(1.) We see no reason to interfere with the impugned order. However, it is admitted that the appellants' view has not been taken into account by the Committee constituted for the purpose of this project. We, therefore, consider it appropriate to direct that the Committee shall give a hearing to the appellants on a fixed date and consider the objections and the evidence produced by them in their support. The Committee shall thereupon accommodate the appellants' objections and suggest any suitable modification, if required, which shall be carried out by the respondent-Authorities. If the Committee does not uphold the objections it may give reasons. In that case, the appellants may approach the National Green Tribunal. The appellants shall be entitled to resort to any remedy available to them in law.
