NETAJI'S ECONOMIC THOUGHTS & IDEAS

a. In his Presidential address at Haripura, in 1938, Subhash Chandra said:

The very first thing which our future National Government will have to do would be to set up a Commission for drawing up a comprehensive plan of reconstruction. This plan will have two parts -- an immediate programme and a long period programme. In drawing up the first part, the immediate objectives which have to be kept in view will be three-fold first, to prepare the country for self sacrifice; secondly, to Unify India; and thirdly, to give scope for local and cultural autonomy.'

b. And further said he:

1. A new industrial system will have to be built up in a place of old one which has collapsed as a result of mass production abroad and alien rule at home.

2. The Planning Commission will have to carefully consider and decide which of the home industries could be revived despite the competition of modern factories and in which sphere large scale production should be encouraged.

3. We should reconcile ourselves to industrialisation and devise means to minimise its evil and at the same time explore the possibilities of reviving cottage industries where there is a possibility of their surviving the inevitable competition of factories.

c. As the Congress President, on 13 May 1938, he convened a conference of the Premiers of the seven Congress-ruled provinces to discuss the procedures of development for the country and the people. A comprehensive resolution was taken on the appointment of an inter-provincial experts committee to collect data for the purpose of national reconstruction and social planning.

d. In July 1938, when Subhash Chandra briefed in detail his thinking on economic policy and planning before the Congress Working Committee, it was resolved that Subhash Chandra would convene a conference of Ministers of Industries and would call for a report of the existing industries in different provinces and the needs and possibilities of new ones.
