Conclusion<br />

Corporate Social responsibility has<br />

many facets <strong>of</strong> developmental<br />

perceptive. Both the cases present two<br />

dimensions <strong>of</strong> the CSR and its impact<br />

on life <strong>of</strong> people. There are many hurdles<br />

in implementation <strong>of</strong> social responsible<br />

action with the community and meet their<br />

expectation. Corporate social<br />

responsibility is <strong>of</strong>ten looked as a<br />

unidirectional approach, i.e from<br />

company to the community, that is why,<br />

in most <strong>of</strong> the CSR led development<br />

program, the participation <strong>of</strong> the<br />

community is not very common. People<br />

as well as the government used have high<br />

expectation from the company to do the<br />

CSR mostly in form <strong>of</strong> Grant in Aid kind<br />

<strong>of</strong> approach, for which there is big<br />

question <strong>of</strong> sustainability in all CSR<br />

program. So there is need <strong>of</strong> active<br />

participation <strong>of</strong> the Government in the<br />

form <strong>of</strong> formulating policy and guidelines<br />

to implement CSR in a development<br />

approach. Similarly the company should<br />

look at building social and human capital<br />

as well. And the community should look<br />

company as catalytic agent to the<br />

development rather than a parallel<br />

system to Government, where in they<br />

have to participate actively and take the<br />

ownership. The first case while<br />

representing CSR a tool to pacify the<br />

stakeholder’s conflict, the other one<br />

brings solace for us by representing CSR<br />

as an approach to sustainable<br />

development and inclusive growth. Thus<br />

CSR is not the manifestation <strong>of</strong> conflict<br />

rather a consensus and collaboration<br />

<strong>of</strong> all key stakeholders <strong>of</strong> the companycommunity,<br />

civil society Organisation<br />

and the Government for sustainable<br />

development <strong>of</strong> people.<br />
