Sustainable development is an integral part of fundamental rights conferred on citizens by the Constitution and cannot be allowed to be hampered by environmental degradation, the Supreme Court has said.<\/p>\n
\u201cInter-generational equity and sustainable development have come to be firmly embedded in our constitutional jurisprudence as an integral part of the fundamental rights conferred by Article 21(Right to Life) of the Constitution. In enforcing such rights of a large number of citizens who are bound to be adversely affected by environmental degradation, this Court cannot be constrained by the restraints of procedure,\u201d the apex court has said.<\/p>\n
A bench headed by Justice Aftab Alam said damage caused to environment due to illegal mining in Karnataka has shocked \u201cjudicial conscience\u201d and long arm of the law is to be demonstrated in such cases.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe satellite imageries placed before the court with regard to environmental damage and destruction has shocked judicial conscience,\u201d the bench said while referring to illegal mining in the state.<\/p>\n
\u201cIllegal mining apart from playing havoc on the national economy had, in fact, cast an ominous cloud on the credibility of the system of governance by laws in force. It has had a chilling and crippling effect on ecology and environment,\u201d it said.<\/p>\n
