This book also focuses on the issues of employment, poverty, food, and nutrition. Other aspects of development policy reviewed are those of fostering inter-state cooperation or optimum utilization of resources, privatization policy to mobilize funds for social sector development, and pattern of adoption of improved technologies by small scale industries in India.
