What is a perspective plan?

Solution

A plan spells out how the resources of a nation should be put to use. A plan should have some general goals as well as specific objectives which are to be achieved within a specified period oftime. In India, plans are of five years duration and are called five-year plans. Our plan documents not only specify the objectives to be attained in the five years of a plan but also what is to be achieved over a period of twenty years. This long term plan is called perspective plan. The five-year plans are supposed to provide the basis for the perspective plan.
