Arnab's Epic Face-Off With Former CJI BR Gavai On The Aravalli Verdict | WATCH Super Exclusive Interview

Arnab joins with Former CJI BR Gavai for an exclusive interview on the Aravallis Issue. In a significant legal shift, the Supreme Court of India officially narrowed the definition of the Aravalli Hills, believed to be around 670 million years old, a move that environmentalists warn could strip protection from over 90% of the ancient mountain range.

The apex court's ruling has sparked a debate over the survival of one of the world's oldest mountain ranges.

By adopting the recommendations of a committee led by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC), the Apex Court's ruling may result in increased mining operations in regions previously shielded by strict environmental regulations, according to experts.

Spanning 650 km from Delhi to Gujarat, the Aravalli Range acts as a vital ecological backbone for Northern India. These mountains serve as a massive natural water-recharge system, feeding essential rivers like the Chambal, Sabarmati, and Luni.

The region is also a geological treasure trove, rich in sandstone, limestone, marble, and granite along with lead, zinc, copper, gold, and tungsten.
