The activities of humans i.e. unsustainable use of resources and the introduction of pollution to the environment led to such deep impacts that it became difficult for the nature to endure and regenerate itself. The concern for the environment has become a major field in today's world, therefore, environmental policies, whether taken up by the government or public, has become a major subject of discussion. This book, therefore, discusses the environmental policies in India since their evolution from the ancient period to the present era. It endeavors to assess the role of different organs of the government of India in the field of environment, coupled with the sector-wise assessment of the environmental policy, the response of the public to the environment and administration of the environmental policies. This analysis should be a help for those who are interested in the protection of the environment, professionally or amateur.
