Abstract
As a result of this India's extremely rapid economic growth, the scale of environmental
problems is no longer in doubt. Whether pollution abatement managements are efficiently
controlled is an empirical question. Using recently developed productivity measurement
technique, we show that overall environmental productivity decreases over time in India. At
present, the existing environmental management is not sufficient to bring about sustainable
development in India.
