A judicial system, which tries to find small, bracketed solution for a multi-cultural and multi-situational country like India, is the "biggest problem", Goa Chief Minister Manohar Parrikar said on Monday.

"The moment there was a lot of destruction, we made laws, we went for regulatory authorities and we went for judicial systems which tries to find one square bracketed solution for the entire country. This is the biggest problem," Parrikar said, while speaking at a function organised to mark International Day for Biological Diversity here.

Earlier in his speech, he also spoke about how a solid waste management project in Goa finally could go ahead, after more than 25 hearings at the National Green Tribunal.

"A person with with sensitivity of bio-diversity, ecology and environment is equally restricted by this court, from acting, even in the interest of environment, because one law, one rule. This does not fit this nation which is multi-cultured and multi-situational," he also said.

Parrikar said that the ease of doing business processes are better in Andhra Pradesh because it has acres of barren land, which can be used for setting up of industries, while Goa has virtually none.

"I think the greed overcomes the need. Sometimes you have rampant destruction of bio-diversity or environment. I think the society can cope up with both growing together. There's no need that economics should destroy environment or bio-diversity. But we swing the other way," he added.
