New Delhi:
The Supreme Court on Wednesday ripped into the Commission for Air Quality Management – a central government panel to monitor air pollution and quality in the national capital region – calling it a “toothless wonder” and criticising it for even failing to follow directions.
No member of the CAQM – battered by the court this month for “total non-compliance” with the law – is even qualified to sit on the panel, an irate top court said today, as it also reprimanded the Punjab and Haryana governments for not prosecuting individuals violating air pollution laws.
