Delhi Ayurveda Clinic closed for Violation of Biomedical Waste rules: NGT tells doctor to approach DPCC
New Delhi: Responding to a petition filed by an Ayurveda doctor whose clinic was closed after violation of Bio-medical Waste Management Rules, 2016; the National Green Tribunal (NGT) has directed the practitioner to submit his viewpoint before the Delhi Pollution Control Committee (DPCC).
A bench headed by NGT Chairperson justice Adarsh Kumar Goel allowed the petitioner, Saleem, to appear before the DPCC on November 14 at 11.00 am to present his case so that the pollution monitoring body may pass a fresh order in the matter.
"Till then, the impugned order (of DPCC) may be treated as a notice to the appellant to which he may furnish a written response for consideration by the DPCC," the bench said.
The petitioner had approached the NGT challenging the October 4 order passed by the DPCC for closure of the clinic of the appellant and recovery of environmental compensation for non-compliance of the Bio-medical Waste Management Rules, 2016.
