In Pune, a major hurdle has been cleared for construction of a 2.3-km road along the Mutha river bed from Vitthalwadi to the Katraj-Dehu Road bypass on National Highway-4. The National Green Tribunal on July 11 gave conditional approval to the Pune Municipal Corporation (PMC) to construct the road along the river. The tribunal said the conditions would bring about a balance between development and environment.
