@IndiaJyot @DrWarunjikar @sanjayeldf1 Principle of non-regression has to be a bedrock of environmental prevention. Any instrument that is now drafted cannot be regressive to the environment; that is the principle of non regression: Sanjay Upadhyay

@IndiaJyot @DrWarunjikar @sanjayeldf1 If you talk to the forest guard for him envt law is what the DFO says not what the forest act says, so we need to make sure that these concepts attain finality on the ground and so that all of it actually makes sense: Sanjay Upadhyay

Lets start with aligning our source apportionment studies with the 131 Non attainment cities' action plans as a first to tackle air pollution in India!

[Sanjay Upadhyay @sanjayeldf1]

The CJI is right that the clean air slogan should not be a ceremeonial lipservice. Its time to look at hard solutions to the air pollution problem in India. The courts have given directions after consulting with experts for over a decade! Please follow them!

[Sanjay Upadhyay @sanjayeldf1]

There are no quick fix to the air pollution hazard! Severe or very poor or poor should not be acceptable! The enabling orders of the apex court or NGT need to be utilised to the hilt by regulators and policy makers alike!

[Sanjay Upadhyay @sanjayeldf1]

The SC's inclusion of educational institutions and industrial sheds within purview of EIA and the faith on SEIAA is welcome! But what happens to ongoing constructions who were exempted, especially as post facto clearance, is now prohibited by SC itself!

[Sanjay Upadhyay @sanjayeldf1]

While the latest judgment on Pollution Control Boards powers to levy compensatory damages is a welcome step, the God will be in details of the rules! But one discreet observation to amend the Air Act and NGT Act to appeal under 31A now overturns the Sterlite judgment !
