Abstract

Objectives: This study aims to understand the economic growth and hindrances to gaining independence through rectifying strategies in various belts to accomplish sustainability in Bangladesh. Methods: To identify the economic odyssey, data are secondarily collected from different government, semi-government, and private institutes, and comparisons are made on GDP, through various economic sectors, and carbon dioxide emissions from 1971 to 2021. Results: This study highlights the significant growth of a robust manufacturing sector while addressing issues such as reliance on specific industries, environmental degradation, and a lack of diversity. Conclusion: Obstacles continue to exist, like industrial vulnerability, environmental pollution, and a lack of efficiency and effectiveness in productivity. Overcoming these challenges would shape economic sustainability and help it emerge as an economic high-flyer.
