JSW Energy on Friday said the Delhi High Court has not directed it to stop work on a 1,200 MW coal based power plant in Maharashtra and that the project was being executed as per schedule.
The company termed as misleading and baseless certain media reports, which said that the Delhi High Court had stayed implementation of its Jaigarh power plant due to environmental concerns.
JSW Energy said it has sought clarifications to comply with the order and that construction of the plant began only after it obtained the requisite approvals from relevant authorities.
The statement said that "The order does not prohibit the company to continue the implementation of the project nor undertaking tests and operational trials.”
It added that “Implementation of the project was "progressing as per schedule.”
JSW Energy said "The Delhi High Court in its order directed the Expert Appraisal Committee to re examine the approval already granted after considering the reports of Konkan Krishi Vidyapeeth, Dapoli on the basis of data collected and analyzed by them.”
It said that "It also directed to complete this re examination expeditiously and preferably within a period of 3 months.”
