SC asks CPCB to file report on impact of industries running in Delhi-NCR on pollution

New Delhi, Nov 27 (KNN) The Supreme Court directed the Central Pollution Control Board (CPCB) to file a report on the impact on pollution due to industries running in Delhi-NCR in order to access whether there is a need to re-locate them.

The Supreme Court has also asked Delhi government about the kind of factories that are operational in the national capital.

"Which are the industries which are running in Delhi? What is the impact on pollution?," a bench of justices Arun Mishra and Deepak Gupta said.

"We want to know are they contributing to pollution and whether they have to be re-located," the bench observed.

The counsel appearing for the Delhi government told the top court that no polluting industries are operational here.

The bench has posted the matter for hearing on January 6 next year.
