The highlights of the achievements of this Ministry.

Major shift in the procedure for release of grants has been made. Grants are now released for specific infrastructure and other projects after discussion with the State Governments to achieve better targeting of the expenditure. 100 Residential Schools proposed to be set up during the 9th Plan period by utilising part of the allocation for grant-in-aid under art. 275(1) of the Constitution, to improve the quality of education being imparted to tribal students. 75 Residential Schools have already been sanctioned, out of which 12 schools are already under operation.

Answer 2

The Planning Commission has explored two alternative targets for economic growth in the Twelfth

Plan. The first is a restatement of the Eleventh Plan target of 9.0 per cent growth, which has yet to be

achieved. The second is an even higher target of 9.5 per cent average growth for the Twelfth Five Year

Plan. Several macro-economic models have been used to examine the feasibility of these targets in terms

of internal consistencies and inter-sectoral balances. The detailed results obtained from these models will

be published separately. In this section, we present a tentative assessment of the implications of these two

alternative growth targets.

2.12 The sectoral growth rates broadly consistent with the 9.0 per cent and 9.5 per cent alternatives are

presented in Table 2.1. The 9.0 per cent target requires a significant acceleration in growth in agriculture;

in electricity, gas and water supply; and also in manufacturing. Agricultural growth has always been an

important component for inclusiveness in India, and recent experience suggests that high GDP growth

without such agricultural growth is likely to lead to accelerating inflation in the country, which would

jeopardise the larger growth process. However, even if such agricultural growth is achieved, it is unlikely

that the agricultural sector will absorb additional workers. Thus, the main onus for providing additional

jobs to the growing labour force will rest on manufacturing and construction and on the services sectors.

The target set for the mining sector, mainly reflecting additional production of coal and natural gas, is also

very demanding, but is necessary to meet the primary energy requirements without resorting to excessive

imports.

Nanning has been cashing in on its geographical position to better integrate all aspects of its development and has had some positive results.

During the 11th Five-Year Plan (2006-2010), it had an average annual GDP increase of 15.5 percent.

At the end of 2010, its GDP was 180.43 billion yuan ($27.85 billion), or 2.5 times the 2005 figure, and accounting for 18.95 percent of the Guangxi region's total.

Nanning had investment worth 422.8 billion yuan in the past five years, or 3.9 times the figure under the 10th Five-Year Plan (2001-2005)

During that same five-year period, city revenues exceeded 30 billion yuan, or three times the 2005 figure, with an average annual increase of 24.59 percent.

Last year, the city's gross industrial output was 150 billion yuan.
