Responsible Supply Chains: Ethical Sourcing and ESG Integration

Photo Credit: Shekhar Ghosh In today’s interconnected world, supply chains are no longer invisible threads quietly stitching together production and consumption. They are under a spotlight—examined, questioned, and increasingly held accountable. The concept of responsible supply chains has emerged not as a trend, but as a necessity. At its core lies a commitment to ethical sourcing and the integration of Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) principles into every stage of operations. Ethical sourcing is the foundation of a responsible supply chain. It demands that companies look beyond cost efficiency and speed, and instead consider the human and environmental impact of their procurement decisions. This means ensuring that raw materials are obtained without exploitation, that workers are paid fair wages, and

The Fire Must Burn: A Call to Collective CSR Action

The evolution of Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) in India has been nothing short of transformational. What began as a compliance mandate under Section 135 of the Companies Act, 2013 has today evolved into a dynamic ecosystem driving measurable social impact and aligning closely with national development priorities. As we step into the financial year 2026–27, particularly in the context of “PSU Day,” it is an opportune moment to reflect on where CSR stands today and where it is headed. At this juncture, the timeless words of Dushyant Kumar resonate deeply: “हो गई है पीर पर्वत-सी पिघलनी चाहिए, इस हिमालय से कोई गंगा निकलनी चाहिए।” The pain has piled up like a mountain it must now melt; from this Himalaya, a

A Participative Approach to Water Restoration: SST and Communities Restoring Water Security Together

In many of the 2500 villages where Srinivasan Services Trust (SST) works, water bodies that once sustained agriculture through the year now run dry within months of the monsoon. Tanks that once held rainwater through the year have gradually lost capacity due to siltation. Supply channels have narrowed or disappeared. Wells run dry soon after the monsoon, while intense rainfall over short periods causes local flooding and waterlogging. This imbalance – characterised by excessive water availability at times and insufficient water when needed – has impacted agriculture, livelihoods, and overall resilience. SST’s water conservation initiative is shaped by this reality. Rather than introducing new systems in isolation, the focus has been on restoring existing water bodies and strengthening them, so
