Report on Village and Cottage Industries National Committee on the Development of Backward

Abstract

In the context of backward areas development, because of the various inherent limitations to the growth of the organised industries sector in these areas and because of the insufficient potentialities of agricultural development and the migration to urban areas where opportunities are already limited, the importance of the unorganised sector is significant, In addition, on account of the predominantly rural character of backward areas, the promotion of village and cottage industries assume a very significant role.
