Abstract

Healthy environment is need of everyone. Today we witness ecological imbalance, degrading environment, depredated earth, traumatic subversion of the eco-system, poisoning of air, water and food and technological plunder of resources of nature. India has participated in various UN conferences on environment and sustainable development and enshrined them in various legislations and also in its constitution. Constitution of India being law of land had played very important role in protection of environment. Through its various provisions of fundamental rights and directive principles it has shown the greater concern and due attention to the protection of environment from various pollinations. To protect the constitutional rights and duties Indian judiciary had evolved various doctrines. The Supreme Court as well as High Courts has played significant role. By establishing National Green Tribunal, India has opened new aspirations in the arena of environmental protection. This paper throws light on India’s efforts to apply the concept of sustainable development.
