SHIMLA: While dealing with the matter of remedial action against failure of the authorities in Himachal Pradesh in preventing pollution of rivers Balad, Sirsa and Satluj in Baddi Industrial area in Solan district, the National Green Tribunal has dismissed the review application filed by Union Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEF&CC) seeking the review of Tribunal’s April 6 judgment.
In the review application, stand of the MoEF&CC was that since the standards in the draft notification have not been included in the final notification, order of this Tribunal is not called for. But Tribunal did not find any merit in the review application by saying that issue in question was duly considered and rehearing cannot be allowed in the guise of a review application.
