The environment always interfered by the concept of development. On the growing awareness of the risk on humans the new generations joining hands with Governmental Policies and Laws have reconciled economic development with environmental protection which is needed for further generation technically termed as Sustainable Development. Sustainable Development under International Law is to sought for solutions to parallel problems of global environmental degradation and global lack of social and economic development, by asking for these challenges to be addressed in an integrated way, for the interests of present and future generations as per-The Brundtland Report. The international treaties and the decisions of international courts and tribunals have explicitly recognized the concept of sustainable development which is related to the economic, social development and environmental protection Environmental law and the other laws on development stand not as alternatives but as mutually reinforcing, integral concepts, which require that where development may cause significant harm to the environment, where there is a duty to prevent, or at least mitigate such harm which has become the main principle of general international law, India being a Ratified Country, has implemented many domestic policies and Laws to give effect to the International Laws. This Article is an effort to bring in together the international treaties and legal instruments and its impact on Indian Law.
