Restriction is developing against the draft EIA (Environment Impact Assessment) Notification, 2020 gave by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change. The Assam Congress August fourth, 2020, communicated passionate resistance to the Center’s move saying that it could spell fiasco for the delicate environment of the state alongside different pieces of the nation.

“The draft EIA presents existential danger to the untamed life, amphibian life and the nature. It is an undemocratic draft and against the fishing network, ranchers and other innate networks the nation over,” Ripun Bora, leader of Assam Congress said in a question and answer session here in Guwahati.

In addition, Bora said that the arrangement of post-facto endorsement referenced in the draft is the most perilous thing. “The BJP government is endeavoring to execute the draft EIA resisting the Supreme Court’s order,” he included.
