Why it matters
The debate highlights the critical challenge of balancing rapid economic growth with ecological sustainability in developing nations.
One of the most defining policy debates of our time is that of development versus environment. With India pursuing various infrastructure and economic goals, there is worry that environmental concerns may not be receiving the attention they deserve. These issues will be explored in a panel discussion at The Hindu Huddle in Bengaluru on June 6. The session will feature Jairam Ramesh, former Union Environment Minister and Congress MP, and Dr. Krithi Karanth, conservation biologist and CEO of the Centre for Wildlife Studies. The discussion will be moderated by Gargi Rawat, Consulting Editor, NDTV.
