| Summary / Abstract (Note) | The judiciary has been on the upswing and taking suo-moto notice of executive failures or malafide intent on the part of governments. Whether we take the VYAPAM scam in Madhya Pradesh, the landmark National Green Tribunal crackdown on environmental degradation through mining activities, deforestation and other forms of pollution; the Neer Mahal case of Tripura where the court has ordered the Government of Tripura not to encroach on heritage property which is also a private property and many more, the courts have played a pro-people role. |
