Approach to the Fifth Plan 1974-79

Abstract

Removal of poverty and attainment of economic self-reliance arc the two major tasks which the country has set out to accomplish. It must, at the same time, firmly move forward towards consolidation of the democratic political order, prevention of concentration of economic power, reduction of disparities in income and wealth, attainment of balanced regional development, and spread of the institutions, values and attitudes of a free and just society.
