From the video description
Energy law requires balancing industrial development with environmental protection rather than prioritizing one over the other. In Vellore Citizens Welfare Forum v Union of India, the Supreme Court recognized sustainable development, the precautionary principle, and the polluter pays principle as integral to Indian law. Consequently, development projects such as power plants cannot ignore pollution controls or pass their ecological costs onto the public.

• Definition and legal significance of sustainable development in India
