Popis: | Coronavirus disease has wrecked the lives of people globally. Countries have resorted to several restrictive measures to prevent the transmission of the virus. It has created a standstill in the global economies. The social consequences are far worse. The lives of the people have been aggravated both physically and mentally. This has pushed them on the verge of vulnerability. However, a sense of optimism has emerged for environmental concerns. The air and water quality has witnessed a significant improvement globally. The prospects have proved to be significant for countries trying to meet the international standards of emissions. The closure of economic activities and stringent norms of social distancing has considerable effects on the environment, particularly in India. The paper gives an insight into the Environmental conditions of India pre and post lockdown. As the uncertainties still brim on the way, a strong course of action is needed to address the environmental concerns. The forward course of action has been suggested for a sustainable and green recovery. |
