Deliberate attempts to push Aravallis into danger can have far-reaching consequences: Sachin Pilot

Jaipur, 26/12: Congress leader Sachin Pilot on Friday claimed that 90 per cent of the Aravallis would not be protected under the redefinition of the hills, and warned that “deliberate attempts” to push the mountain range into danger could have far-reaching consequences, including the Thar desert expanding up to Delhi.

Attending the National Students’ Union of India’s (NSUI’s) march as part of their ‘Save Aravalli – Save the Future’ campaign, he pointed out that the Aravallis act as a security shield against air pollution, and in preserving groundwater.
