ABSTRACT
The awareness regarding sustainable development is increasing. Propagated mainly by the experiences of the developed countries, sustainability is now getting applied to almost all levels of human development, viz., infrastructure, systems, and communities; the rate of such applications is rather slow. What are gradually getting imbibed are the “sustainability sense” and consequently the aspiration to evolve systems for measuring sustainability in a consolidated way while being cognizant of the social-economical-environmental and their interactional influences.
