The Communist Party of India (Marxist) has strongly opposed the Chhattisgarh Forest Department's decision to allow the Kente Extension Coal Project, which it said would result in the destruction of 1742 hectares of dense forest land.
Senior party leader Brinda Karat said that the BJP is politicising Ram Temple event.
In her letter, written jointly with Delhi CPI (M) Secretary K M Tewari, she said “It is most unfortunate that some police personnel suffered injuries during the course of duty.”
The proposals tend to dilute the rights of the States to notify forests thereby further centralizing authority in the central Government. Further centralization is another ground to oppose the proposals, Karat said.
In a letter to the NHRC chairperson, Karat referred to her complaint to the commission on the incident in 2016, and requested for a reconsideration of the closure decision.
