Description
Planned Economy for India is a foundational work by Sir M. Visvesaraya, one of India’s most prominent engineers and economists. The book presents a comprehensive framework for organizing India’s economic structure through systematic planning and rational resource allocation.
Visvesaraya advocates for state-led industrialization, agricultural development, and infrastructure modernization as key pillars of national progress. The work addresses the challenges facing post-independence India and proposes innovative solutions for poverty alleviation, employment generation, and balanced regional development.
This seminal text influenced Indian economic policy and planning models, including the establishment of the Planning Commission. It remains relevant for understanding India’s developmental trajectory and the economic philosophy that shaped the nation’s five-year plans.
