Supreme Court Eases Industrial Curbs in Taj Trapezium Zone

Supreme Court Eases Industrial Curbs in Taj Trapezium Zone

The Supreme Court of India has decided to relax some rules that were stopping new industries from starting in the Taj Trapezium Zone (TTZ).

This area around the Taj Mahal is protected because it's very important for the environment and history.

The Court said that around 410 small businesses can now apply to set up or expand their industries, but they must follow strict environmental rules.

Experts will check each application to make sure the industries won't pollute the area.

The Court also said that the public can give their opinions on these applications.

This decision is to help small businesses grow while still protecting the environment.
