order is causing harm to public health and environment and
it be complied with expeditiously.
The MoEF in its plea had said that for effective compliance
of the order four months are required -- two for wide
circulation of draft notification for inviting comments, and
two for incorporation of comments, finalisation of
notification and obtaining approval from Ministry of Law
and Justice.
The tribunal had earlier said its order was based on a report
of an expert committee, which also comprised a
representative of the MoEF, and is enforceable without
permission of any other authority with penal
consequences.
