KARNIK & NIVEDITA P. MEHTA, JJ. DATED :- 27th November, 2024 P. C. Our attention is invited to the directions issued by the Goa State Pollution Control Board (GSPCB) under Section 33(A) read with Section 25/26 of the Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974, whereby the management of M/s. Carvalho's Car Wash is directed to close/suspend the operation till such time as the Board grants its consent to operate the same. 2. It is the grievance of the petitioner that the GSPCB is not acting on its own directions. 27th November, 2024 WP 762 of 2024 3. Learned Additional Government Advocate appearing for respondent nos.

In this view of the matter, since appropriate action is being taken by the respondent no. 3 on the directions issued by the GSPCB, the grievance of the petitioner is satisfied. 5. We, however, make it clear that we have not commented on the legality of the order dated 22. 10. 2024 or action taken thereon and it is open for the respondent no. 4 to initiate appropriate proceedings against the said order if they so desire which will be considered on its own merits. 6. Petition is disposed of. No costs. NIVEDITA P. MEHTA, J. M. S. KARNIK, J. 27th November, 2024
