In recent years the large scale urbanization, industrialization and associated environmental alteration and its impact on biodiversity pose a threat to human existence and hence there is a need to pursue industrial development with a sense of responsibility. It is possible through sustainable development. Sustainable development postulates balance between environmental and developmental concerns. The Indian Supreme Court has been proactive in importing sustainable development principles from international environmental law into the Indian law through different judicial tools and strategies. This paper analyzes the concept of sustainable development and contribution of Indian Supreme Court in establishing the norms of sustainability for the government and the development proponents.
