Some of the Strategies for sustainable development of the State's resources are as follows: |
Environmental Resource Planning: |
The government will focus on sustainable management of essential ecological processes and life support systems. This would ensure sustainable and rational utilization, conservation and integrated environmental management, within all areas viz. land, air, water, forests, bio-diversity, minerals, industry, agriculture as well as urban planning and transport. |
Colloborative Governance and Market based Mechanism: |
Through collaborative efforts, impact of actions of developmental projects on all affected biophysical and social elements would be considered. As the implementation of the evironmental policy is the responsibility of various departments, the requirements of the environmental policy would be integrated with the policies of water resources, forest, road, transport, housing, industry and mining departments. Measures will be undertaken wherever reasonable and practical, and with due regard to public interest, to ensure that the costs of environmental degradation are borne by the
person(s) responsible for the degradation |
Positive Intervention through Public Participation |
Public awareness and participative decision making is essential for effective, long term environmental protection and equitable utilization of natural resources. The commitment and participation of people to this process and to matters of environment that directly and indirectly concern them would hold the key to sustained prevention of environmental pollution and degradation. |
