We have to accept at the national level the challenge of making an effective dent on this proDlem. Vve have to adopt, therefore, a ccrrect policy-package in this regard. While seeking this policy on employmeni:, it is important to enquire, at tne outset, as to why our economy rias failed in the past to generate adequate employment, Uruess we can locate the root cause, quest for a solution may again oe misdirected. ii. The root cause of unemployment, in our opinion, was located in ihe past economic strategy itself, it was a strategy which started Dy accepting the unequal distribution of assets, particularly of land in agriculture and capital in industry. Persisting inequality in the ownership of land, for instance, has been admitted in the Mid-Term Appraisal of tho Seventh Plan by the Planning Commission itself. It has been noted, to be specific, that according to the available National Sample Survey data, for the country as a whole, only about 29 per cent of land is under the ownership of small and marginal farmers, i.e., 71 per cent of land is owned by the bigger farmers. As a result, given their interests, there has also been a tendency to adopt a technology which is overiy capitai-oiased with inadequate absorption of labour force in production. This nas Doon tne basic cause behind inaaequate generation of employment in agriculture and in organised industry, and therefore also of inaaequate generation of purci'iasing power of common people. It is important to note that the recent document of the Planning Commission on Employment and Right-to-vVorK also clearly points out tho fact that while the employment content of economic growth has been steadily declining in our economy in recent y 2ars, the slov-v down in the empioymvrm growth and employment potential has been particularly rapid in agriculture and in organised industry. 3. Although theru has been widespread unempicyment (around 5 crores at present according to the estimate in the agenda notes) and inadequate purchasing power of the masses, yet, at the same time, due to adoption cf this overxy capital-biased technology, there has been a selective increase in employment for speciaily educated categories related to this technology (the fact of growth of employment in certain educated categories has also been pointed out in the agenda notes) and also a selective increase in incomes of the upper classes. This erosion in purchasing power of the vast majority of common people coupled with selective income increases of the minority of upper income groups have jistortod entire scenario of industriai growtn in tno ccuniry. On the Dne hand, there has oden a growxn in tno corisbmcr durabi:^s industry to .TJeet the sumptuary aspirations of tfne upper incom,.. groups. On the other hand, t h o r j has been a r e i a i i v e Si.agnai.ic>n >n v a s t num oer of mass consumption goods inousLri^s due to, the faii in purchasing power of the common people.

    MSME-Development Institute Kolkata 2nd Year, Vol: VII, June 2020 Udyami Bangla 2nd Year, Vol: VII, June 2020 2 Udyami Bangla 2nd Year, Vol: VII, June 2020 From the Desk of Director In-Charge: With the advent of Unlocking 1.0, the MSME Sector in India entered in to a new phase of development. The very definition of MSME has been widened in line with the announcements of the huge economic boost up packge by the Hon’ble Finance Minister of India on 13th of May 2020. Now the turnover criteria has been added with the earlier investment criteria. The change will definitely be beneficial for the service sector of the economy, which is the largest contributor to the National GDP, but not getting any substantial help from the Government through different M/o MSME Schemes. Moreover, a larger number of enterprise will come under the umbrella of MSME Sector with the change in definition. This issue of ‘Udyami Bangla’ will largely focus on the change in definition and its possible implications on the economy. I hope this new development will bring shine in the present gloomy economic scenario and help the entire MSME Sector to bounce back to the growth path. Krishnadas Bhattacharjee Content A.

Kaleon 11111111111111111111111111111111 Chapter 3 Research Setting Research in the field of Social Science, it is more or less not possible to know and understand the data and to draw the conclusion more accurately unless a fair understanding of the characteristics of that area and complex nature of human behavior and attitude is being interpreted. Therefore it is a pre-requisite to be familiar with the socio-demographic background of the respondents which helps in understanding their behavioral complex. So this chapter is intended to present a brief description of the area in terms of social, economical and agricultural aspects where the present study has been conducted namely the newly formed 20th district Alipurduar and historical Bankura District of West Bengal. Area of the study The area of investigation of this study is situated in the state of West Bengal located in the eastern part of India. The State of West Bengal in eastern India has a unique social, cultural and ecological background, which influence the living standard and behavioral patterns of the people in many ways. The area of investigation belongs to Kalchini block of the Alipurduar The Ecology of Forest Fringe: Development and Livelihood ISBN: 978-93-85822-27-8 21 Research Setting district and Barjora block of Bankura district.

If found please convey it to the Development and Planning Department, Government of West Bengal Preface The objective of all the interventions is to bring in human development. A district human development report has to basically address the issue of formulation of a strategy, which will accelerate the pace of human development. Therefore, the objective of the present exercise is to build up a developmental path, which will address human development in Bankura. Normally a human development report covers three aspects related to human development— standard of living, health and education. Broadly the same format has been maintained in this exercise. However, a separate chapter has been kept for gender issues. The issue of vulnerability also requires special attention since it is not just the state and level of human development that matters. The capacity of people to cope with unfavourable circumstances and respond to adversity is equally important.
