ENVIRONMENTAL ACTIVISM & SUPREME COURT OF INDIA TRACING THE TRANS-FORMATIVE APPROACH

  • Unique Paper ID: 170520
  • PageNo: 41-46
  • Abstract:
  • Activism for Environment Protection in India can be traced back to the ancient India. Our ancestors had realized the significance of the tie between man and his environment . Vedas are known to be the sources of all kinds of knowledge. The Samaveda notes the Flute of Divine Love by saying: "The earth, the sea, the sky, the stars are all woven together by the soft strains of the divine music. Its vibrance echo through the corridors of time in the endless canopy of the sky." Even before 1980s, people had enjoyed this right not as a fundamental right but as a right enforced by the courts under different laws like Law of Torts, Indian Penal Code, Civil Procedure Code, Criminal Procedure Code etc. In today’s emerging legal world, environmental rights are considered as third generation rights.
