    THE MANGROVES ARE DYING DUE TO THE ESSAR PORT RECLAMATION. THE MANGROVES PATCH OF KADIYA BET WILL BE DISAPPEARED MOSTLY AFTER DEC 2011. SEA WATER IS NOT REACHING IN THE MANGROVES DUE TO PORT DEVELOPMENT AND SAND ACCRETION IN MANGROVE AREA. NO SEA WATER FLOW IS MAINTAINED BY ESSAR PORT AS CONDITIONED IN ENVIRONMENTAL CLEARANCE. ADANI PORT IS AGAIN RECLAIMING FOR PORT WHICH WILL BE THE LAST NAIL IN THE COFFIN OF MANGROVE OF KADIYA BET. THE LAND BELONGS TO MANGROVE WILL BE [SANDWICHED MANGROVE PATCH] GRABED BY ESSAR AND ADANI PORT MOST PROBABLY AND WILL BE DE NOTIFIED AS MANGROVE FOREST IN NEAR FUTURE AS MOST OF THE MANGROVE FOREST IS CLEARED RIGHT NOW IN MARCH 2011.
