Supreme Court Dismisses Vedanta's Review Plea on February Judgment for Thoothukudi Copper Smelting Plant Closure
Nov 16, 2024, 07:06 AM
The Supreme Court of India has dismissed a review petition filed by Vedanta Limited regarding the closure of its copper smelting plant in Thoothukudi, Tamil Nadu. This decision reaffirms the court's earlier ruling from February, which had denied a directive for the plant's reopening. The dismissal of the plea has significant implications for Vedanta, as the company has been seeking to overturn the order that led to the shutdown of its operations in the region. The court's ruling follows a series of legal challenges faced by Vedanta in relation to its Thoothukudi facility, which has been a contentious issue amid environmental and regulatory concerns.
