Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court disposed of the Special Leave Petition filed by the Uttar Pradesh Pollution Control Board, challenging a Division Bench order that allowed a factory to operate despite concerns raised by the Board. The Court emphasized the necessity for a report from the Central Pollution Control Board before further proceedings, remitting the matter back to the High Court for expeditious disposal based on the awaited report. The interim order permitting the factory's operation will remain in effect until the High Court takes action.
