Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
It is true that development for one may not be development for the other.
(i) More wages means development for a worker, but it can go against the entrepreneur.
(ii) A rich farmer or trader wants to sell foodgrains at a higher price but a poor worker wants to purchase it for low prices.
(iii) Construction of a dam means more and cheap power, but people, who will lose their habitat will demonstrate.
(iu) To get more electricity, the industrialists may want more dams. But this may submerge the agricultural land, and disrupt the lives of the people.
Different people have different development goals
Development involves many questions for better life and the ways in which one can work to achieve goals
Since every individual is different from the other, the notion of development also varies.
The difference in social and economic positions of the people generally results in different goals of development.
For example,
Development goals of landless rural labour: he may seek to earn more wages
Development goals of farmers who depend on rain for growing crops: he may expect more rain to grow crops well for his livelihood
Development goals of children pursing for higher education in abroad: Children may work hard to score good marks and to go abroad for higher education.
