Explain common, different and conflicting goals by giving suitable examples.

Ans. (1) Common goals: There are some needs which are common to all like income, freedom, equality, security, respect, friendship, etc.

(2) Different goals: Development or progress does not mean the same thing for every individual. Each individual has his own idea of development. For example, development for a farmer may be better irrigation facilities; for unemployed youth, it may mean better employment opportunities, etc.

(3) Conflicting goals: What may be developed for some, may become destructive for some others. For example, industrialists may want dams for electricity but such dams would displace the natives of the region.
