The fifth anniversary of ‘Paathai, Payanam, Paarvai’ was celebrated by Swadeshi Jagran Manch on 17th July 2011.

S.Gurumurthy, national co-convenor of the SJM, Dr. M S Shiva Prasad, Councillor, Aramanenagar Ward, Malleshwaram, besides several others. Sri Gopal Srinivasan said the India’s economic growth in the next two decades will be driven by small and medium enterprises. ‘Currently, our GDP is $1.5trillion. In 2025, it will grow by six times. The gap between the present and future will be filled by small and medium enterprises.’
In his address, Gurumurthy traced the spirited fight of Indian multi-national Tata to break stereotypes and said that Indian enterprises lacked the requisite resources to be successful in a globalised era. A multitude of small businesses in the country like the ones in Rajkot and Ludhiana had proved that they could be highly successful despite challenges. The personal savings of the Indian families continued to be a significant strength of the Indian economy, he added. ‘An estimate says that India would need $1.7 trillion for developing infrastructure. However, we will not need even a single dollar from outside, as the country’s savings is more than sufficient to fund this initiative, he added.
