Author(s) Mr. Manju B, Prof. S Venkatesh

Abstract Karnataka has made significant progress towards achieving the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030, as evidenced by its score of 75 out of 100 in the National Institute for Transforming India (NITI) Aayog's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) India Index for the fiscal year 2023-24. However, the state continues to face challenges in areas such as gender equality, resource control, and environmental sustainability. This paper reviews Karnataka's performance across 10 SDGs, highlighting achievements and gaps. Notable advancements include the use of technology and financial inclusion, whereas key issues remain in poverty alleviation, education, and infrastructure development. The state has implemented various schemes and programs to address these challenges, such as the 'Anna Bhagya' scheme for food security, 'Sarva Siksha Abhiyan' for education, and 'Jal Jeevan Mission' for safe drinking water. Despite this progress, Karnataka needs to focus on improving health worker density, mental health support, and road safety. Gender disparities persist in areas such as spousal violence, women's participation in decision-making, and access to economic resources. To achieve sustainable development, Karnataka must prioritize inclusive and equitable reforms across multiple sectors, ensuring no community is left behind. By addressing these challenges through targeted interventions and policy changes, Karnataka can pave the way for a sustainable future for all its citizens.
