National Green Tribunal Tracking Tool
We are monitoring each issue that the NGT is considering, with respect to the western Indian Himalayas. Here, we provide a brief of these issues beginning June 1st, 2021.
Legislative Tracking Tool
It is crucial to make the position of the government on Climate Change and the environmental problems in the Himalayas accessible. This helps discern, to a large extent, (a) how the government understands these complex problems at present, and (b) where are these questions coming from.
We are continuously tracking disclosures made by the Government of India in the Lower and Upper Houses of the Indian Parliament relevant to the Himalayan region. These disclosures were made in response to questions raised by Members of Parliament in sessions beginning January 1st, 2021, and in the form of parliamentary reports. Questions were selected on the basis of reflection of words 'Climate Change' and 'Himalaya' in their titles on the official websites of the lower and upper houses of the Parliament (using the filters 'all words' + 'title').
