Dasharath. S. Naik

Published By : Laxmi Book Publication

Abstract :

India is a developing economy, the nature of unemployment existing in the rural India, sharply differs from the one that prevails is industrially advanced countries. A reduction of unemployment has been one of the principal objectives of economic planning in India. It has been envisaged that the growth of the economy would not only increase production but also provide the capacity for absorbing the backlog of unemployment and underemployment and a substantial proportion of the additions to the labour force. However, relatively low level of income from which the economy has to be pulled up, it was recognized that there would be some leakage in the percolation effect of growth and, in any case the percolation effects would not be sufficient to generate the required employment opportunities. It was, therefore, felt necessary in the different plans to have supplemental programmes for specific target groups and specific areas for employment creation, income generation and poverty alleviation (India,).
