Rajasthan govt points out own flaws in report on Ramgarh dam to high court [1]

JAIPUR: The state government's report on the initial action plan in dealing with encroachments and other unplanned and illegal construction activities in the Ramgarh dam's catchment area submitted to Rajasthan High Court has exposed its own flaws.

Admitting that the encroachments exist, the government report mentioned that in the Ramgarh dam area there is rampant illegal mining, illegal borewells, encroachment of forest land and reduction in size of catchment area resulting in depletion of both surface water and underground water table.
