नागपुर : एक तरफ तो सरकार पर्यावरण संरक्षण को लेकर चिंतित है।इसके साथ ही जहां पूरे शहर में अवैध अतिक्रमण की घटनाओं पर सख्ती से कार्यवाही की जा रही है ।वहीं दूसरी ओर शहर के भूमि आर्केड नवरात्रा रोड क्वेटा कॉलोनी ,लकड़ गंज के अपार्टमेंट में अवैध रूप से पेड़ों को काटा जा रहा है।बताया जा रहा है के यहां पर जो पेड़ काटने की गतिविधि चल रही है।उसकी शासन से कोई अनुमति नहीं ली गई है। बिना अनुमति ही पेड़ की कटाई चल रही है । और बताया यह भी जा रहा है के अपार्टमेंट में कटाई का मुख्य कारण अवैध निर्माण करके शेड डालना है।
बिना अनुमति पेड़ काटने का यह पहला मामला नहीं है । इससे पहले भी कई ऐसे मामले सामने आए है लेकिन प्रशाशन इस पर कब कार्यवाही करता है यह देखने वाली बात होगी।साथ ही में यह घटना वन विभाग की लापरवाही की ओर भी इशारा करती है ।कुछ लोग मनमानी से पेड़ काटे जा रहें है। प्रशाशन को इस स्तिथि में कुछ कड़े कदम उठाने की जरुरत है ताकि बिना अनुमति कोई हरे भरे पेड़ को नष्ट सके।
Nagpur: Nagpur Municipal Corporation (NMC) probably brought tree officers in line with The Maharashtra (Urban Areas) Conservation of Trees Act, 1975 for the first time in its history.
Nevertheless, this has also opened a Pandora’s box as all these years the garden superintendent managed the charge of tree officer’s position, a post that is below the assistant commissioner’s level. An officer holding the rank of an assistant commissioner or above should be appointed as tree officer as provided for in the Act. A lawyer has now challenged the legal validity of previously issued notices/orders by the tree officer.
According to The Maharashtra (Urban Areas) Conservation of Trees Act, 1975, tree officer has tree conservation duties, conducting surveys to record the number of trees and their condition, inspecting new plantations apart from managing tree felling applications.
Garden superintendent had been assigned the responsibility of tree officer in the NMC for decades. The garden superintendent post is equal to the rank of the superintendent as per the administrative hierarchy of NMC. Nevertheless, the rank of superintendent is below that of the assistant commissioner.
Garden Superintendent Amol Chorpagar held the charge as a tree officer and issued notices about cutting large numbers of trees in Bharat Van, Empress Van, and Smart City Project.
A couple of months ago, lawyer and social activist Ankita Shah had told the civic chief that the breach of the Act was brought to his notice. She had requested that all Chorpagar alerts be set aside.
Municipal commissioner Tukaram Mundhe rejigged the entire administrative structure on Wednesday, naming 20 department heads (HoDs). Three officers— Chorpagar, Mahesh Moroney, and Dr. Pradip Dasarwar — were charged additionally as deputy municipal commissioner. The deputy commissioner (garden) and tree officer are assigned additionally to Chorpagar.
The post of deputy commissioner is above assistant commissioner and thus the position of tree officer has been granted a validly ranked officer fee.
Mundhe’s predecessor Abhijit Bangar had turned down MahaMetro’s request to transplant Bharat Van trees. However, no action was taken on the tree officer’s notices regarding Empress Van and the Smart City Project. Therefore, it was supposed to set aside the notices but no decision has yet been made.

Nagpur: Ramnath Sonawane, the outgoing Chief Executive Officer of Nagpur Smart and Sustainable City Development Corporation Limited (NSSCDCL), said Wednesday that the Smart City office here has helped the state police solve 1,800 cases of crime since its inception.
“The CCTV cameras installed under the Safe and Smart City project have also helped crack important cases, including 90 murders, eve-teasing, robbery thefts, etc,” said Sonawane, who will act as Secretary of the Maharashtra Water Resources Regulatory Authority on 14 February.
On Wednesday, Sonawane presented his resignation as CEO of NSSCDCL to its Chairman and Chief Secretary of State, Pravin Pardeshi.
Sonawane was transferred to Nagpur Municipal Corporation as an additional municipal commissioner in April 2016. In 2017, he received an additional charge from the CEO of NSSCDCL. “On June 30, 2017, the city was chosen as one of the 100 smart cities. Since then, the city has been the first or second to work in Smart City, “said the outgoing CEO.
He admitted, however, that the work of the Smart City is going on at a slow pace. He blamed this on two factors— frequent rainfall and legal issues related to land procurement for land-based development.
“The deadline for the smart city mission is June 2021, but the NSSCDCL will not be able to meet the target,” said Sonawane.
So far, the NSSCDCL has received Rs 439 crore (Rs 196 crore from the central government, Rs 143 crore from the state government and Rs 100 crore from the Nagpur Improvement Trust) to carry out 21 different projects, but only two works have been completed to date.
The NSSCDCL is to construct 52 km in Pardi-Punapur, of which 16 roads are under construction. In addition, four elevated storage reservoirs and nine of the 28 bridges are under construction.
Of this, the NSSCDCL has spent 100 per cent of the Center’s share and 20 per cent of the State’s share on works such as a safe and smart city project (Rs 103 crore), road works worth Rs 65 crore and Rs12 crore for housing schemes, he said.
Sonawane added that he had a good relationship with leaders of all political parties, including City MP Nitin Gadkari, former Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, etc.
