Abstract

When development is the main aim of every economy and every step of the people as well as government is to achieve higher level of development; how can we forget the real meaning of development? How can we forget the required end for which all these developmental activities are performed? Human welfare is the main concern of all developmental activities and health is the primary requirement to increase the welfare of the people and also to enjoy the benefits of the development. When development is achieved at the cost of toll on our health and life, it becomes totally undesirable. In India, as all over the world, Air pollution has come as a threat for people to live their life to the fullest and to their maximum. Government has taken many efforts but its dismal situation tells about the need to be handled it on priority basis and with much more extensive and intensive efforts, if we want to increase our welfare in real terms.
