文化的背景
The concept of 'Seva' (selfless service) is the spiritual ancestor of this phrase. It is common to see people volunteering at religious sites as a way of fulfilling their duty to the community. India was the first country to make CSR mandatory by law for certain companies. This has made the phrase 'सामाजिक उत्तरदायित्व' extremely common in Indian business news. Modern Indian youth often use this phrase in social media activism, especially regarding climate change and gender equality, signaling a shift from traditional 'charity' to 'rights-based' responsibility. In villages, 'Panchayats' (village councils) often discuss the 'uttar-dāyitva' of members toward the village's common resources like wells and grazing lands.
Use in Interviews
Mentioning this phrase in a job interview shows you understand corporate values and are a responsible citizen.
Don't over-Sanskritize
In casual chats, stick to 'zimmedārī' (responsibility). Save 'uttar-dāyitva' for formal writing or speeches.

What It Means
Samajik uttardayitva nibhana is about being a good human. It is the act of giving back to your community. It covers everything from big charity work to small acts. Think of it as your 'social debt' paid in kindness. It is about looking beyond your own needs. You are acknowledging that you belong to a larger group.
How To Use It
You use this when discussing duties toward others. It works well when talking about volunteering or environmental help. Use it when someone goes out of their way for a cause. It sounds noble and very grounded. You can use it for individuals or big companies. Even a small act like recycling counts here.
When To Use It
Use it in professional meetings about CSR. Use it when praising a friend for helping a stranger. It is perfect for serious discussions about society. You might hear it on the news often. Use it in school essays or formal speeches. It adds a layer of maturity to your conversation.
When NOT To Use It
Don't use it for small personal favors. If a friend buys you coffee, this is too heavy. It is not for basic chores like cleaning your room. Avoid it in very light, sarcastic banter with close friends. It can sound a bit 'preachy' if used wrongly. Don't use it if the action is purely for profit.
Cultural Background
In India, the concept of 'Dharma' or duty is huge. Helping the community is seen as a path to merit. This phrase reflects the collective nature of Indian society. We are taught that our success belongs to everyone. It became very popular during social reform movements. Today, it is the standard term for Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR).
Common Variations
You can say kartavya pura karna for general duty. Samaj seva is more about direct service. Zimmedari uthana means to take the responsibility. Farz nibhana is a more poetic, Urdu-influenced version. Each carries a slightly different weight of emotion. Nibhana specifically implies a long-term commitment, not a one-time act.
使い方のコツ
The phrase is high-register. It is most common in journalism, corporate environments, and formal speeches, but it is also used in daily life to express serious moral approval.
Use in Interviews
Mentioning this phrase in a job interview shows you understand corporate values and are a responsible citizen.
Don't over-Sanskritize
In casual chats, stick to 'zimmedārī' (responsibility). Save 'uttar-dāyitva' for formal writing or speeches.
The 'Apnā' factor
Always use 'apnā' (one's own) before the phrase to emphasize personal commitment: 'अपना सामाजिक उत्तरदायित्व'.

よくある質問
5 問No, while it's the term for CSR, individuals also have social responsibilities like voting or protecting the environment.
It's grammatically okay but sounds very unnatural. 'Nibhānā' is the standard collocation for roles and responsibilities.
'Kartavya' is duty (what you must do), while 'Uttar-dāyitva' is responsibility/accountability (what you are answerable for).
Only if the topic is serious. For daily chores, use 'kām' or 'zimmedārī'.
You can say 'कॉर्पोरेट सामाजिक उत्तरदायित्व' (Corporate Sāmājik Uttar-dāyitva).
