Principle: Whosoever by his commission or omission causes environmental pollution shall be held liable for any loss caused by such pollution, it shall be no defence in such cases that all due diligence or reasonable care was taken while carrying out the act or omission in question. Facts: Hari is carrying on a chemical and fertilizer industry near a bank of a river. In order to prevent and control any kind of harm to the environment, suitable waste treatment and disposal plants were installed in the factory. Due to some sudden mechanical/ technical problem, these plants ceased to work properly and, therefore, caused environmental pollution, which ultimately caused substantial harm to the environment and to the people living around the factory. Victims of such pollution file a suit for suitable remedy.
