Kanchi Kohli of the Centre for Policy Research said, "Environmental laws need to be strengthened and not relaxed as is the draft EIA. For instance, the gas leak that in Visakhapatnam today; while this is an accident, there will now have to be an investigation to see whether this was a lapse."

After receiving numerous representations for extending the notice period of the draft Environment Impact Assessment notification 2020, the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change on Thursday announced that the notice period has been extended to June 30.

The deadline for sending in objections and suggestions to the draft notification was to end on May 22.

The ministry had published the draft notification on March 23 and soon after, the lockdown to curb COVID-19 came into force. Representations from environmental and policy research groups, civil society organisations and members of parliament, including former environment minister Jairam Ramesh, had requested for an extension. They had argued that the lockdown restricted the consultation process of the public and stakeholders, many of whom don’t have access to the internet.
