Acknowledgements

We are thankful to all the Workshop participants for their valuable comments and observations made during the course of presentation and discussion of various papers. Our special gratitude is to the Workshop Chairmen, discussants rapporteurs and speakers without whose benign co-operation it would have been difficult to conduct the workshop so smoothly and systematically. We have liberally drawn upon the discussants’ remarks and notes and rapporteurs’ reports in the preparation of this report but we alone are responsible for any errors of interpretation, omission and commission that still remain in the report.

For liberal financial support for conducting the case-studies presented at the Workshop as well as for organising the Workshop we are thankful to the Ford Foundation (India), New Delhi. Last but not the least, we are grateful to Prof. Tushaar Shah, Director, IRMA for the encouragement, advice, facilities and freedom provided to us in planning and conducting the Workshop.
