Answer 2

Industrial Policy Resolution of 1956 (IPR 1956) is a resolution adopted by the Indian Parliament in April 1956. It was the second comprehensive statement on industrial development of India after the Industrial Policy of 1948. The 1956 policy continued to constitute the basic economic policy for a long time. This fact has been confirmed in all the Five-Year Plans of India. According to this resolution the objective of the social and economic policy in India was the establishment of a socialistic pattern of society. It provided more powers to the governmental machinery. It laid down three categories of industries which were more sharply defined. These categories were:

Schedule A: those industries which were to be an exclusive responsibility of the state.
Schedule B: those which were to be progressively state-owned and in which the state would generally set up new enterprises, but in which private enterprise would be expected only to supplement the effort of the state.

Schedule C: all the remaining industries and their future development would, in general be left to the initiative and enterprise of the private sector.
