Read to know Why firecracker manufacturers were served a showcause notice by the Supreme Court..

barandbench.com/news/litigatio…
Sr. Adv Gopal Sankaranarayanan (will be referred to as GS hereafter) : we have place on record an additional affidavit on the basis of the CBI report. what has transpired is indeed very disturbing.

Justice Shah: Our earlier order must be complied with by every State.
Justice Shah: We have already banned joint crackers. But in any celebration you go to, you will find joint crackers. How is this happening?
Justice Shah: have you seen the reply by manufacturers. what they say is very surprising. they say that when they are found to have purchased huge quantity of barium its to be kept in godown but not manufacture. its not for show that they are purchasing it
Sr Adv Dushyant Dave: They can only use Barium Nitrite now

GS: No they cannot use any barium element
Sr Adv Rajiv Dutta: MoEF has also filed a separate affidavit

SC: We may pass an order that the entire quantity purchased be seized. it cannot be in godown also
Dutta: your orders have to be complied with. But if some person has done something let not entire industry suffer

Dave: let us strike a balance

SC: We cannot celebrate at the cost of life of others. From where do we get that celebration can only be from noisy crackers?
SC: Celebration can also be from Fuljhaddi etc and does not need noisy crackers
SC: Respondents state that they have filed replies to CBI report. Sr Adv G Sankarananyanan states reply from petitioner has been filed. some of the counsels have received the replies. we have received reply by standard fireworks just now. Let counter be filed. List on Oct 26

Unitech case hearing in #SupremeCourt

Sr Adv Vikas Singh for Unitech: how long will this ex parte hearing go on? I am the second-largest real estate developer who has built around 5 crore square feet area and over 1 lakh units
Justice DY Chandrachud: This is not an ex parte hearing. You are not entitled to peruse the case diary..
