To ensure speedy environmental clearances for industries in India, the government has implemented several measures. Some of the most vital ones include:

• The implementation of an online filing and monitoring system for environmental clearances in 2015.
• Simplification and revision of the rules related to Environmental Impact Assesment (EIA) clearance.
• Delegation of powers to the State Level Environmental Impact Assessment Authority (SEIAA) and the District Level Expert Appraisal Committees (DEAC) to accord environmental clearances.
• Providing a single-window clearance facility for all the required approvals related to their industrial projects.

These measures have certainly streamlined the process to give environmental clearance within 75 days. However, their impact on the environment is debatable. There are concerns that the speedy clearances may not consider all the potential environmental impacts of the projects and might adversely impact the ecosystem. Therefore, Industrialists should ensure that all environmental norms are met, and the government should verify those norms are met before providing environmental clearance.
