Mumbai: MPCB on Monday imposed a penalty of Rs 10 lakh on Mandale Metro rail project‘s implementing body for not complying with pollution control measures. After a personal hearing on Jan 3, MPCB member secretary Avinash Dhakne passed an elaborate order on the failure of the project-implementing agency to tackle pollution around the project.
Following an inspection on Dec 30, MPCB gave specific directives for controlling pollution. MPCB has asked the agency to provide adequate air pollution-control measures for dust emissions. All precautionary measures, as per guidelines for air pollution mitigation by the environment and climate change department, must be followed scrupulously, it said. — Prafulla Marpakwar
