FICCI CHIEF LAUDS ECONOMIC SURVEY'S SOCIAL SECTOR ACTIVISM; CALLS FOR QUALITY IN SERVICE DELIVERY
NEW DELHI, February 27, 2007. The FICCI President, Mr. Habil Khorakiwala has welcomed the activism of the Economic Survey on the social sector, especially its emphasis on education, health and poverty alleviation. The buoyant note struck by the Survey on sustaining 9% growth over the medium term, he said, was in conformity with the expectation of Indian business of a high-trajectory growth.
In a statement today, Mr. Khorakiwala said the Economic Survey's prognosis that "the country will miss the target for providing basic education to all by 2007" was an honest admission of the enormity of the problem. He emphasized the need for going beyond numbers and zeroing in on the quality of education and health through the public-private partnership model.
While concurring the Survey's thrust on skill formation and vocational training and labour flexibility as important elements for sustainable growth, the FICCI Chief said "the focus should not be on allocation of funds alone. The government needs to think out of the box and come up with innovative steps for improving the quality of service delivery and get more out of every rupee spent on training and re-training of the workforce.
