A panel, constituted by the Environment Ministry, will examine the "severity of the issues" involved in the development of Adani Port and Special Economic Zone (APSEZ) at Mundra in Gujarat's Kutch district.

The five-member committee, headed by green activist Sunita Narain, will examine several allegations including the alleged destruction of mangroves and violation of Environmental and CRZ clearance granted for the port development, a source said.
