Vanashakti vs Union Of India

The Supreme Court examined the validity of a 2025 notification issued by the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change, which purportedly altered the regime established by a 2006 notification. The petitioner challenged the new notification on grounds of procedural or substantive irregularities, raising questions about its legality and impact. The court analyzed whether the changes made were within the powers of the issuing authority and compliant with constitutional and environmental laws. The judgment focused on maintaining the balance between environmental protection and administrative authority, ultimately upholding the validity of the impugned notification.
