17/06/2014 17:42
Sending out a signal to the developed world on the issue of climate change, India today said developing countries like it have "a right to grow" and in the process "our net emission may increase", reported PTI. According to media reports, Environment Minister Prakash Javadekar underlined that the problem of carbon emission has not been created by the developing nations and hence responsibility for addressing it should not be solely put on them. "We have to reduce our carbon emissions. But I have not created the carbon emission problems, which have been done by others. But I am not into any blame game. The issue is that I have a right to grow. India and developing countries have right to grow. These are the emerging economies," the Minister said.
