“India’s economic plans are a conscious effort to galvanize all the forces working in the society so as to foster social as well as individual development. When India became free in 1947, there were great challenges in front of her. She was steeped in mass unemployment and under development, an illiterate and untrained labour forces. Her problems required a big national effort in economic front.” (jacket)
