Amid a row over the redefinition of the Aravallis, Congress leader Jairam Ramesh on Sunday posed four questions to Environment Minister Bhupender Yadav and claimed that the move will lead to fragmentation and undermining of the geographical and ecological integrity of the entire mountain range. In a letter to Yadav, Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh said there are understandably widespread concerns with the redefinition of the Aravalli Hills that restrict them to landforms having an elevation of 100 metres or more. ADVERTISEMENT"In this connection, please permit me to raise four specific questions for your consideration. Flat areas, tabletops, depressions and valleys falling within these delineated regions shall also be included as part of the hills," Ramesh posed.
