National implementation plan (NIP) of the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs), April 2011 [1]

India has submitted the National Implementation Plan of the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants (POPs). MoEF will coordinate its implementation & the activities will spread over a period of 12 years from 2011-2022.

 

The objective of the Stockholm Convention on Persistent Organic Pollutants (SC) is to protect human health and the environment from POPs. The SC requests Parties to protect the citizens and the environment from POPs through activities stipulated in the articles of the treaty. Article 7 of the SC calls for the development of the National Implementation Plan (NIP) that discusses how Parties aim to meet their obligations under the SC. This document has been developed to provide an understanding of what
measures India aims to undertake in this regard.
