Eco-Yatra: Traversing the Path of India`s Economic Change from the 1950 to 2010 tells the story of how this
change took place over the last 60 years or so, when in 1952 Jawaharlal Nehru presented the nation with the First
Five Year Plan with an investment plan of just Rs. 2,070 crore (in comparison the Tenth Plan 2002“2007 had an
outlay of Rs. 1,484,131 crore). It sifts through hard economic data, while bringing out the broad trend lines,
without losing sight that economic development also has an underlying human dimension. Thus, at one level, the
book traces the changes that impacted the people at a human level; at another, it takes the reader past the major
milestones on the road to economic change over the last 50 years; not in a bookish way, but as a chronicle of
national and individual aspirations and achievements.
