Judgment text excerpt
The Supreme Court disposed of the Civil Appeal No. 437 of 2013, stating that the Union of India should inform the National Green Tribunal about a new report from a High Level Working Group under the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986, which critiques recommendations from the Western Ghat Ecology Expert Panel Report. The Court did not express any opinion on the Solicitor General's submissions and granted liberty to the appellant to file an appropriate application with the Tribunal. The appeal was not entertained at this stage.
