Industry lobby CII Sunday released a ‘Suggested Election Manifesto’ for political parties to achieve an average growth rate of 8 per cent per annum in the next five years. The manifesto by the CII provides an economic roadmap for the upcoming government, the industry body said in a release. India faces its next general election by May as the incumbent government is nearing completion of the five-year term. It covers a range of subjects including agriculture, education, health, infrastructure, manufacturing, technology as well as environment.
“After extensive discussion with industry members and experts from various fields, we have evolved key suggestions to make an India of economic strength, technological vitality and moral leadership towards India@75 in 2022. We believe that political parties will consider these suggestions and include them in their manifesto,” said Chandrajit Banerjee, Director General at the CII.
