Summary/Abstract |
There are numerous interpretations of Gandhi’s thoughts in association with environmental sustainability. However, there is a need for a clearer conception of his ideas such as non-violence and Sarvodaya in order to further elucidate its relevance in the present-day sustainability discourse. Gandhi’s ideas on development suggested a bottom-up approach to comprehend the realities of rural development. For him, development planning implied focussing on the poorest of the poor i.e., the concept of Antyodaya.
