The issue of sustainability is important for development because  

It requires preservation of stock of resources including exhaustible natural resources and environmental resources. Recent studies show that groundwater in India is exhausted because of overuse. 1/3 of the country is overusing its groundwater reserves.

The issue of sustainability is important for development because of the passage of time the generation changes and with this change society wants more and more benefits from the resources which are present in our nature. Because of the increasing needs of people of our society things are decaying day by day and excessive use is making things worse. If the speed of using resources remains same then the available resources will be exhausted soon and our coming generation will stay deprived from all kind of needs. The issue of sustainability is important for development because of the following reasons:
a) The growth and development should be done by keeping in mind the future usage.
b) If resources will not be sustained then our natural resources will stagnate after some time and no any upcoming generation will be able to take the advantage of these natural resources.
