Ex-bureaucrats warn of conflict of interest in environment panel advising Supreme Court

A group of 60 civil servants has written to the Chief Justice of India expressing concerns about a potential conflict of interest in the Ministry of Environment, Forest and Climate Change (MoEFCC)-appointed Central Empowered Committee (CEC), which advises the Supreme Court on environmental cases. The letter, signed by 60 retired seasoned bureaucrats, pointed out that the CEC does not include an independent expert and is instead composed entirely of government officials, which could influence the outcomes of cases concerning amendments to the Forest Conservation Act (FCA) of 1980. The CEC, which should have five members, is currently made up entirely of former government servants, including retired scientists, rather than including at least one independent expert as required. The letter cast doubt on the integrity of the CEC and stated that a CEC which is comprised of officers who had held the highest positions in the MoEFCC, and were closely involved in policy making, can hardly be expected to give independent advice to the Supreme Court, advice that is different from what they gave while they were in the government. The letter cited a writ petition of 2023 which was filed in the Supreme Court by a group of individuals challenging the Forest Conservation Amendment Act (FCAA), 2023. According to the petition, the Act would promote the decline of forests in India. In hearings in this case so far, the Supreme Court has given four landmark orders, upholding the definition of forests as per the Godavarman order of 1996 and directing that such forests be identified and georeferenced as per the SC orders of 1996 and 2011 (Lafarge case). The case is pending for a final hearing and decision in the Supreme Court, said Prakruti Srivatava, a former bureaucrat and one of the signees of the letter. However, the letter pointed out that the CEC has one member who was then at the helm of the MoEFCC, engaged in the preparation of the FCA bill, and also defended the bill in front of the Joint Parliamentary Committee. We fear that the outcome of this case, as well as those of others filed against the FCAA 2023, may be compromised considering the conflict of interest of the CEC, and the likelihood that the Supreme Court may give weight to the advice of the CEC before taking a final decision in the matter, states the letter. The letter further noted that some members of the CEC, when they were at the helm in the MoEFCC, had notified the use of forest land for controversial compensatory afforestation in exchange for forest land. Additionally, the letter highlighted a recent Supreme Court order on the zudupi forest, a scrub forest supporting wildlife, which was diverted for compensatory afforestation on the advice of the CEC, as a possible manifestation of this concern.
