A two-judge bench of the Supreme Court on January 18 ordered public sector undertaking Numaligarh Refinery Ltd (NRL) to demolish whatever is left of a controversial 2.2-kilometre boundary wall topped with barbed wire that lies in the middle of an elephant corridor in the proposed Deopahar Reserve Forest, barely a few kilometres from the Kaziranga National Park and Tiger Reserve in Assam’s Golaghat district.
The bench of Justices D Y Chandrachud and M R Shah was listening to the appeal of NRL against the order of the National Green Tribunal (NGT) dated August 3, 2018, in which the tribunal had refused to review its order of demolition passed in the year 2016.
