Abstract
In this article, I confine myself only to the important aspects in the context of the society , man and environment and sustainable development and the role of the great Mauryan ruler As̕̕oka . The Beloved of the Gods, Piyadassi the king , Aśoka did something in the third century BC that we, the people of the twenty first century and the policy makers can learn from. For the last few years we found that the people of New Delhi, Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh and the adjacent region air pollution is highly risk to the life. In this context, it is very much relevant to follow to the great Mauryan talented military ruler and also an extraordinary statesman Asoka wanted to protect and provide clearly constitutional check against environment degradation and animal cruelty. The post Kalinga war era (261 BC) he adopted AHIMSA or nonviolence policy and gave up the predatory foreign policy that had characterised the Mauryan empire up till then. From this time, Asoka became a benevolent, noble minded and philanthropic administrator as well as he also became an enthusiastic supporter of forest conservation and preservation. Asoka believed that the state had a responsibility not just to protect and promote the welfare of its people but also its forests, environment and wildlife.
