Passions of the wild

Gurgaon: Forest land and wild animals are under threat in Haryana as garbage is being constantly dumped in the area. 
 
The garbage dump on the road connecting Delhi and Haryana border has become a virtual death trap for the wild species. 
 
"On this stretch I find these dead animals every third day. It was nilgai and jackal earlier, and now more endangered hyaena," said Satinder Mand, who drives daily on the Faridabad Gurgaon road. 
 
He has been documenting deaths of the wild animals caused by the heaps of solid waste taking over Aravali forest – the only green lung of the National Capital Region. 
 
"All these wild animals get killed because of this only. They get attracted, come on the road, and get killed accidentally in the night," said Mand. 
 
A few kilometers ahead is a solid waste treatment plant that has come up again on the Aravali forest. 
 
The shocking aspect of it is a document available with CNN-IBN. It shows that the Environment Ministry gave permission in 2008 to divert seven hectares of the forestland to help set up the plant despite the municipal rules which clearly say that the landfill sites shall be away from forest areas and national parks.
