The Supreme Court recently prohibited construction and development within 100 metres of the Jojari River in Rajasthan due to serious environmental concerns. The Court also imposed restrictions on hazardous industries along the river to address pollution and environmental degradation.
The Jojari River is a seasonal river that originates in Pandalu village in Nagaur district, Rajasthan. It flows through Jodhpur and merges with the Luni River near Balotra city.
The Jojari is the only right-bank tributary of the Luni River. It is also the only branch of the Luni River system that does not originate in the Aravalli Mountains.
The Jojari River is facing severe contamination due to the discharge of industrial waste and untreated sewage. The river is particularly affected by chemical-laden wastewater from textile and steel industries in Jodhpur, which has contributed to its environmental degradation.
The Supreme Court took suo motu cognizance of a news documentary highlighting the severe environmental crisis in the Jojari River region.
The Court prohibited construction and development within 100 metres of the river, as reported in the source. It also prohibited hazardous industries within 500 metres on either side of the existing flood line along the river's course.
