It is indeed a proud privilege and honour for me to participate in this 54th NDC meeting. This meeting has been convened essentially to consider and approve the Draft 11th Five Year Plan (2007-2012).

However, I would like to share our views on some of the important issues and recommendations highlighted in the agenda. 2) Let me start with reiterating what our Hon’ble Prime Minister has stated in his Independence Day address on 15th August 2005. “ in this new phase of development, we are acutely aware that all regions of the country should develop at the same pace. It is unacceptable for us to see any region of the country left behind other regions in this quest for development.
