Statement is True.

Reasons :

• Following the globalisation wave that swept the world in the 1990s, nations' independence has grown.
• The threat to the environment posed by pollution or leakage of oil or gas is not limited to a single country. Its effects are also long-lasting.
• In order to deal with these effects, all nations must act with each other's consent and cooperation.

Therefore, it is necessary that all nations should cooperate to find remedies on environmental degradation.

Statement is False.

Reason: Sino-Indian relations are not friendly. They have border disputes with the Aksai Chin area and the Macmohan line.

• Human rights are derived from the concept of natural rights. Natural rights are those that we are born with because we are human beings.
• In the same vein, human rights are those rights that are required for one to live as a human being and as a member of society.
• It is the responsibility of the state to ensure that these rights are available to all individuals.

• Environmental degradation harms the eco system created by nature.
• It occurs as a result of widespread industrialization and the rapidly increasing demand for energy.
• Chemical fertilisers and pesticides used in agriculture, vehicle noise pollution, nuclear reactor radiation, oil leaks, and chemical gas leaks all endanger the environment. It causes a variety of issues such as global warming, new diseases, acid rain, and so on.

• Terrorism is the spread of fear and terror in a society through the use or threat of violence against ordinary and innocent people in order to achieve political goals.
• Terrorism is defined as organised and planned violence.
• It is now a worldwide phenomenon.

Environmental Degradation :

• Human rights have been included in the Indian Constitution as the Fundamental Rights of the citizens.
• The constitution has given the responsibility of the protection and welfare of the women and minorities to the government.
• The constitution has abolished the inhuman practices of untouchability, forced labour and child labour.
• The Human Rights Protection Act was enacted in 1993.
• Accordingly, National Human Rights Commission and the State Human Rights Commission were established.
• The Human Rights Commission is responsible for investigating complaints of violations of human rights and taking appropriate action.
• The constitution and legal provisions for human rights protection are adequate.

Effects of terrorism :

• Terrorism has had a profound and long-term impact on international politics, emerging as a critical issue for the international community.
• The world is filled with fear, and people live in a state of mutual suspicion.
• Terrorist acts have resulted in massive human loss and the destruction of both private and public property.
• Terrorism has harmed tourism, trade, commerce, and industry. It has slowed economic development in terrorism-infested areas.
• It poses a significant threat to the countries' internal and external security.

Remedies to control terrorism :

• As terrorism has become an international problem, the security mechanism of different nations should work in a concerted manner.
• International community should take stringent action against countries that sponsor terrorism.
• People should become vigilant and always look out for probable terrorist acts.
• They should help the law enforcement agencies to apprehend the terrorists.
• Exemplary punishment should be given to the terrorists to defer others from indulging in acts of terrorism.
