JUDGMENT

It is now reported that the Corporation of Thrissur has decided to auction the right to remove the slaughter waste from the slaughter house. Whatever is not consumable by humans are to be treated as slaughter waste only. The persons who get the right to remove the slaughter waste necessarily should have the consent from the Pollution Control Board. 2.

It is also pointed out that an interim arrangement has been made to remove the slaughter waste. One Mr. A.T. Ameer has been entrusted with the task of removing slaughter waster till auction. That arrangement shall continue till the auction is conducted as undertaken. Every endeavour shall be made to conduct the auction within a period of one month. 3.

The above directions will not preclude the Corporation of Thrissur to make provisions for the disposal of the skin of the slaughtered animals.

The Writ Petition is disposed of.
