bad been passed by the Division Bench in Civil Writ
Petition (PIL) No. 12876/2011 (Ved Prakash Joshi

The compliance report was to be filed by 29 th
January, 2016. The State Government was also
directed to issue notice to the persons who were
contributing to the pollution as to why they should
not pay compensation of Rs. 25,000/- and the same
be deposited in Environment Relief Fund. It was also
ordered that those who resist such claim, shall be
directed to be present before the Tribunal.
The learned counsel for the applicant made
available the copy of the notices issued to the
persons causing pollution, to show that order of the
Tribunal has not been complied with in letter and
spirit. Tribunal observed that the notices do not
disclose as to what the noticees had to do and even
if he is willing to pay, where the amount was to be
paid and if he is disputing then when he has to
appear before the Tribunal. The Tribunal clearly
observed as under that the notices issued are not in
compliance of the directions of the Tribunal.
"We are sorry to note this attitude. The state is
directed to comply with the directions in letter and
spirit, without failure or otherwise we will be
constrained to take appropriate action."
