Environment Protection Act in India was passed during which year ?

  • A.2017
  • B.1999
  • C.1986
  • D.1972

Answer: C

The Environment (Protection) Act was passed in 1986.

Enacted after the Bhopal gas tragedy of 1984, under Article 253 to implement the decisions of the 1972 Stockholm Conference, the Act is an umbrella law that empowers the central government to protect and improve the environment and to regulate pollution.

1972 is the year of the Wildlife (Protection) Act and the Stockholm Conference, and the other years do not match the Act.
