The Centre on Monday reiterated India's commitment to protecting the Ozone layer on 25th World Ozone Day.

Ozone layer is a shield of earth's stratosphere which absorbs sun's ultraviolet radiations.

"On the occasion of the 25th World Ozone Day, India reiterates its commitment to protect the Ozone layer," Union Environment Minister Prakash Javadekar said in a series of tweets.

"The World Ozone Day 2019 is being celebrated globally with the theme '32 Years and Healing'. It reminds us that we must keep up the momentum for ensuring the continued protection of the stratospheric Ozone layer."
