Annual Plan West Bengal 1995-96 Volume-I

Abstract

The basic objectives which we keep before ourselves in formulating the proposal for the State Plan are: (a) generation of employment, to the maximum extent possible, by helping the growth of production in agriculture, industry and in services within the limited powers of the State, and (b) achieve further decentralisation by involving the common people through the elected Panchayats and municipalities in formulation and implementation of plan schemes. In addition, attempts are being made to narrow down the gap between the demand and supply of important item of mass consumption, such as is feasible and desirable at the level of the State.
