Model Answer:

Setting up of a solar unit by Srilanka and India will be helpful in achieving SDG. Examine.

The concept of the SDGs was born at the United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development, Rio+20, in 2012. The objective was to produce a set of universally applicable goals that balances the three dimensions of sustainable development: environmental, social, and economic. UN Member States adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, which includes a set of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to end poverty, fight inequality and injustice, and tackle climate change by 2030. Setting up of solar unit soon in eastern port town Trincomalee by India and srilanka will help in achieving SDG goals.

The proposed solar power plant is in line with Soorya Bala Sangramaya (Battle for solar energy) an initiative by Srilanka will influence other island nations to come up with similar kind of project as well.
