All the Five-Year Plans in India were not given equal importance primarily due to the limitation of resources. India, being a developing country, had finite financial, human, and natural resources, which affected the scale and focus of each plan. Some plans prioritized heavy industries, while others focused on agriculture or social sectors, depending on the availability of funds and infrastructure. Additionally, external factors like wars, economic crises, and policy shifts influenced resource allocation, making it impossible to treat all plans with the same level of emphasis.
