SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT - DEFINED

STOCKHOLM DECLARATION, 1972

Man has the fundamental right to freedom, equality and adequate conditions of life, in an environment of a quality that permits a life of dignity and well being and he bears a solemn responsibility to protect and improve the environment for present and future generation

It contains within it two key concepts: the concept of 'needs', in particular the essential needs of the world's poor, to which overriding priority should be given; and the idea of limitations imposed by the state of technology and social organization on the environment's ability to meet present NCCIRD 2010 BHU 5 and future needs.

INDUSTRIALIZATION CANNOT BE IGNORED Charkha: EMBLEM OF INDIAN INDUSTRIALIZATION SELF SUSTENANCE; IN A DEMOCRATIC SETUP

Q. WHAT DOES SOCIAL DEMOCRACY MEAN? A. It means a way of life which recognizes liberty, equality and
fraternity as the principles of life. These principles of liberty, equality and fraternity are not to be treated as separate items in a trinity. They form a union of trinity in the sense that to divorce one from the other is to defeat the very purpose of democracy Dr. AMBEDKAR
