ABSTRACT Sustainable development is “development that meets the needs of the present, without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs”. The right to development must be fulfilled so as to equitably meet developmental and environmental needs of present and future generations. As the world is progressing towards a healthy developmental phase where governments are promoting transnational trade across the border, the reality of depleting natural resources and global warming remains a matter of concern not only to India but also to the world in general. Where various international treaties and bilateral agreements towards achieving sustainable development have been signed and ratified by most countries, their implementation remains in vain. This research paper highlights the historical development of treaties related to environmental protection and sustainable development with special emphasis on Paris agreement of 2015 and Brundtland report of 1987. The paper analyse India’s progress towards the ratification and implementation of international treaties. India as the largest democracy and second most populated country in the world where the need for natural resources is in abundance has always centered its policies towards achieving sustainable development. The present government is introducing new policies like National Clean Energy Fund for the production of clean and green energy, National Mission to introduce electric vehicles to minimize pollution and its contribution towards generating renewable energy with special emphasis on boosting solar plant sector highlights India’s seriousness towards achieving sustainable development goals within the stipulated time. Global politics should praise India’s efforts and its policies towards achieving the aforesaid goals.
