Polluter Pays Principle: An Efficient Tool To Curb Pollution?





Azka Khanam, MIT WPU Faculty of Law


ABSTRACT


It is a commonly accepted notion that the one who dirties is solely responsible for cleaning up too. This is just what The Polluter Pays Principle preaches. The Polluter Pays Principle is a globally recognized principle that holds the polluter responsible to bear the restoration costs. Through this article, I aim to discuss the various shortcomings and legal implications and to throw light on the success of the principle in controlling pollution.
