| Abstract | The evidence of UNDESA framework of sustainability assessment in MCDM paradigm is scarce generically and particularly, the status of sustainability of Indian states has never been assessed in accordance with UNDESA 2007 framework. This paper is an attempt to explore the paradigm of Multi-criteria Decision Making (MCDM) Methods in construction of sustainability index. To do so, we have used methods namely, Simple Additive Weighted Sum (SAWM), ELECTRE II, TOPSIS, PROMETHEE on the United Nations CSD indicators framework to evaluate the sustainability status of different states of India, which is among the fastest growing countries of todays world. We also try to understand the relative stability and distributional property of sustainability ranks obtained by different states. The ranks obtained by the different Methods are found to be relatively stable in comparative aspect. This implies that the choice of method does not make a big difference if the policy makers are interested for a group of entities to reward the superiors and support the laggards. On the other hand, a comprehensible and tractable method can be recommended for policy practice instead of less comprehensible one. Of course, use of a compendium of MCDM methods is always preferable for robustness analysis in decision-analytic aspect. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
