The Supreme Court today held that development was more important than Tigers and chided the NGOs petitioning against it for trying to stall development. The tragedy is this area is a corridor for wildlife between various tiger reserves in the area and runs through the PENCH TIGER RESERVE. So its obvious wild animals will use this path and be mowed down by fast moving traffic. There are alternate routes available. Earlier the Prime Minister and the Ministry of Environment were petitioned to no avail.
Pl ask the Chief Justice of Supreme Court of India to review the decision and protect our precious Tigers from extinction
