French ship: SC panel says you can’t dock until you come clean
The Indian Supreme Court monitoring committee on hazardous waste management said that decommissioned French aircraft carrier Clemenceau should not be allowed within 200 km of India’s exclusive economic zone until there was full disclosure on the amount of asbestos on board.

The committee members also decided that in case the ship is, in future, allowed into India, it will have to pay a bank guarantee of Rs 80 crore.
