💨 Abstract

The Supreme Court expressed shock over the lack of action by the executive regarding the Mullaperiyar Dam safety, despite the Dam Safety Act being enacted by Parliament in 2021. The bench issued a notice to the Centre seeking its response and the assistance of the Attorney General regarding the constitution of a national committee for the dam’s safety and giving effect to other provisions of the Dam Safety Act.
