The National Green Tribunal has called for a status update on the recovery of ₹5.39 crore from stone crushers operating in Haryana, following a prior ruling.
The National Green Tribunal (NGT) has issued a notice seeking an update on the recovery of ₹5.39 crore from stone crushers in Haryana. The request follows a previous order that directed the industry operators to repay the amount to the government.
The case stems from allegations that the stone crushers violated environmental regulations, leading to fines and a financial penalty of ₹5.39 crore. The NGT’s notice asks the parties to report on the progress of the repayment and any obstacles faced.
If the recovery is not completed, the tribunal may impose further penalties or enforce additional measures to ensure compliance. The matter highlights the enforcement of environmental and financial accountability in the state’s mining sector.
Stakeholders are expected to respond by the deadline set by the tribunal, after which the NGT will decide on further action to secure the outstanding amount.
