Abstract

By announcing the 2030 Global Agenda in 2015, the UN made a significant choice to move on with sustainable development. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are an international policy agenda that aims to create a world free from violence, sickness, hunger and poverty so that all life forms can flourish and the planet becomes secure, resilient and sustainable. For the last more than seven years, India and other UN members have been putting the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development- which has 17 main goals and 169 targets in practice. The fifteen years SDG implementation period ends in December 2030. Nonetheless, certain goals are scheduled for early completion in 2020 and 2025. The 2030 agenda shared goals and the SDGs implementation have less than eight years remaining. Additionally, the UN declared that this decade would be the “Decade of Action” in order to quicken the pace of SDG implementation and ensure that they are completed on schedule. The continuous epidemic, crises, and violence have made it difficult to execute the SDGs. Nations are working very hard to get their economies back on track and to overcome obstacles in the way of implementing the SDGs quickly enough to meet the targets on time. In addition to the UN, a few international organizations such as Sustainable Development Solutions Network (SDSN) and the OECD provide SDG monitoring reports for their member nations as well as the global level. The paper examines, using a comprehensive approach from the targets that must be addressed over the remaining time of SDG implementation at the country level. The majority of India’s SDG implementation efforts have been positive. The gaps from the objective that must be filled at the indicator, target and indicator and goal levels, however differ greatly from one another. It is also mentioned that leveraging the goals connections can improve allocative effectiveness. The conclusion is that India must step up its efforts to meet the SDGs on schedule and that international development assistance is critical to encourage the institutional and human capacity building process. Significant financial commitments, extensive collaboration, and alliances among all parties involved will be necessary for this. This paper develops and examines a Global SDG Progress Index that uses reported nations ranking and grading factors to encourage all countries to improve SDG performance, regardless of their ranking. The research indicates that the present pace of advancement in developing counties, based on GDP per capita values, is insufficient for equal acceptance with the SDGs at a level which is worldwide.
