The Challenges of Inclusive Growth in Indian Context
Inclusive growth is a very complex idea because inclusive growth encompasses various facets of growth process wherein different segments and sections of the society are given equal & fair opportunity. The process of development becomes one sided if such opportunity is not provided to different sections of the society. In India inclusive growth has become a major challenge due to various socio-economic & cultural constraints. It is very easy to talk about giving fair opportunities of equitable participation to different sections of the society but when it comes to practice, equity and equality turns out to be a most complex ordeal. This is mainly due to idea blocks and cultural restraint.India is a land of great devoid. The country is divided in different sections such as caste, creed, religions and regions and languages. Every section wants a better and higher share, in the growth process, resulting in uneven and unfair distribution of wealth and resources.The Planning process also is not focused to give justice to the concept of inclusive growth in its totality. Initial phase of planning process has resulted in giving impetus to the growth but at the same time it has restricted participation of all segments in the meaningful manner. Initial thrust area of planning process was improving growth related infrastructure. As such the planning process has not taken into account the requirement and expectation of all stakeholders. However, now growth has become a part of social and economic development. It becomes essential to share the benefits of growth process to all concerned. Growth should give equal & fair opportunities to all. One sided growth cannot be termed as development. From this point of view inclusive growth has become now a buzzword.Keywords: Inclusive growth, Participation of all stakeholders, Total approach to development Implications of inclusive growth and Menace of exclusive growth.
