Offences and Penalties Under Environmental Protection Act

Offences and Penalties Under Environmental Protection Act


Abstract

The Ministry of Environment, Forestry, and Climate Change published a Draft Environment Plan in October 2015 . Legislation (Amendment) Amendments to the Environment (Protection) Act 1986 and the National Green Tribunal Act 2010 are proposed in Bill 2015. The Bill's declared goal is to establish the idea of monetary punishment and create "effective deterrent punitive measures." It also seeks to ‘minimise the use of discretion and provide a clear framework.' This article summarises the Bill's content and considers whether it will complement the parent legislation' environmental goals.

Introduction

The environment's preservation and protection is a primary focus of all contemporary human endeavours. Its importance to humans has long been acknowledged. Traditions, folklore, and myths have emphasised the importance of the environment, with various elements of the environment being regarded as distinct manifestations of the Almighty. Respect for the environment and its preservation is an ancient Indian dharma. To maintain ecological equilibrium, the monarch is responsible for caring for forests and hunting animals.

Other cultures may have their own ways and means for treating the environment with comparable and equal care. Man is a natural species whose existence has been acknowledged by all civilizations. It is important to examine man's connection with nature before considering what laws or policies govern national or worldwide society.

Conclusion

There is no question that the EP Act's enforcement procedures, like those of other environmental legislation, have failed. A reform process, on the other hand, cannot be rushed or conducted without taking into account the environmental consequences of poorly planned and executed enforcement measures. Penalties that successfully discourage offenders are unquestionably necessary, but the proposed changes are unlikely to accomplish this goal. They need to be re-envisioned in a way that genuinely benefits the environment.
