Jammu, Aug 5: A Division Bench of Jammu & Kashmir High Court Comprising Chief Justice Pankaj Mithal and Justice Wasim Sadiq Nargal Chief Engineer to lay down the maximum limit of such vessels/boats that can be plied and used in a particular lake especially in the Dal Lake.
This significant order has been passed in a petition filed by petitioner who has applied for grant of licence to ply Jet-Ski, Paddle Boats, Water Ball and Water Boat in the Nehru Park area of the Dal Lake, Srinagar. The grievance of the petitioner is that his application for grant of above licence has not been considered by the respondents.
