NGT orders chief secretary of Gujarat and Director Industrial Safety and Health to file a response in the fire and blast incident at Aether Industries Ltd plant in Sachin GIDC. The case has been transferred to Western Zonal Bench of NGT in Pune. Gujarat Pollution Control Board and AIL have already appeared in the hearing. NGT ordered the parties to submit their response in three weeks.
The Haryana government is neither taking orders to stop illegal mining in the Aravalis “seriously” nor is it “complying” with them. The National Green Tribunal (NGT) observed last week, directing the state to submit an action-taken report within three weeks and deposit Rs 10,000 in a week.
However, in its recent order, the NGT noted that the report did not mention what action has been taken by the authorities to control illegal mining in “quantified terms”.
