After Supreme Court rap, Centre looks to hike stubble fire penalties
The Centre is considering doubling fines for stubble burning under the CAQM Act, 2021, with proposed increases from Rs 2500 to Rs 5000 for under 2 acres, Rs 5000 to Rs 10000 for 2-5 acres, and Rs 15000 to Rs 30000 for over 5 acres, aiming to deter farm fires.
