The GBS in the tenth Plan was around 7% of GDP. Estimates by experts within the Left front (if one, however wrongly or correctly, were to assume they are most pro equitable development) suggests that the GBS for the Eleventh Plan will have to be increased by at least another 4.75% of GDP in order to ensure a minimum increase of 1% of GDP for agriculture.

Suddenly one is discovering that despite a huge youth force, India just does not have enough institutes of higher learning, which can churn out leaders and managers of international standards. According to Nasscom, India will face a shortage of about 500,000 skilled manpower by 2010!
