Abstract The Environmental Policy of India, 2006, plays a significant role in shaping the country's approach towards environmental protection and sustainable development. This research critically analyses the provisions and implementation of the policy, aiming to evaluate its effectiveness and identify areas for improvement. The research begins by providing an overview of the Environmental Policy, 2006, highlighting its objectives and key principles. It delves into the policy's legal framework, including relevant statutes, regulations, and international conventions, which form the basis for environmental governance in India. The study explores the role of various governmental agencies and stakeholders in implementing and enforcing the policy. An important aspect of the analysis is the examination of key challenges and shortcomings associated with the Environmental Policy, 2006. These encompass issues such as weak enforcement mechanisms, lack of coordination among agencies, and inadequate allocation of resources. The research presents case studies and examples to illustrate real-life situations and highlight the practical implications of the policy. Furthermore, the study explores the impact of the policy on various sectors, including industrial activities, infrastructure development, and natural resource management. It assesses the degree to which the policy promotes sustainable practices and considers the balance between economic growth and environmental conservation.
To provide a comprehensive analysis, the research also evaluates the compatibility of the Environmental Policy, 2006, with international environmental norms and commitments, particularly India's obligations under global climate change agreements. Finally, the research concludes with a set of recommendations aimed at enhancing the effectiveness of the Environmental Policy, 2006. These recommendations focus on strengthening enforcement mechanisms, promoting public participation, improving coordination among agencies, and incorporating principles of environmental justice. Through this critical analysis, the research aims to contribute to the ongoing discourse on environmental governance in India and provide insights for policymakers, researchers, and other stakeholders. By identifying the strengths and weaknesses of the Environmental Policy, 2006, this study seeks to support the formulation of more robust and sustainable environmental policies in the future.
