Answer to be written
- Two persons or groups of persons, at times may seek conflicting things .
- What may be developed for one may not be developed for the other . It may even be destructive to others.
- For example-
-
- A girl expects as much freedom and opportunity as her brother and that he also shares in the household work . Her brother may not like this.
- Similarly, to get more electricity , industrialists may want more dams . But, this may submerge the land and disrupt the lives of people who are displaced such as tribals. They might resent this and prefer small check dams to irrigate the land.
