Panaji (Goa): The Bombay High Court bench at Goa has set aside the order of the National Green Tribunal (NGT) which stayed the erection of shacks here, observing that there is no evidence of its adverse impact on the environment.

A bench of Chief Justice Naresh Harishchandra Patil and Justice M S Sonak passed the order on the petition filed by the Shacks Owners Welfare Society. It stated that the shacks are fabricated using eco-friendly, perishable material such as wood, bamboo and palm leaves.
