Clean air is fundamental need, not an environmental luxury: NGT Chairperson
NGT Chairperson Justice Prakash Shrivastava emphasized clean air as a fundamental need, not an environmental luxury, during the Swachh Vayu Diwas programme on International Day of Clean Air for Blue Skies in New Delhi. The event highlighted India's commitment to air quality improvement under the National Clean Air Programme (NCAP). Justice Shrivastava stressed judicial and institutional accountability for enforcing environmental laws. This reinforces the legal framework linking Article 21 (Right to Life) with clean air, a key topic for polity and environment sections in competitive exams.
