Answer»

There are certain shortcomings in the present development models. By solving those shortcomings and employing a new strategy we can bring progress in all spheres. 

Here are some suggestions: 

a) Respect people’s rights: When development projects are implemented, it may be beneficial to some sections of the society but harmful to others. For example, when an airport’ is constructed it will help in increasing travel facilities but it will adversely affect many others who will have to be relocated to other places. Their rights for equality, freedom, justice, and democracy are also to be respected in the alternative concept of development. 

b) Another problem that is stressed in the alternative concept of development is about the ownership of natural resources. Whose are they? Are they of the local people, of the nation or of the entire humanity? If the natural resources are owned by mankind, even the future generation has some claim on them. It is the duty of the government to solve all these problems. 

c) Ensure people participation in the development models. 

d) Development and environmental protection should go hand in hand
