Environmentalists are urging the Maharashtra government to expedite the formal protection of the DPS Flamingo Lake in Navi Mumbai.
Although it was labeled a 'conservation reserve' last April under the leadership of Chief Minister Devendra Fadnavis, the necessary Government Resolution remains pending.
This delay keeps management with CIDCO instead of the forest department, endangering its ecological status and impacting bird refuges.
