Abstract
An analysis of the environmental judgments from 1988 to 1996 reveals that Indian Supreme Court has played remarkable and pivotal role in resolving environmental issues in India. For this the court has adopted various methods such as implementing the concept and principles of Sustainable Development, recognizing rights of healthy environment, directing polluters to follow the environmental laws and policies, reminding the State and various statutory authorities to perform their duties and duty under Article 48A of the Constitution. The present paper critically analyses the role of Supreme Court of India in environmental governance specifically during the above said period in India and the impact of the initiatives of Supreme Court in subsequent policy decisions in India.
