The topic is very apt and presentation is thought provoking. The ills of the economy and poor GDP growth can be due to lack of understanding, coordination and cooperation between the cehtre and states. The country has all resources and why around 80% of the population still live with Rs 20 a day when even a bottle of water costs more than Rs 10 is something unimaginable and non digestible.It is time Centre and states cooperate and give a boost to agricultural growth and rural development. Rural infrastructure which inckudes roads, stoartge facilities, transporattion,marketing and quick and easy distribution of agricultural products will improve rural employment,bring down food inflation and decongest urban and metroploitan centres. The restlessness seen among the preople because of acute poverty, corruption, inequality of income distribution, waste of naional resources in the name of subsidy for aam admi etc can be brought down only with genuine efforts on rural development and development alone.
