Answers
Answer:
The Government of India set out in their
Resolution dated 6 April, 1948 the policy which
they proposed to pursue in the industrial field. The
Resolution emphasised the importance to the
economy of securing a continuous increase in
production and its equitable distribution, and pointed
out that the State must play of progressively active
role in the development of Industries. It laid down
that besides arms and ammunition, atomic energy
and railway transport, which would be the monopoly
of the Central Government, the State would be
exclusively responsible for the establishment of
new undertakings in six basic industries-except
where, in the national interest, the State itself found
it necessary to secure the cooperation of private
enterprise. The rest of the industrial field was left
open to private enterprise though it was made clear
that the State would also progressively participate
in this field.
2. Eight years have passed since this declaration
on industrial policy. These eight years have
witnessed many important changes and
developments in India. The constitution of India
has been enacted, guaranteeing certain Fundamental
Rights and enunciating Directive Principles of State
Policy. Planning has proceeded on an organised
basis, and the First Five Year Plan has recently been
completed. Parliament has accepted the socialist
pattern of society as the objective of social and
economic policy. These important developments
necessitate a fresh statement of industrial policy,
more particularly as the Second Five Year Plan will
soon be placed before the country. This policy must
be governed by the principles laid down in the
Constitution, the objective of socialism, and the
experience gained during these years.
3. The Constitution of India, in its preamble, has
declared that it aims at securing for all its citizens:
“ JUSTICE, Social, economic and political;
LIBERTY of thought, expression, belief, faith and
worship;
EQUALITY of status and opportunity; and to
promote among them all;
FRATERNITY assuring the dignity of the individual
and the unity of the Nation”.
In its Directive Principles of State Policy, it is
stated that-
“The State shall strive to promote the welfare
of the people by securing and protecting as
effectively as it may a social order in which
justice, social economic and political, shall
inform all the institutions of the national life.”
Further that-
“The State shall, in particular, direct its policy
towards securing-
(a) that the citizens, men and women equally,
have the right to an adequate means of
livelihood;
(b) that the ownership and control of the
material resources of the community are
so distributed as best to subserve the
common good;
(c) that the operation of economic system does
not result in the concentration of wealth
and means of production to the common
detriment;
(d) that there is equal pay for equal work for
both men and women;
(e) that the health and strength of workers,
men and women, the tender age of children
are not abused and that citizens are not
forced by economic necessity to enter
vocations unsuited to their age or strength;
(f) that childhood and youth are protected
against exploitation and against moral and
material abandonment.”
4. These basic and general principles were given
a more precise direction when Parliament accepted
in December, 1954, the socialistic pattern of society
as the objective of social and economic policy.
Industrial policy, as other policies, must therefore,
be governed by these principles and directions
5. In order to realise this objective, it is essential
to accelerate the rate of economic growth and to
speed up industrialisation and, in particular, to
develop heavy industries and machine making
industries, to expand the public sector, and to build
up a large and growing cooperative sector.
