Of late, Rural Economy has received renewed emphasis by the planners in India and upliftment and rejuvenation of agrarian economy are of paramount importance for our country, since the reforms were undertaken. Inclusive Growth has received utmost importance in the Eleventh Plan, and planners, policy makers and academicia are exploring avenues to include poor, downtrodden, marginalized and neglected sections of our society in its march towards economic progress. This anthology has been compiled from the papers received t the time of UGC sponsored National Seminar on High Growth Trajectory and the State of Rural Economy in India.

The present book makes an important contribution towards recommending means to lift our rural economy and also gives light to the concept of inclusive growth and holistic development.
