Detailed Summary

The Department of Forests and Wildlife, Government of the National Capital Territory of Delhi, issued a notification on March 10, 2026 (F.No. 27389/WFD/COT/25-26/17624). This notification addresses an application (ID no. 27389) received by the Tree Officer (West Forest Division) from Sh. Akash Deep Sharma, EE (CVPD)-VI, CPWD, for permission under the Delhi Preservation of Trees Act, 1994 (Delhi Act 11 of 1994), for the transplantation/felling of 58 (revised to 49) trees. The application pertains to the construction of Building Executive Enclave Phase-I at Plot No. 36/38, Near Udhyog Bhawan metro station, K.

The notification was issued by order and in the name of the Lt. Governor, signed by VIJAY KUMAR BIDHURI, Secy. (Environment & Forests).
