Joint Sector: Guidelines for Policy Samuel Paul S K Bhattacharyya S C Kuchhal This paper argues that the joint sector needs to be encouraged because of the significant role it can play in the social control of private industry, in the promotion of industrial growth, in the mobilisation of resources, and in broad-basing of entrepreneur ship. Indeed, joint sector enterprises may be permitted in all industries which are not reserved exclusively for the State or the small-scale sector, and the sector can be defined without modifying the Industrial Policy Resolution of 1956.
