🌱🏗️ In a major speech, CJI Surya Kant said climate cases aren’t about choosing between progress and planet; it’s about balancing both. He pointed out that farmers and fishers, who did little to cause climate change, are the ones suffering first. And courts? They’re being forced to fill gaps where laws are silent. India’s already走在前面; we’ve had the Central Empowered Committee (CEC) since the 90s, a group of forest and environment experts who help judges make smarter, science-backed decisions. Not just witnesses; permanent partners in justice. This matters for aspirants because: environmental law is becoming a key domain in UPSC and judiciary exams. And with climate cases rising, knowing how courts balance rights, development, and ecology; especially under Article 21; could be your edge. The future of justice isn’t just about books; it’s about understanding the real world. And that’s what CJI Kant is quietly building.
