Some people thinks that India is a country of those people who are engaged in service sector and contributing most to the GDP.But,Indian growth story donot heavily dependent on service industry.In service indusrty only approx.20% of the total population is involved.It is true that they are contributing more than 60% to the GDP.But,that 20% is not the real India.In primary or agriculture sector more than 65% of the population is involved.
If we go through the economical history of the developed countries,we can find that economy develops from primary or agriculture sector to secondary or manufacturing sector and then manufacturing to tertiary or service sector.Because,it is logical and good for any economy to shift its agricultural population to manufacturing sector gradually than to agricultural to service sector.Because, service sector needs skills and education.And,the population which is in primary sector,has no skills and good education.
But,India jumps directly from primary to tertiary sector.So, a small section of the society,who inherits affluence and education,went to the service sector.And,they are thinking that they are the most talented and eligible persons on this earth.That's why the difference between the poor and the rich is increasing day-by-day after the so-called liberalisation of the economy.
Matter of the fact is that rarely any personality has shown his or talent or intellectualism.If anybody works in the AC-office from 10 am to 5 pm,he thinks that he is the most laborious person.Then,a farmer or a soldier who feeds or give security to us,donot work anything?
All these things are the matter of opportunity anyone finds in his or her life.If I were born in Gandhi's family,I might also be the future candidate of primeministership.
People have to decide to whom they want to cooperate-20%(rich class ) or 65%(marginalised)?

Definitely the focus should shift from the 20% upper class to the so called 65% marginalized class. the government as well as various development institutions are making efforts for these people. but how adequate or sincere these efforts are is a question that needs to be answered and analysed.we all had a chance during our field work to know what percentage of these efforts really reach to those needy people.
