	Closing of Industries in Delhi - Worker's activities
		In July 1996 the Supreme Court (SC) ordered the closure and shifting of 168 industrial units in Delhi which were considered to be polluting and/or operating in non-conforming areas in violation of Delhi Master Plan.
		The judgement, which was passed by the SC without giving any proper hearing to the workers or their trade unions, has caused much grief to the workers.
		This study of Delhi industries was undertaken in order to document the effects of the Supreme Court orders, to highlight the need for adopting alternative approach to the question of industrial pollution, and to help promote tripartitism with regard to environmental issues.
