Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court addressed the maintenance of the dam's effective height for submergence, confirming that it shall not exceed 90 meters until further construction is permitted as per the majority judgment's conditions. The Court recorded the statements of the Union of India and the State of Gujarat regarding this limitation, indicating no need for clarification of the judgment. Additionally, a typographical error in the majority judgment was corrected, substituting 'Rajasthan' with 'Maharashtra'.
