Vedanta Ltd has filed a new petition seeking the constitution of an expert committee to review environmental and safety aspects related to the proposed reopening of its copper smelter in Thoothukudi, Tamil Nadu. The move aims to reassess earlier findings and evaluate compliance measures, amid continued legal and regulatory scrutiny.
