Abstract

The overall development of a nation depends on the proper utilization of its nat-raasl well as human resources. The opinion of the Planning Commission in the 7^th Five Year Plan (1985-90) may be mentioned in this context: "Human resources development has necessarily to be assigned a key role in any development strategy, particularly in a country with a large population. Trained and educated on sound lines, a large population can itself become an asset in accelerating economic growth and in ensuring social change in desired directions. Education develops basic skills and abilities and fosters a value system conducive to, and in support of national development goals both long term and immediate."
