インドの最高裁判所は,汚染問題により2018年に閉鎖されたタミル・ナドゥのThothukudiで,Vedantan Groupの銅製粉工場再開の要請を却下した. The Supreme Court in India has dismissed Vedanta Group's request to reopen its copper smelting plant in Thoothukudi, Tamil Nadu, which was closed in 2018 due to pollution concerns. 閉幕は,13人が死亡した抗議デモに続いていた. The closure followed a protest where 13 people were killed. 裁判所は,当該地方住民の健康と福祉の重要性を強調し,当該工場の閉鎖を図るためのこれまでの決定の再考の訴えを却下した. The court emphasized the importance of local residents' health and welfare, rejecting the company's plea to reconsider the previous decision to keep the plant closed.
