Will  the  Minister  of  ENVIRONMENT,  FOREST  AND  CLIMATE  CHANGE  be  pleased  to state:

- (a) whether India has fallen steep down to 177th place from 141st position in recently released global Environmental Performance Index (EPI);
- (b) if so, the details thereof and the reasons therefor;
- (c) whether the Government has taken steps to implement the existing environmental laws and regulations strictly in order to restore environmental quality in the country; and
- (d)  if so, the details thereof?

## ANSWER

## MINISTER  OF  STATE  IN  THE  MINISTRY  OF  ENVIRONMENT,  FOREST  AND CLIMATE CHANGE (DR. MAHESH SHARMA)

(a) & (b): A report  has  been  produced  by  Center  for  Environmental  Law  &  Policy,  Yale University, and Columbia University in collaboration with the World Economic Forum and the Joint Research Centre of the European Commission, entitled 'Environmental Performance Index (EPI)  2018.  The  report  ranks  180  countries.  As  per  the  report,  India's  ranking  in  Global Environment Performance Index (EPI) was 141 in 2016 and177 in 2018. The rankings need to be interpreted  in  due  perspective  as  it  is  based  on  distinct  methodology  and  involves  various assumptions and uncertainties. The methodology adopted to calculate EPI in 2018 varies from the earlier adopted methodology. The 2016 EPI report included 9 issues and 20 indicators. However, 2018 EPI report includes 10 issues and 24 indicators.  The 2018 EPI gives a weight of 40% to Environmental Health and 60% to Ecosystem Vitality. India's overall score for environmental health policy objective has shown substantial improvement. The decrease in score is on account of ecosystem vitality, which has been given higher weightage and at the same time, has higher subjectivity.  India with high population would indicate higher exposure level in the absence of proper normalization.

(c) & (d): The  Government  has  taken  a  number  of  steps  to  enhance  implementation  of existing  environmental  laws  and  regulations  in  order  to  restore  environmental  quality  in  the country.  These include, promotion of 24x7 real time online monitoring of emission and effluents of  17  categories  of  highly  polluting  industries,  real  time  water  quality  monitoring  through  44 monitoring stations on river Ganga and two on Yamuna, and 100 continuous ambient air quality monitoring  stations  in  61  cities.    Further,  inspections  are  carried  out  by  field  functionaries  of Central Pollution Control Board, State Pollution Control Boards and Regional Headquarters from time to time to improve the implementation of existing laws and regulations.
