The Punjab Water Resources Department has informed the National Green Tribunal (NGT) that disciplinary action has been initiated against three officials and penalties of around Rs 28 lakh have been imposed on six contractors for damaging the forest strip along the Sirhind Canal during the canal remodelling and concrete lining work in February 2025. However, the NGT has said compliance reports filed by the departments are incomplete and has sought a fresh status report while directing that prosecution proceedings against the violators be pursued as per law.
