NEW DELHI: The National Green Tribunal has sought a report from the Haryana State Pollution Control Board and Faridabad District Magistrate on a plea alleging release of fly ash into the environment by a thermal power plant.
A bench headed by NGT Chairperson Justice Adarsh Kumar Goel directed the Board and the district magistrate to look into the matter and take appropriate action in accordance with law. They were directed to submit a factual and action taken report in the matter within a month.
