ET Awards' Agenda For Renewal 2011: Six stalwarts of India Inc craft agenda

For a document that undisputedly chiselled the first contours of India's post-independence economy, the Bombay Plan of 1944-45 went surprisingly unacknowledged. Jawaharlal Nehru never officially accepted the Plan even though the first Five Year Plan was remarkably similar to it.
Sixty seven years later, six stalwarts of India Inc have crafted the Agenda For Renewal at the invitation of the The Economic Times. This may not be as seminal as the Bombay Plan, but it will be acknowledged - by the Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee on November 26 at the The Economic Times Awards for Corporate Excellence, and by three of his cabinet colleagues.
In the coming days, ET will orchestrate a national campaign around the Agenda For Renewal. This, we hope, will help the nation regain the sense of purpose and intent that has grown dull recently. Presented below are edited excerpts of the deliberations between ET and the six CEOs that eventually formed the basis on which this agenda was crafted.
How the campaign for renewal will unfold...
Six business leaders, Deepak Parekh, chairman of HDFC, KV Kamath, chairman, ICICI Bank and Infosys, Ashok Ganguly, former chairman of Hindustan Unilever, Sunil Bharti Mittal, chairman, Bharti Enterprises, Zia Mody, legal firm AZB Partners, NR Narayana Murthy, founder Infosys Technologies, crafted the Agenda For Renewal at ET's invitation.
This will be presented to Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee on Saturday, November 26 at the The Economic Times Awards for Corporate Excellence. Mukherjee and three cabinet ministers, Jairam Ramesh, minister for rural development, Kapil Sibal, minister for communications, and Salman Khurshid, minister for law and justice, will discuss this agenda with 400 CEOs who will be present at the ET Awards.
In the coming days, leaders from political parties, businessmen, leading civil society voices and academicians will also discuss and debate the agenda in the pages of The Economic Times.
