The Supreme Court asked the authorities to take legal action against those violating the order. Chief Justice Sinha said, "If the Dhaleshwari gets polluted to save the Burhiganga, then what is the point of shifting? "You (authorities) must protect the Dhaleshawri from harm by preventing the tannery wastes (from being released into it)," he said. The Supreme Court said the tannery owners of Hazaribagh can set up other factories in their old places, but only with the DoE clearance. You will have to ensure that it is started," Justice Sinha told him.
