In the wake of Bhopal tragedy, the Government of India enacted the Environment (Protection) Act, 1986 (EPA) under article 253 of the constitution. The purpose of the Act is to act as an “umbrella” legislation designed to provide a frame work for Central government co-ordination of the activities of various central and state authorities established under previous laws, such as Water Act & Air Act. The potential scope of the Act is broad, with “environment” defined to include water, air and land and the inter-relationships which exist among water, air and land, and human beings and other living creatures, plants, micro-organisms and property. Environment protection rules were also enacted as a corollary to this Act.

Environmental Education Approaches & Sustainable Development Role.pdfDrHafizKosar
The recommendations for taking care of the environment include:
1. Check and study the environment, and share information about it.
2. Plan and set goals for protecting the environment, and make agreements with other countries.
3. Help out with technical support, money, and telling people about environmental issues.
When we make plans to protect the environment, we should remember some important ideas:
1. It took nature millions of years to create everything, and it's important to keep it stable.
2. Earth's resources are not endless, so we should use them wisely.
3. All living things and the environment affect each other.
4. Green plants, which turn sunlight into food, are very important for the environment.
Call for Social Awareness
To promote Afforestation
Pakistan's forest cover is only 20%, below the 33% needed for a healthy environment. To address this, collective efforts are needed to plant trees on vacant lands, preserve existing forests, and cultivate fast-growing tree species. By safeguarding forests and engaging in tree planting initiatives, we can ensure the safety of air, water, land, and wildlife, fostering a healthier, more sustainable environment.
To Check Deforestation
Deforestation disrupts air O2-CO2 balance, causes soil erosion, floods, and drought. It leads to air, water, noise, and land pollution. Laws should prevent mass tree cutting.
To Mitigate Air, Water, and Land Pollution in Pursuit of a Healthier Life
Raising awareness about pollution through conservation clubs, anti-pollution campaigns, and demonstrations, promoting vegetation, green belts, bio-friendly alternatives, and alternative energy sources like solar, wind, and thermal.
Raising Awareness on Environmental Hazards and Solutions
Global environmental hazards include greenhouse effect, warming, sea level rise, and ozone depletion. Reducing hazards through alternative energy sources and tree planting can help protect coastal communities.
Natural Resource Conservation
Governments worldwide are increasingly recognizing the importance of conserving natural resources, such as forests, wildlife, land, air, water, minerals, metals, and oil. This issue is particularly critical in densely populated, economically disadvantaged, and educationally underserved societies like Pakistan .
Measures for Environmental Management
1. Make sure the water we use for drinking is safe and clean. We should treat the water we use in our homes and industries before putting it back into lakes, rivers, or oceans. We should also create affordable sanitation systems near rivers.
2. It's important to have clean and fresh air for people, animals, and plants to survive. We should have rules that control the number of harmful gases like CO and CO2 that industries and cars release into the air.
3. To take care of our soil, we should plant more trees and stop cutting down existing ones.
4. Forests help balance the levels of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the air.
Report of the High Level Committee on Forest and Environment Related Laws, Ch...Sadanand Patwardhan
Narendra Modi led government formed a high level committee to review all Environment related legislation with special reference to various judicial verdicts stemming from and on them in order to suggest comprehensive changes or amendments while keeping in mind "ground realities". The committee was led by T S R Subramanian and had, curiously, member secretary of Gujarat Pollution Control Board as its secretary. The report of the committee was "accessed" by Business Standard and also put in public domain. In that sense, this is a "leaked" report. Committee has suggested complete overthrow of the environment laws and recommended a single omnibus act in its place. Even the powers of National Green Tribunals are to be seriously curtailed and restrictions put on judiciary's ability to review executive decisions. It also recommends far reaching decentralization of powers to States and delegation of authority to district level authorities. Whatever the quality of current legislation, it is generally observed in breach; and executive and administration is actively apathetic to the protection of environment. Environment protection is seen as a great impediment rather than something crucial for quality of human life. Environment Ministry since the days of UPA rule is seen as barrier to India's Growth story and colossal funds have been tied up in several stalled infrastructure projects with public sector banks being the biggest losers. But instead of nailing the real culprits -the nexus between Greedy Businesses, venal Administration and apathetic watchdog bodies who together are more than willing to flout all the laws and rape the environment- the blame is put on the activists who expose these rackets, and judiciary that upholds the laws. Modi has sold the dream to turn India into next China and needs massive investments from Local and Global corporates. That wouldn't happen unless large scale plunder of environment is allowed sans any safeguards or restorative measures. Because that alone would free internal rate of return on huge infrastructure projects to climb to "healthy" 15-18% from the abysmal 7-8% in recent past. This committee has delivered what the government desired.

WINDING UP of COMPANY, Modes of DissolutionKHURRAMWALI
Winding up, also known as liquidation, refers to the legal and financial process of dissolving a company. It involves ceasing operations, selling assets, settling debts, and ultimately removing the company from the official business registry.
Here's a breakdown of the key aspects of winding up:
Reasons for Winding Up:
Insolvency: This is the most common reason, where the company cannot pay its debts. Creditors may initiate a compulsory winding up to recover their dues.
Voluntary Closure: The owners may decide to close the company due to reasons like reaching business goals, facing losses, or merging with another company.
Deadlock: If shareholders or directors cannot agree on how to run the company, a court may order a winding up.
Types of Winding Up:
Voluntary Winding Up: This is initiated by the company's shareholders through a resolution passed by a majority vote. There are two main types:
Members' Voluntary Winding Up: The company is solvent (has enough assets to pay off its debts) and shareholders will receive any remaining assets after debts are settled.
Creditors' Voluntary Winding Up: The company is insolvent and creditors will be prioritized in receiving payment from the sale of assets.
Compulsory Winding Up: This is initiated by a court order, typically at the request of creditors, government agencies, or even by the company itself if it's insolvent.
Process of Winding Up:
Appointment of Liquidator: A qualified professional is appointed to oversee the winding-up process. They are responsible for selling assets, paying off debts, and distributing any remaining funds.
Cease Trading: The company stops its regular business operations.
Notification of Creditors: Creditors are informed about the winding up and invited to submit their claims.
Sale of Assets: The company's assets are sold to generate cash to pay off creditors.
Payment of Debts: Creditors are paid according to a set order of priority, with secured creditors receiving payment before unsecured creditors.
Distribution to Shareholders: If there are any remaining funds after all debts are settled, they are distributed to shareholders according to their ownership stake.
Dissolution: Once all claims are settled and distributions made, the company is officially dissolved and removed from the business register.
Impact of Winding Up:
Employees: Employees will likely lose their jobs during the winding-up process.
Creditors: Creditors may not recover their debts in full, especially if the company is insolvent.
Shareholders: Shareholders may not receive any payout if the company's debts exceed its assets.
Winding up is a complex legal and financial process that can have significant consequences for all parties involved. It's important to seek professional legal and financial advice when considering winding up a company.
