The term "poverty" means the state of being extremely poor or the state of being inferior in terms of quality. It is not about having enough money to meet the physiological needs of an individual but it is much more than what was understood. The World Bank describes poverty as hunger, lack of shelter, being uneducated and sick, not having a job or basic security, and being afraid for the future. On 25th September, 2015, 193 member countries assembled together at the UNs General Assembly to take an oath to transform the world into a better place to live and to ensure that development takes place in such a way that natural resources are sustained and passed on to future generations unimpaired by means of adopting Agenda 2030. The United Nations has listed a total of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the first goal is to eradicate poverty in all its forms. This paper seeks to find out whether India is moving towards poverty eradication by providing basic needs to the people, proper health care facilities, proper education, job security, and growth, ensuring significant mobilisation of resources from different sectors and implementing those factors within 2030 as per UNs Agenda. In this paper, the study has been conducted in a descriptive manner and the data has been gathered from different secondary sources. The results also highlight how India is moving towards poverty eradication by following SDG 1.
