Madhya Pradesh HC issues notices to PS WRD, collector, over encroachment on Gwalior dams

The Madhya Pradesh High Court has issued show cause notices to senior officials for not acting on a 2019 order to clear encroachments from dams around Gwalior. The lack of action has worsened the city’s water crisis, with damaged dam gates and illegal colonies reducing water levels. The court emphasized urgent measures are needed.
