In an exclusive, CNBC-TV18 has learnt that the 12th Five-year Plan will be placed before the Cabinet by end of the month and the entire Planning Commission panel is likely to meet by mid-September. According to principal advisor to the Planning Commission Pronob Sen, the first draft of the 12th Plan will be ready by the end of this week.
"The title of the 12th Plan has almost been finalised and most of the chapters have been completed. Out of the 20 chapters, sixteen have been sent to all the ministries for comments. About half of the ministries have sent their feedback, so the chapters are being revised. The deadline was end of last week. Hopefully, comments from the rest of the ministries will come in by the middle of this week and by end of this week, first draft should be released," Pronab Sen said.
