Fact-finding committee

A three-judge Bench, led by Justice U.U. Lalit, did not budge regardless of LG Polymers, represented by senior supporter Mukul Rohatgi, highlighting that numerous committees had actually been formed by numerous bodies, consisting of the Andhra Pradesh High Court, the National Human Rights Commission and the Centre, into the gas leakage which happened on May 7.

The business also questioned how the NGT might take suo motu cognisance of the gas leak and form a fact-finding committee led by previous High Court judge, Justice B. Seshasayana Reddy, when the High Court, a constitutional court, was already seized of the matter
