To view environmental protection through an ideological or political lens will only spell its
doom. Environmental issues are currently at the centre of a heated debate. It may be politically
convenient – but not presenting the complete picture – to express shock at India being ranked at
“177 out of 180countries” in the Environmental Performance Index Report. Besides, in the
June 2020 EPI, India’s rank stands improved at 168, not 177which is the 2018 rank. The
Environmental Performance Index has been developed by two U.S. universities (Yale and
Columbia) in collaboration with the World Economic Forum and European Commission and
available ranking shows India at 118 in2006, 123 in 2010, 155 in 2014 and 177 in 2018,sought
to be conveyed, regarding our standing. Also, the experts in the two universities conclude: ”
*…….. the 2008 ranking suggests that wealth is a major determinant of environmental success.”

based on our priorities. struck within India and based on our priorities, and not some
international index. Deforestation ought to be a primary concern of any right-thinking
government. Forest clearances for mining and industries, while major, are not the only causes
of deforestation. Population pressure due to which the slash-and-burn has reduced in forest
areas from 17-to 20 years to two to three years giving no time for forest regeneration, and
creeping conversion of forest to cultivated land are both major drivers of deforestation; there is
also the increasing use of timber for house hold and industry purposes. However, while
diversion of forests for mining and industry is regulated by law and challenged in courts, the
other major drivers are not even discussed. Nirmal Ganga’ can be achieved by zero discharge of
effluents and domestic sewerage, but ‘Aviral Ganga’ can only be achieved by constant
balancing between irrigation needs of agriculture and potable water for cities on the one hand
and the environmental flow of the river on the other. The balance of imperatives between the
environment and poverty eradication, and the critical need to harmonise the workings of the
political affiliation. (Source:https://www.thehindu.com/opinion/lead/the-environment-is-anational-issue/article32491199.ece)
