 Essay Writing for SBI PO, IBPS PO Mains Exams – Set 35

35) Improvement in sustainable development goal achievement- contribution of NITI Aayog to improve
the ranking
The NITI Aayog has always been of a view that the sustainable transformation is imperative in the long-
term development of India and because our cities and urban areas play a prominent role in the same,
their development and monitoring on certain parameters is crucial. Keeping these goals in perspective,
the NITI Aayog along with the GIZ and the BMZ came up with a dashboard and an index that ranks 56
urban areas on various indicators. A report has also been released recently in which Shimla,
Coimbatore, Chandigarh, Thiruvananthapuram and Kochi have come up as the top performers or
achievers. However, Dhanbad, Meerut, Itanagar, Guwahati and Patna are trailing as the worst
performers as per the index.
Some of the goals that have been used to define the performers in the index are: No Poverty, Zero
Hunger, Good Health and Well-Being, Quality Education, Gender Equality, Clean water and Sanitization,
Affordable and Clean Energy, Responsible Consumption and Production, Climate Action, Peace and
Justice etc. Different cities have fared well under different parameters. The urban areas are ranked on a
scale of 0-100. A score of 100 implies that the urban area has achieved the targets set for 2030; a score
of 0 implies that it is the farthest from achieving the targets among the selected urban areas. Overall or
composite urban area scores are then generated from the Goal-wise scores to measure aggregate
performance of the urban area. No city could achieve a perfect score though.
