"After registration of crime, on appointment of the investigation/inspection team and also when Magisterial enquiry was required, why, without appointment of the said panel or permission of the Court, Styrene Monomer has been permitted to be transported to South Korea and who is the person responsible for the same," the court asked and directed the Central and state governments, various government agencies and the company to submit the compliance report by May 26.The court, which posted the next hearing to May 28, also wanted a reply on the net worth of LG Polymers Pvt Ltd.The high court on May 7 had suo-moto taken up the case and passed orders. Both the state and the Central governments submitted action taken reports by May 20. The court observed that the replies by the state and Central governments were silent on certain issues, which were also raised in two writ petitions filed subsequently.The court sought explanation from respondents on various issues including the issue that LG Polymers has been operating without a valid environmental clearance from the Union Environment, Forests and Climate Change Ministry. It also wanted explanation on the point that the inhibitor concentration in the storage tank was not checked, the refrigeration system was not working properly, the radius of the vulnerable zone extended up to 6.3 km from the sources and the siren/alarm system did not function.( With inputs from IANS )
