Surat: The National Green Tribunal (NGT) directed the Dahej-based Yasashvi Rasayan Private Limited once again on Wednesday to deposit Rs 25,000 compensation each to the 4,800 villagers who were displaced in major blast that took place in the company in June 2020. Upholding its previous order, the green watchdog has asked the district collector of Bharuch to comply with the order within one month.
In its reply, the company stated that Rs 3.10 crore was already paid as redressal and expressed its willingness to deposit further Rs 1.29 crore within two days. However, it raised objection to the order asking it to pay Rs 25,000 each to the 4,800 villagers displaced at the time of the incident.
