Delhi Metro Rail Corporation has sought RMB's clearance for construction in the Southern Ridge, Central Ridge and parts of the Morphological Ridge for its Phase IV part of the project. RMB deferred a decision on this and will constitute a committee to assess South Municipal Corporation of Delhi's proposal to dump the inert waste mined from its landfills in four pits of Asola Bhatti Mines, three of which fall in the Asola Bhatti Wildlife Sanctuary, part of the Southern Ridge. The panel will submit its report in a month and a decision will be taken after considering that report, experts, however, are against the proposal. C R Babu, Head of Centre for Environmental Management of Degraded Ecosystem, said that the pits hold rainwater and dumping of waste can contaminate the groundwater. The wildlife habitat can be adversely impacted as well. RMB also cleared the construction of the city's first wildlife rescue-cum-rehabilitation centre at Rajokri.
