Discuss the problem that the five year plans were unable to address?
Dear Student
The problems that the five year plans were unable to address were-
i)Abject Poverty-Alleviation of poverty was the central theme of planning but 22%of population in India still lives below the poverty line.
ii)High Rate of Inflation-Due to high rate of inflation,real income of people had tended to erode and the wedge between rich and poor has tended to swell over time.
iii)Unemployment crisis-While more and more employment opportunities have been generated,challenge of unemployment had not subsided.This has emerged as a serious cause of social unrest as well.
iv)Deficient Infrastructure-Development of infrastructure continues to be inadequate despite many years of planning.
