11th Five Year Plan for HP

Planning Commission Member Syeda Hameed held discussions with state government officers led by Chief Secretary S S Parmar regarding the approach to be adopted by the state for finalising the Eleventh Five Year Plan yesterday.

The state government stressed that the social sector, which had been accorded top priority in earlier plans, should be given a major push for balanced and uniform growth.
