The Aam Aadmi Party on Wednesday slammed Sena MLA Prakash Surve, who violated environmental laws as well as putting children at risk this Monday, ironically for a celebration at SGNP of Maharashtra Environment Minister Aaditya Thackeray’s birthday. The party demanded stringent action against the MLA and all involved in facilitating the event.

Surve under the pretense of organising a “Greenathon” drove vehicles in violation in SGNP rules, running over reptiles who come out during the monsoons. Speakers which are prohibited in the National Park were also used by Surve’s team. Students of nearby Municipal Schools were also made to participate in the event where according to videos uploaded by the Media an almost stampede like condition created by his team’s mismanagement. His son Raj Surve also used a gun to flag off the race that could have created a crisis.

“The event which was named a ‘Greenathon’ violated SGNP rules about vehicles on their roads. As this is the monsoon season many juvenile reptiles and othe animals use the SGNP roads and met their death under Surve’s wheels. How ironic that a celebration of the Environment Ministers Birthday was directly harming wildlife in a National Park.” said Aam Aadmi Party Mumbai Working President Sumitra Srivastava. “As if that was not enough, shocking visuals uploaded by the Media show that children were packed together as sardines for the start of the event. A live gun was used to flag it off which could have caused a stampede!” added Srivastava

The Aam Aadmi Party demanded that appropriate action be taken immediately against MLA Prakash Surve and the other organisers of the event. An investigation must also be launched against SGNP officials who allowed this event totake place in violation of their rules as well as those Municipal Schools who allowed their students to take part in this risky activity.
