NGT Hearing Stubble Burning

NEW DELHI, INDIA - OCTOBER 4: Balbeer Singh Rajewal, Chief of Bharatiya Kisan Union, after the hearing at National Green Tribunal on October 4, 2017 in New Delhi, India. The National Green Tribunal rapped the Punjab government for not providing incentive and infrastructural assistance to farmers to stop them from burning crop residue to prevent air pollution. The green panel asked the state government to look into the problems faced by the farmers and directed its counsel to seek instructions whether compensation could be provided to them for disposing their agricultural residue while giving them liberty to engage any agency of their choice.
