Towards A Self-Reliant Economy India's Third Plan 1961-66

Abstract

India, the second largest and most densely populated of the countries of the world, began its first steps towards development just ten years ago as an independent nation. Today, the changing face of India, its new vitality, contrast sharply with the long stagnation of the past. In this ancient land, so long governed by tradition, the “winds of change” are blowing and affecting not only the dweller in the city but also the peasant in the field.
