No, I do not agree with the statement. 

  • Even though the Tenth Five Year Plan could achieve certain targets like increase in growth rate, savings, investment, FDI, 
  • exports, etc. it has certain failures also. 

They are: 

  • Agricultural production could increase only by 25% as against the target of 4%. 
  • Due to the use of capital-intensive technology in production unemployment increased. 
  • Regional imbalances and poverty between states could not be curbed down. 
  • The private sector was given more importance.
