UPSC IAS – 2014
The correct option is D. The main objective of the 12th Five-Year Plan (2012-2017) was ‘Faster, Sustainable and More Inclusive Growth’.
The 12th Five-Year Plan was the last of India’s Five-Year Plans. Its central theme and stated objective were “Faster, Sustainable and More Inclusive Growth”. This expands upon the “Inclusive Growth” objective of the 11th Plan by adding the dimensions of speed and sustainability, recognizing the need for not just equity but also environmental considerations and a higher growth rate to achieve development goals.
The 11th Five-Year Plan (2007-2012) had the objective “Towards Faster and More Inclusive Growth”. The 12th Plan built upon this by emphasizing sustainability alongside speed and inclusiveness.
