Without embracing environmental sustainability (ES), the universal concept of Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) cannot be achieved in today's world. As an inseparable part of SDGs, ES can help the nations to fulfil the goal of Agenda 2030. The world, particularly the developing countries, is now encountering several environmental problems, including carbon dioxide (CO2) emission, hazardous pollution, climate change, global warming, floods, droughts, deforestation, excessive and less rainfall crisis, scarcity of food, water and other natural resources, misuse and overconsumption of natural resources, and loss of biodiversity. All these factors heavily impact our natural environment and cause irreparable loss. Our study finds that with unsustainable socio-economic development, environmental degradation is rising worldwide. We argue that human activities in the name of development are the main reasons for destroying the environment and natural resources. In this study, we explore that despite taking significant initiatives by the United Nations engaging the member countries to protect the earth from the aboementioned environmental problems, these problems are still prevalent in many countries in the world. Our study finds that irresponsible human activities primarily hinder sustainable development progress, which is essential for present and future generations. In this article, we find that embracing the environmental sustainability approach for all countries is necessary to ensure holistic sustainable development.

This paper aimed at examining the growing influence of China and India in South Asian nations. Both China and India have been doing their utmost to consolidate their influence in this sub-continent through economic, political and military deployment. Although Beijing and New Delhi both want to conquer the heart of neighbor state governments; but Beijing's regional policy primarily focuses on to ensure peace and stability in this region for China's internal stability, sustainable economic development and for slacking the powers of the West particularly the US. India, on the other hand, believes that China wants to contain it with the name of help to its neighboring countries which in fact has stolen the peace of New Delhi. The mistrust between the two countries has been reached in a high peak after the border conflicts and global pandemic (COVID-19) followed by vaccine diplomacy.
