Abstract

Kashmir popularly known as heaven on earth is famous for its natural beauty worldwide. The valley of Kashmir, often referred to as the “Switzerland of Asia,” is renowned for its natural beauty, and the beautiful waterfalls contribute to the region’s allure. The waterfalls have been popular tourist attractions, offering both natural beauty and opportunities for outdoor recreation. In this paper, we discusses the well-known waterfalls of Kashmir valley from a historical perspective, examining their role in tourism and their impact on the landscape development. The waterfalls in Kashmir valley usually are found mostly in higher elevations and rugged terrains,requiring construction of footpaths, narrow roads and passes to make them accessible to tourists. The survey of waterfalls revealed that tourists enjoy the visit to waterfalls but recent developments, such as power generation projects and a growing influx of visitors compromises the aesthetic value of waterfalls. It was concluded that for sustainable development, it is crucial for the government and all stakeholders to prioritize environmental protection when undertaking development projects. Balancing tourism infrastructure with ecological preservation is critical to maintain the natural beauty of these sites for future generations in view of present huge tourist flow in the study area.

Abstract

India, with its wealthy biodiversity and numerous ecosystems, has lengthily diagnosed the significance of environmental conservation for sustainable development. Environmental regulation in India encompasses a vast variety of criminal principles, regulations, and insurance policies that goal to defend and retain the environment, stop pollution, and promote sustainable use of herbal resources. In this study, we use a well-designed validated questionnaire to collect the information from 400 College students (200 male and 200 female) via online/offline mode using simple random sampling. The data collected was analysed statistically using statistical software SPSS (Version 20). The results of our study revealed that majority of respondents were not aware of legal laws, an important part of healthy society. It is important for every individual to study and know about environmental laws as it helps in understanding the environmental principles and regulations that govern the protection of environment. Statistically, non-significant difference was observed between Arts and Science Stream students in practice towards environment (P>0.05). Finally, it was suggested that legal literacy about environmental laws may be promoted as it will make society more fair and useful to protect the environment and address global issues related environment.
