III. BACKGROUND AND CONTEXT


A late starter in joining the modern developmental welfare state, the Government of Arunachal
Pradesh has been moving steadily towards these goals. To achieve the goal of a welfare state the vision
of the Arunachal Pradesh in alignment with SDG goals is formulated with the following objectives.

I. DEVELOP INFRASTRUCTRUE
II. HARNESS POTENTIALITY
III. PROVIDE QUALITY OF LIFE

DEVELOP INFRASTRUCTURE

Figure 1 Vision of Arunachal Pradesh

I DEVELOP INFRASTRUCTURE

Infrastructure bottleneck has been the bane for the development of the state’s overall economy. It has
affected every aspects of life in the state. Of late lots of emphasis has been made in this aspects by the
State Government as well as by the Central Government to improve the infrastructure in terms of
connectivity, health, education, security etc. The primary objective of the State Government will be to
develop overall infrastructure in the state to achieve the next objectives i.e., harness the potentialities
the state has in abundances.

II HARNESS POTENTIALITY

The State of Arunachal Pradesh is rich in its natural resources and scenic beauty. The State Government
aims to identify amongst many potentiality, give emphasis on Organic Agri Allied Activities, Tourism and
Hydro Power. When these potential areas are harness by the state government it will empower the
farmers of the state, employ the youths and empower the State financially. The objective to harness
these potentialities of the state is in tune to sustainable development goals adopted by the
Government.

III PROVIDE QUALITY OF LIFE

As a welfare state enshrined in the constitution, the duty of the government is to provide a quality life
for all to live in dignity. When the State government is able to improve infrastructure, harness the

Department of Finance, Planning & Investment (State Plan Division), Government of Arunachal Pradesh (2016 )
potentiality and provide an environment of peace and equality of opportunities, quality of life will
improve.

IV SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOAL 2030

Being a signatory to the United Nation Sustainable Development Summit in September 2015, India
as a member country has also adopted the Sustainable Development goal 2030 (SDG 2030) as the
funding framework for its National Development Agenda till 2030.

The issue of sustainability has gained popularity of the policy makers with the advancement of
human rights where the premise of few wealthy individuals taking advantages over larger poor
individuals over the usage of scarce natural resources has risen with priority. In this context the
definition of sustainability development means “economic development that meets the needs of the
present generation without compromising the ability of future generation to meet their own needs”.
Another definition takes a broader view by defining sustainable development as “ The kind of human
activity that nourishes and perpetuates the historical fulfillment of the whole community of life on
earth”.

Sustainable Development Goals indicators play a role in giving directions to the objectives of the
goal by meeting two distinct requirements of indicator sets:

(1) They have to provide vital information, providing a picture about the current state
and corresponding viability of that system; and
(2) They have to provide sufficient information about the system’s contribution to the
performance of other systems that depend on them.

In keeping with the objectives, the following Sustainable Goals have been set.
