  • ENVIRONMENT V. DEVELOPMENT REVISITED: CONTRIBUTIONS of INDIA's JUDICIARY to the CONFLICT RESOLUTION
    ENVIRONMENT v. DEVELOPMENT REVISITED: CONTRIBUTIONS OF INDIA'S JUDICIARY TO THE CONFLICT RESOLUTION Rahmatullah Khan*' 1. INTRODUCTION On 7 November 1990, the Supreme Court of India issued a significant Order (Writ Petition No 12819 of 1985, mimeograph copy) dismissing a petition filed under Article 32 of the Constitution by the Tehri Bandh Virodh Sangarsh Samiti [Tehri Dam Opposition Committee] and others. Petitioners had requested the Court to issue a restraint order to the Gov­ ernment of India preventing it from constructing a huge hydro-power project and a dam on the river Tehri on the ground that the dam posed a serious threat to the life, ecology and environment of the entire northern India as the site of the dam was prone to earthquakes. It was argued that expert testimony indicated that the pattern and consistency of earth­ quakes in the region were likely to have left a 200 to 300 kilometres length of fracture along the convergence boundary roughly covering the region from Dehradun on the west to the India-Nepal border in the east. Petition­ ers had good expert testimony on their side. The project had been considered by the Environmental Appraisal Committee (EAC) of the Ministry of Environment and Forests which unan­ imously rejected it on the ground that its geological and seismic setting posed grave hazards, and the accompanying ecological and social conse­ quences were unacceptable. Petitioners also highlighted the rather belated note of dissent submitted by Professor V. K. GAUR to the subse­ quent clearance given to the project by a High Level Committee of * ,Jawaharlal Nehru Professor of Environmental Law, School of International Studies, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi; member of the Editorial Board.
