ABSTRACT
This research paper studies the provisions of the Bhartiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS) regarding environmental crimes for their strengths and weaknesses in combatting ecological degradation and public health hazards. The effective legal frameworks are of importance in India as more and more environmental challenges arise in the country. The specific objectives of the study include the evaluation of the current provisions of the BNS in the legal response to environmental offenses, identification of gaps, and of the provisions aimed at strengthening legal responses to such offenses. The results will continue to inform debates over legal reform and policy enactment in environmental law that advance more robust principles of environmental protection in India.
