Himachal Pradesh High Court Orders Poultry Farm Closure

The Himachal Pradesh High Court has ordered the closure of a poultry farm in Kangra district.

The court decided this because the farm was too close to people's homes, which was causing problems.

The farm was only 50 meters away from houses, and the court said that people have the right to live in a clean and healthy environment.

The farm owner argued that he was following the rules and needed the farm for his livelihood.

However, the court found that the farm was violating guidelines that say such farms should be at least 500 meters away from homes.

The court allowed the farm owner to set up a new farm farther away from residential areas if he wishes.
