Abstract

The development and growth of environmental policy in India can be discussed by classifying it into two phases: pre-independence and post-independence period. The pre-independence period can be further divided into: ancient period, medieval period and British period. The post-independence period environmental policy can be discussed in terms of five-year plans till today.
