The XITE College makes every effort to create an environment in which both teachers and students can devote significant attention to the need and importance of critical analysis and investigation. The current book, in my opinion, is the consequence of such an activity. First and foremost, I thank the contributors of the book for studying the subject with a razor-sharp keen intellect. In the same vein, I'd like to thank the college's research cell, led by Dr. (Fr.) Mukti and Dr. Sanchita Ghosh for taking a keen interest in this project and carrying it out with audacity. I must acknowledge that the title of this book, "Towards Sustainable Growth in India: Connecting the Missing Dots," is well chosen.
A topic of this sort must be examined and investigated because of its importance. As far as I can tell, sustainability is a prevalent topic these days. As a result, its definition, measurement, implication, and application become universal. If India is to achieve sustainable growth, the current research problem must be addressed: what is a success, are we losing sight of sustainability, is sustainability a just cliche?
Meeting our own needs without risking future generations' ability to satisfy their own is what sustainability means. The United
Nations declared 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for 2030 (eradication of poverty and hunger; provision of quality
education, wellbeing, gender equality, clean water, clean energy, economic growth, climate action, and peace). As a result, the
chapters in this book address two key areas: understanding the concept and its implications. Rapid technological progress, more
corporate enterprise, population growth, increased governmental engagement in business, and increased social consciousness make development work critical. These elements influence how people think about sustainability and its implications.
I am sure the contributors of the book worked hard to put their reflections together to educate young minds about the fundamental concepts and principles of sustainability. Thus, this book will become a good friend to you and help you comprehend the complex concept of sustainability, allow you to analyze any project through the desired lens, and raise our society's esteem and morale to new heights.
