It serves as a methodological tool to explore, analyze, and understand complex issues or phenomena, ranging from individual experiences to organizational challenges. Typically employed in various academic disciplines, business settings, and scientific research, a case study involves an extensive investigation that aims to provide a detailed account of the subject under scrutiny. By delving into the intricate details of a specific case, researchers can uncover valuable insights, draw conclusions, and offer practical solutions. This method offers a holistic approach, allowing for a nuanced understanding of the multifaceted factors influencing the subject, making it an invaluable tool for gaining knowledge and informing decision-making processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_73 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<label for=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69e72faaa71bd\" class=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-label\"><p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-cssicon\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/label><input type=\"checkbox\"  id=\"ez-toc-cssicon-toggle-item-69e72faaa71bd\"  \/><nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/edukemy.com\/blog\/case-study-no-5-upsc-mains-solved-paper-gs-4-2016\/#Q13_ABC_Ltd_Is_a_large_transnational_company_having_diversified_business_activities_with_a_huge_shareholder_base_The_company_is_continuously_expanding_and_generating_employment_The_company_in_its_expansion_and_diversification_programme_decides_to_establish_a_new_plant_at_Vikaspuri_an_area_which_is_underdeveloped_The_new_plant_is_designed_to_use_energy_efficient_technology_that_will_help_the_company_to_save_production_cost_by_20_The_companys_decision_goes_well_with_the_Government_policy_of_attracting_investment_to_develop_such_underdeveloped_regions_The_government_has_also_announced_a_tax_holiday_for_five_years_for_the_companies_that_invest_in_underdeveloped_areas_However_the_new_plant_may_bring_chaos_for_the_inhabitants_of_Vikaspuri_region_which_is_otherwise_tranquil_The_new_plant_may_result_in_increased_cost_of_living_aliens_migrating_to_the_region_disturbing_the_social_and_economic_order_The_company_sensing_the_possible_protest_tried_to_educate_the_people_of_Vikaspuri_region_and_public_in_general_that_how_its_Corporate_Social_Responsibility_CSR_policy_would_help_overcome_the_likely_difficulties_of_the_residents_of_Vikaspuri_region_In_spite_of_this_the_protests_began_and_some_of_the_residents_decided_to_approach_the_judiciary_as_their_plea_before_the_Government_did_not_yield_any_result\" title=\"Q13.

Social responsibility is an obligation that industries have to act in ways that benefit the society. It means that businesses have a compulsion to help out the poor, or to help clean up the environment because a lot they extract from society and the environment to grow economically.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Issues_involved_in_this_case\"><\/span><strong>Issues involved in this case:<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Due to limited livelihood options, the increased cost of living for the people most of which might belong to lower middle-class strata or below will become a major problem to handle.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li><li>Since the area is already underdeveloped resources like land, water, public services like health, and education, a planned sewer management system will be inadequate. An under-planned area with sudden migration of people will not be able to cater to the basic needs like health, residence or education for the people which is known to have long-term effects.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li><li>Though the company claims to tackle all the difficulties through CSR, construction of basic infrastructure can take a lot of time which may further add to the chaos.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Ways_to_satisfy_the_companys_goals_to_address_residents_concerns\"><\/span><strong>Ways to satisfy the company\u2019s goals to address resident\u2019s concerns:<\/strong>\u00a0\u00a0<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Environmental impact assessment should be conducted in the first place with a non-partisan approach.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li><li>Government and Company must work in tandem to ensure that the problems of the residents are taken care of through the CSR programs.

If the residents are convinced that the intentions are as genuine as the talks they will not be bothered with the project.\u00a0\u00a0<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Blockade always arises due to lack of faith and doubt on the intentions of the company, which is always seen as profit making. To negate this company should adhere to its promises which in turn will be benevolent for both the parties. Such cases bring in the question of right of life versus development of community. For example, lands were acquired by the Andhra government for developing the capital city of Amravati and they were promised that 20% of their land will be returned after being developed. Such initiatives instill confidence in people, and they would eventually not oppose such development.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><a href=\"https:\/\/edukemy.com\/upsc\/upsc-essay?utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Banner&amp;utm_campaign=Essay\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/edukemy.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/06\/UPSC-Essay-Course-1280\u00d7300-1-3.svg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-42688 lazyload\" width=\"781\" height=\"182\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 781px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 781\/182;\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"In_case_you_still_have_your_doubts_contact_us_on_9811333901\"><\/span><strong>In case you still have your doubts, contact us on 9811333901.<\/strong>&nbsp;<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For UPSC Prelims Resources,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/edukemy.com\/upsc-cse-prelims-resource-centre\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Click here<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Daily Updates and Study Material:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Join our Telegram Channel &#8211;&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/t.me\/WithEdukemy4IAS\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Edukemy for IAS<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>1.
