The Madras High Court has granted permission for MDMK general secretary Vaiko to oppose Vedanta Limited’s petition seeking approval for a ‘green copper’ plant at the defunct Sterlite copper plant premises in Thoothukudi. This decision followed Vedanta’s request to the court after the Tamil Nadu Pollution Control Board (TNPCB) rejected the proposal.
