the District Magistrate, at State level by State Wetland Authority and at National level by National Wetland Authority. We are confident that such initiatives in monitoring will go a long way in protecting the Wetlands which have significant environmental functions."
