Raizada Law Associates is an experienced Environmental Law Firm in Delhi. Our Environmental Lawyers in New Delhi handle all environmental compliance. Environmental law is a complex and ever-evolving area of law that deals with the protection of the natural environment and the regulation of activities that may impact the environment. In India, environmental law is governed by a number of statutes, such as the Water (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1974, the Air (Prevention and Control of Pollution) Act, 1981, the Forest (Conservation) Act, 1980, and the Wildlife Protection Act, 1972.
The Indian legal system provides for several laws that govern various aspects of environmental law, such as the Forest Rights Act, 2006, the National Green Tribunal Act, 2010, and the National Green Corps Programme. These laws provide for the protection of natural resources and biodiversity and also regulate the activities that may cause environmental degradation.
The Indian courts play a crucial role in interpreting and enforcing environmental laws. The High Court and the Supreme Court are the primary courts that deal with environmental law matters. The High Court has original jurisdiction to hear and decide cases related to environmental law, while the Supreme Court has the power to hear and decide appeals from the decisions of the High Court.
The Indian courts are empowered to hear and decide disputes related to environmental law, such as air and water pollution, deforestation, wildlife conservation, and climate change. The courts also have the power to grant injunctions, award damages, and order the closure of polluting industries.
