Redressal:


1. The composition of the NGT needs to be changed to include more judicials from the field of environment.

2. Citizen should be able to access the authority for re-dressal of all violation of the EIA notification as well as issues relating to non-compliance.

Capacity building:

NGOs, civil society groups and local communities need to build their capacities to use the EIA notification towards better decision making on projects that can impact their local environments and live hoods. Capacities can be built to proactively and effectively use the notification rather than respond in a manner that is seen as negative or unproductive.
