The Supreme Court upheld the National Green Tribunal's order directing the Pune Municipal Corporation to close the Garbage Processing Plant operated by Noble Exchange Environment Solution Pune LLP, citing the need for compliance with environmental norms as per the guidelines issued by the Central Pollution Control Board. The Court emphasized the 'polluter pays' principle, allowing the Maharashtra Pollution Control Board to recover environmental compensation for violations.
