Supreme Court bars Bihar from filling Darbhanga ponds without its approval
The Supreme Court has ordered the Bihar government to halt the filling of historic ponds in Darbhanga. The directive came after allegations that the state was encroaching on water bodies under the pretext of developing public amenities. The court made clear that no action affecting these water bodies can proceed without its explicit permission. The state's beautification project had targeted Gangasagar, Digghi, and Harahi Lake for rejuvenation. Authorities have been instructed to ensure the existing boundaries and areas of these ponds remain undisturbed.
