Question

why do different individuals have different as well as conflicting notions of development goals class 10th​

Answer 1

Development goals may be common, different or conflicting:

(i) Common Goals: There are some needs which are common to all like income, freedom, equality, security, respect, friendship, etc.

(ii) Different Goals: Development or progress does not mean the same thing for every individual. Each individual has his own idea of development. For example, development for a farmer might be irrigation facilities; for an unemployed youth it may mean employment opportunities, etc.

(iii) Conflicting Goals: What may be development for some may become destruction for some others. Example, Industrialists may want dams for electricity, but such dams would displace the natives of a region by submerging their land.
