Supreme Court Criticizes Rajasthan Over Jojari River Pollution

Supreme Court Criticizes Rajasthan Over Jojari River Pollution

The Supreme Court of India is very upset with the Rajasthan government because the Jojari River, which many people rely on, is very polluted.

The court says the government isn't doing enough to stop factories from dumping waste into the river.

The court set up a team to investigate, but the team hasn't done much.

The court also found out that the water in the river is very acidic and smells bad.

The government says they are taking action, but the court doesn't think it's enough.

The court wants all the factories to stop polluting the river and is making the Chief Secretary of Rajasthan responsible for making sure this happens.

The court also stopped a new industrial park project near the river because it could make the pollution worse.
