India not in favour of reopening some clauses of Paris agreement: CK Mishra

India is not in favour of reopening some clauses of the Paris agreement on climate change and this has been largely accepted. Environment Secretary CK Mishra said India will not be adversely impacted in the wake of the Trump administration pulling out of the historic climate agreement. 

The Paris agreement aims to strengthen the global response to the threat of climate change by keeping a global temperature rise



this century well below two degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels and to pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase even further to 1.5 degrees Celsius. 

There has been a talk of reopening of some of the clauses of Paris agreement. The Paris agreement, signed in 2015 also aims to strengthen the ability of countries to deal with the impacts of climate change.
