Q26. “India’s development challenges are increasingly linked to global economic and environmental changes.” Discuss.
Globalisation has deeply interconnected India’s economy with global markets. Fluctuations in global growth, energy prices, and supply chains directly affect domestic development.
Similarly, global environmental changes such as climate change and biodiversity loss impact agriculture, water security, and livelihoods in India. Developing countries face disproportionate risks.
Addressing these challenges requires global cooperation along with strong domestic resilience and adaptive policymaking.
Q27. “Urbanisation can be both an opportunity and a challenge for India’s economic and environmental security.” Examine.
Urbanisation drives economic growth through agglomeration, innovation, and employment generation. Cities act as engines of development.
However, unplanned urbanisation leads to problems such as pollution, housing shortages, traffic congestion, and stress on water and sanitation. These can create governance and security challenges.
Sustainable urban planning, infrastructure investment, and effective governance are essential to harness urbanisation benefits while minimising risks.
Q28. “Why is water security emerging as a critical concern for India’s development?” Analyse.
Water is central to agriculture, industry, and human survival. India faces declining groundwater levels, pollution, and uneven distribution of water resources.
Climate change, population growth, and inefficient water use have intensified water stress. Inter-state water disputes also reflect growing scarcity.
Ensuring water security through conservation, efficient usage, and institutional reforms is essential for sustainable development.
Q29. “Discuss the role of technology in improving agricultural resilience.”
Technology enhances agricultural resilience through improved seeds, precision farming, and weather forecasting. Digital platforms improve access to information and markets.
Technologies such as remote sensing and AI-based advisory services help farmers manage risks and improve productivity. However, access and affordability remain challenges.
Inclusive dissemination of technology is essential to strengthen agricultural resilience and farmers’ income.
Q30. “Explain how governance reforms can strengthen India’s economic and internal security.”
Governance reforms improve efficiency, transparency, and accountability. They enhance policy implementation and service delivery.
Weak governance can fuel inequality, corruption, and unrest, posing risks to internal security. Economic stability also depends on effective regulatory institutions.
Thus, strengthening governance institutions is critical for sustainable economic growth and internal security.
