The National Green Tribunal today directed the Delhi government to immediately stop all types of demonstrations and protests on jantar mantar. The NGT said jantar manta site has become a battleground for protesters.

The bench, chaired by Justice RS Rathore, said that the area has become a permanent place for spreading dirt by protesters. Institutions like New Delhi Municipal Council and Police have failed to keep cleanliness around Jantar Mantar . They have also failed to ensure peaceful and comfortable life for the people of the area.

The bench said that there are some demonstrators who bring cows on Jantar Mantar Road in the name of cow protection, which increases the problem for the residents.

Tribunal said that the continuous use of this area by protesters is a violation of environmental laws including the Air Pollution Prevention and Control Act, 1981. He said that people living in the vicinity of it have the right to live in a peaceful and comfortable manner and there should be a pollution free environment at their habitations.
NGT was hearing a petition filed by Varun Seth and others. It was alleged in the petition that movement and procession performed by social groups, political parties, NGOs on Jantar Mantar is a major source of noise pollution in the region.

The plea had said regular protests “violate their right to live in a peaceful and healthy environment, right to silence, right to sleep and right to life with dignity.”
