Lack of competence and unethical practices

Under the Nehruvian model of development all regions of the country have not benefited equally in terms of development and modernization. Some states like Gujarat and Punjab have advanced; others like Bihar and Orissa are lagging behind. Moreover, within both advanced and backward states there is huge diversity in terms of development. Thus a need was felt to identify the backward states and regions and evolve plans for their development. For the first time, for development planning, the Planning Commission has divided all the states of India into two categories:

• Clarity about the comprehensive human goal: Samadhana-Samriddhi-Abhaya-Sah-astitva and its fulfillment through universal human order from family to world family. Mizoram, Nagaland, Sikkim and Tripura)

• Confidence in oneself as well as confidence in the harmony, co-existence and self-regulation prevailing in entire existence based on the right understanding of oneself and the rest of existence.

• Competence of mutually fulfilling behavior, clarity and confidence in ethical human conduct and its correlation with sustainable personal as well as collective happiness and prosperity.

• Competence of mutually enriching interaction with nature, ability to assess the needs for physical facilities for the family and their fulfillment through production systems ensuring harmony in the nature.

• Competence of actualizing one’s understanding in real life.
