By : Ruchi Gupta
Page No: 366-374
Abstract
Green growth is a critical development strategy focused on achieving a balanced economic expansion with environmental sustainability. The study examines the concept, evolution, and progress of green growth in the Indian context. It evaluates sectoral trends, the government initiatives, policies, and economicenvironmental indicators to assess the growth trajectory. The findings reveal that progress towards green growth in a few sectors has been measurable. The ecological degradation of a sensitive region such as the Aravalli Range, exhibits a gap between green growth and environmental implications. Key challenges have been identified, and the study concludes with suggestions that strengthening policy initiatives, green finance, and development aligning with sustainability are essential to India’s path to a green growth trajectory.
