This detailed and in-depth study of environmental governance in India looks at the complex interactions between people and the natural world in the context of the functions played by the government, the judiciary, and civil society. Undoubtedly, one of the most challenging issues facing humanity today is the governance of the natural environment. As a result, environmental issues are now increasingly on the agenda for both industrialised and developing nations at all levels of governance. This environment-development discourse is traced in Environmental Governance in India: Issues and Challenges, which also discusses the constraints, challenges, and opportunities for fair, just, and sustainable development.
