As the Indian population continues to grow there will be an immense competition for natural resources while achieving food, nutritional, environmental and livelihood security in the country. In addition, the negative consequences of climate change become more evident in agriculture with exploitation of natural resources, decline in soil fertility, ground water levels to meet the ever increasing demands for food and nutritional requirements. To maintain sustainable balance between natural resources and the demand, immediate attention is needed in several areas viz., imbalanced use of fertilizers, declining soil organic carbon, lowering of water table, soil health, organic farming and climate change impact in agriculture sector.

Recent studies on soil biodiversity, rapid composting techniques, use of bio-filters for removal of heavy metals from compost, application of Nano sensors in agriculture to improve nutrient use efficiency, need based fortification of micro nutrients; availability of soil health card, conservation agriculture for enhancing soil health etc. will support sustainable management of natural resources in agriculture.

With a particular focus on scientific and technical understanding of natural resources management, this portal tries to incorporate stakeholders suggestions in achieving sustainable natural resources management.

In the name of Greening India so much money has been spent on advertisements in the media, meetings, conferences, seminars and various activities. Surprisingly they do not contribute to the greening of India by planting a sampling. Ensure that all the activities culminate in action. India needs action not a debate on this.

Sir, Directions of N.G.T for Zero Liquid Discharge for Distillery Industry by incineration technique in general without mentioning the production capacity, It is my humble submission kindly ask to review direction and adopt lenient view for 10 - 25 K.L.P.D production capacity because it requires heavy investment. Smooth running of unit depends on the availability of raw material. It is to be noted they run only 270 days in a year.They can improve by 3R i.e.Measure,Monitor and Minimise water use.

Sir, Distillery industry have a lot of potential of national growth for Rural India. Industry trap Alcohol from the waste of Sugar factory i.e. Molasses and perished grains. Waste of distillery , spent wash is alternative source of energy and organic manure by Bio-composting. Norms/ Direction laid down of Zero Liquid Discharge by N.G.T to adopt incineration for Distillery require review to save Industry and Energy.Industry should run treatment plant efficiently to achieve norms by 3R waste.

Sir, Adoption of 3R technology as suggested for the conservation of natural resources i.e. Water in the zeal of abatement of water pollution of waste (spent wash)in Distillery Industry by Incineration technique is not Techno-economic viable. It is to be noted that country is facing the scarcity of power and industry is being run by D.G.sets too. By effective treatment one can get rid of polluted streams with nominal expenses. We have to save water by 3R technique and avoid incineration.

Sir, Many of our members given valuable ideas, none of the ideas used or followed. The immediate requirement of our farmers is Water So joining all Indian Rivers project must be started on War Foot. Then Power Instead of depending on Thermal & Atomic Power plants, best alternative is Solar power for In house & Wind power mills for Motor related requirements. Third, Good Seeds which can Survive without any Chemical Fertilizers or Insecticides. Can You save India or Pass time like Congress?
