Environmental deterioration in India is eminent due to rapid industrialization and intense Urbanization due to industrialization. The poor air quality is one of the most serious environmental problem in the world. Transportation, industrial power generation, toxic substances, gases in the atmosphere have effect on our food supply, health, plant human life and economy. Present study deals with the observation made on the plants on roadside in comparison to plants in controlled area. On roadside plants having heavy auto-exhaust pollution load. Present studies were made on Cassia occidentalis taken from Garh road, Railway road, Delhi road and University road. These changes have been worked out on the basis of percentage of reduction in various parameters in tested plants. Due to high concentration of automobile pollution, the number of stomata, stomatal index and stomatal density were reduced and Number of epidermal cells and epidermal density were increased. Variation in stomatal index and stomatal density on the adaxial and abaxial surface has been observed in these plants.

The kinetic study for the bromination of the regioisomers of cresol in aqueous medium by molecular bromine has been carried out using the competition technique. These reactions are rapid and are found to be of the second order. The specific reaction rates determined at 26.0o C are 1.5 x 104, 3.0 x 104 and 50.0 x 104 M-1 s-1 for the ortho, para and meta isomers respectively. These values quantitatively justify the relative reactivity of these regioisomers in aqueous medium which has been qualitatively speculated hitherto for these rapid bromination reactions.

India has a long coastline of over 8000 Km with associated continental shelf of 0.5 million Km2 and an Exclusive Economic Zone of 2.04 Χ 106 Km2. Estuary is an integral part of the coastal environment. Estuaries have been the focal point of the maritime studies and activities. The health status and the biological diversity of the Indian estuarine ecosystem are deteriorating day by day through anthropogenic activities and dumping of enormous quantities of wastes. The present research work has been carried out to determine the status of soil along the estuarine area of Bhayander and Naigaon of Thane district. The soil along the estuarine area of Bhayander and Naigaon is silty in texture and the percentage of organic matter is more during monsoon and less during the post and pre monsoon period. Alkalinity is found to be less in monsoon and more during post and pre monsoon possibly due to washing away of the carbonates and bicarbonate substances by the rainwater. Similar condition is exhibited for Chlorides in the soil samples of both the stations. The percentage of organic matter in the soil sample of estuarine area of Bhayander and Naigaon was found to be high which indicates slight soil pollution in the estuarine area. This estuarine soil pollution may be because of dumping of religious refuges and also of wastes such as paper, household waste etc.

Urban Air Quality Management in developing countries due to vehicular pollution causes significant impacts. Increased traffic especially in cities and the exhaust from the vehicles cause adverse effect on the health of the people. It also affects the vegetation growing near the traffic intersections. Among the various categories, air pollution by automobiles is the most insidious one, which exerts highly detrimental effects on living organisms. Ambient air pollution in several large cities of India is amongst some of the highest in the world. Present study deals with the observation made on Cassia occidentalis on different roadsides having heavy pollution load in comparison to control. The studies were made on Cassia occidentalis taken from Garh Road, Delhi Road, Railway Road, and University Road. Reduction in chlorophyll contents were found to be depends on pollution concentration. An increase significant reduction was observed at highly polluted sites due to high concentration of automobile pollution, chlorophyll a, chlorophyll b and total chlorophyll content were reduced.
