A notice from the Official Journal lists the ministries represented. The establishment of the Committee is essential for strengthening national systems and institutional arrangements for the implementation and monitoring of climate action, as 2021 marks the beginning of the implementation of the Paris Agreement.

Former President Donald Trump had cited the unfair economic burden on American workers, businesses and taxpayers of the country`s promise to the deal as the reason for withdrawing from the deal. Signed in 2016, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change agreement addresses mitigation, adaptation to greenhouse gas emissions and financing. It establishes a global framework to avoid climate change by limiting global warming to well below 2°C and striving to limit it to 1.5°C. In addition, countries` capacity to cope with the effects of the climate crisis should be strengthened and supported in their efforts. The committee will have the secretary of the Union Ministry of Environment, Forests and Climate Change (MoEFCC) as chair and the additional secretary, moEFCC, as vice chairman, according to the statement. The 17-member committee was composed of members from 13 key ministries of the Union Government. The Secretary of the Ministry of Environment, Forests and Climate Change (MoEFCC), R P Gupta, will be the head of this committee, and the additional secretary, the MoEFCC, Ravi Shankar Prasad, will be the vice-president.
