Bengaluru: The Karnataka High Court on Thursday directed the State Government to obtain written instructions from the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru, regarding the timeline required to complete a scientific study on the impact of blasting activities within a 20-km radius of the Krishna Raja Sagar (KRS) Dam.
A Division Bench comprising Acting Chief Justice V.M. Kameshwar Rao and Justice C.M. Joshi passed the directive after the petitioners’ counsel submitted that the study, mandated by a previous court order in January 2024, was still pending.
