Turn Around India -Thru Inclusive Governance & Team
Spirit . By
R. P. Gupta, 2013. Writing is not new to Mr. R.P. Gupta. He has several
articles to his credit in different magazines of repute. But this endeavour
of his is unique in many ways. He has boldly accepted to face hard
realities of life and mustered courage to diligently bell the proverbial
cat in a very dignified style by writing this book.He is fairly optimistic
that there is still ample scope to bring the Indian economy on the fast
track. All that is needed is awareness and commitment among the people and
positive attitude and team spirit in the government. The book has also
stressed on the proactive role of the politicians, bureaucracy and media to
realise our economic objectives. Both as a qualified entrepreneur and a
person with long and varied experience, he has touched upon practically
every facet of the Indian economy. In his lucid style, he has not only
discussed the intrinsic problems but still more important suggested simple
and viable solutions for charting a growth map.The Indian economy has
traversed through many trials and tribulations and has weathered many
vicissitudes on its way. Interestingly, it has mostly re-emerged as vibrant
and forward looking. At this critical juncture one vital aspect we need to
ponder is- mostly we are in the habit of focusing on despondency rather
than on the robust and positive attributes of our system. The media is also
no better on this count. In fact, the mass media can play a pivotal role in
transferring vital information from the population to the planners thereby
creating a conducive environment for facilitating economic activities in a
fair and effective manner. Today, feedback has been recognised not only as
helpful but also as indispensable in the developmental process.Its time we
change our mind set and highlight on our progress and achievements. India
is admired world over for their professional prowess and acumen. Then why
cant they contribute here-in their own country! We have everything we need
for our growth, human talent and natural resources in abundance. I feel, we
are not able to meet our growth plans primarily for two reasons, want of
commitment and lack of belongingness for motherland India.Another area of
major concern is the hype of mega scams and rampant corruption that has
rocked our country. This is not only retarding our growth and development
but also tarnishing our image both in the country and beyond the borders. Rs. 340
