Why in news
The Supreme Court directed National Environmental Engineering Research Institute (NEERI) to assess the pollution impact of glass industries near the Taj Mahal.
The court warned that if NEERI's report shows pollution, it may order the removal or shifting of these industries.
Government agencies are instructed to fully cooperate with NEERI during the assessment.
The Uttar Pradesh Pollution Control Board was told to form a team to inspect the units listed in a recent State affidavit.
This team must provide an interim report on the pollutants produced by these industries.
The court earlier criticized the Taj Trapezium Zone authority for not taking proper steps to protect the Taj Mahal.
