@CAGChennai@EnvtSupportGrp@kanchikohli on how fundamentals of EIA are changing & the holes getting bigger, @ShripadManthan on need for sectoral EIAs, quality of EIA reports, including affected people & Zaman Ali on unscientific principles & dilutions in #DraftEIA
We have shared in our piece how OIL received exemption from conducting a public hearing in #DibruSaikhowa more than once. But online availability of information on this environmental clearance of OIL deserves a special mention. So here is a thread on it.
A simple search on the website of Parivesh for EC to exploration in #DibruSaikhowa by OIL produces the below row. When we clicked on the ToR folder it was dated Feb 28, 2008. Since a ToR expires in 3 (max 4) years, it left us perplexed. How come this ToR was valid till recently?
