Indian
Environmental Law is comprised of Legislative (Acts), Rules issued by
Administrators, Regulators, Court & Tribunal Decisions. An outline chart of Legislative Acts, and Rules issued by the MOEF
(Ministry of Environment & Forests) is given below.
Readers must
note that there are countless “Notifications” issued by Central, State and
Union territory governments which constitute the primary working level details
and guidelines for conducting business that has anything to do with the
environment in India. Since it is impossible to list them all, I suggest the
viewers to visit www.envfor.nic.in for
more information.
The listing must be read as follows:
A- Amended followed by Year of Amendment
R-Repealed followed by Year of Repealing
In the present context of Indian Environmental Law
P&CP = Prevention & Control of Pollution (e.g. Air (P&CP) Act = Air (Prevention & Control of Pollution)
P = Protection (e.g. Environment (P) Act = Environment (Protection) Act)
