Environmental Governance MCQ - Practice Questions with Answers

Assertion A is true because the National Green Tribunal did direct that the Delhi Ridge Management Board should be constituted and proceed with its work expeditiously. Reason R is also true because the NGT is indeed a specialised judicial body established under the National Green Tribunal Act, 2010, for the speedy disposal of environmental cases. However, R does not directly explain why the NGT issued this specific direction; the direction relates to the protection and management of the ecologically sensitive Ridge area, not merely to the existence of the Tribunal. Hence both A and R are true but R is not the correct explanation of A.
