Petitioner is a Co-operative Society. It had set up a common service centre for coir products of small scale producers. Petitioner wants to lay a pipe as per the specifications provided by the Pollution Control Board. It is the contention of the petitioner that third respondent and a group of people are objecting the same alleging pollution. Nobody can take law into their hands and if anybody has objection, they have to get prohibitory orders from court or statutory authority. Contesting respondent's main contention is that Pollution Control Board has not given consent. Pollution Control Board is not made as a party to this petition. In the above circumstances, police is directed to ascertain from the Pollution Control Board whether petitioner is laying the pipe as per the specifications W.P.(C)No.1302/2009 2 provided by the Pollution Control Board and if the Pollution Control Board agrees, sufficient protection should be granted as prayed for. Petitioner shall give a copy of this judgment to Adv.Sri.Chandramohan Das who appeared in this case for Pollution Control Board at the request of the court. The writ petition is disposed of accordingly. J.B.KOSHY ACTING CHIEF JUSTICE V.GIRI JUDGE tks
