National Green Tribunal has directed the ministry of
environment, forest and climate change and the forest department of Haryana to
conduct a tree survey and create a database of trees and undergrowth in Mangar
off the Gurgaon-Faridabad highway. Mangar Bani, a grove in the area, is held
sacred by locals. The report has to be submitted to the tribunal within eight
weeks and may be crucial in giving this pristine patch of Aravalis a protected
forest status.
