This 2025 edition of The Environment (Protection) Act, 1986 (Act 29 of 1986) reproduces the umbrella statute verbatim and folds in the Jan Vishwas (Amendment of Provisions) Act, 2023 (18 of 2023, w.e.f. 1-4-2024) that decriminalises minor procedural lapses and introduces graded monetary penalties.


A compendium of the latest allied rules, notifications and standards is bound into the volume, including—but not limited to—


Environment (Protection) Rules, 1986 (consolidated to G.S.R. 797 E, 23-12-2023)


Hazardous & Other Wastes (Management & Trans-boundary Movement) Rules, 2016 (as amended to 2023)


Plastic Waste Management Rules, 2016 & EPR amendments, 2022–23


E-Waste Management Rules, 2022 (w.e.f. 1-4-2023)


Solid Waste, Bio-Medical Waste, Construction-Demolition Waste, Fly-ash and Ozone-Depleting-Substances Rules (latest revisions)


Coastal Regulation Zone Notification, 2019 with 2022–23 corrigenda


National Green Tribunal Act extracts on penalty jurisdiction


Concise short comments highlight emission-standard updates, EPR-portal timelines, carbon-credit trading notification (2023) and Jan Vishwas compounding slabs—while preserving full Bare-Act integrity.
