Enable Block: 

The crucial public hearing for getting environment clearances to the Gare coal block allotted to Jindal Steel and Power Limited (JSPL) in Raigarh district of Chhattisgarh would be held on Wednesday

The National Green Tribunal (NGT) announced that it might pass an order on Wednesday regarding the plea of restaurant-owners in Hauz Khas Village, who sought the reopening of their establishments shut down four days ago for running without proper clearances and discharging untreated waste.
