“…This could pose a potential threat, and therefore we ought to be cautious while using this technology so that it doesn't widen the gap between the haves and the have-nots. (Barton, 2021) If not, in the times to come, it might become difficult to separate the real from the artificial. The presence of Science and Technology is ubiquitous and therefore we should use it for global wellbeing.…”

As adopted by the United Nations, the 2030 agenda for sustainable development envisions the earth to be a better place by the year 2030 while giving a blueprint on the way to get there. The goal is to remove inequality, poverty, and strife while rejuvenating the planet by taking care of the environment. As a developing country and the second most populous country globally, India will hold the key to attaining these goals. The Government of India (GoI) is committed to realizing sustainable development goals (SDGs) as laid out by the United Nations (UN). The National Agenda for inclusive growth and progress, as reflected in its motto of "Sabka Saath Sabka Vikas" is closely aligned with the goals laid out by the UN. In the "Voluntary National Review (VNR)" submitted to the UN, India has taken stock of the global agenda through the narratives of Sashakt Bharat -Sabal Bharat (Empowered and Resilient India), Swachh Bharat -Swasth Bharat (Clean and Healthy India), Samagra Bharat -Saksham Bharat (Inclusive and Entrepreneurial India), Satat Bharat -Sanatan Bharat (Sustainable India) and Sampanna Bharat-Samriddh Bharat (Prosperous and Vibrant India). To this end, the GoI has also come out with an SDG Index to keep track of the progress made. This paper will study the progress made in the schemes mentioned in the above narratives by using information from secondary sources and giving suggestions for improvement.
