From our Special Correspondent
SILCHAR, Dec 24: Faced with the boulder crisis and its resultant effect on all sorts of civilian constructions works of the State government, the Cachar district contractors’ association, PWD wing, has impressed upon the Deputy Commissioner of Cachar to exercise his good offices with the Divisional Forest officer for issue of forest permits in order to enable them to resume their allotted works. It is to be recalled that following the ban by an order of the Gauhati High Court on the quarrying from river Madhura in the light of a public interest litigation (PIL), procurement of forest materials has been prohibited by the divisional forest officer of Cachar. The ban has been continuing since July, 2010.
