Abstract: Historically, public sector assume significant importance to India's economy, in both pre-and post-independence period. In the pre-independence era, the public sector was confined primarily to select sectors including railways, posts and telegraphs, port trust, ordnance factories, etc. The development of public sector enterprises was identified as a key driver for self-reliant economic growth in the absence of significant private capital. With the onset of economic reforms in 1991, the Government initiated a systemic shift to a more open economy with greater reliance on market forces and a larger role of the private sector including foreign investment. Public sector has played a dominant role in generating employment in India. There are two important categories of public sector employment: (a) Government administration and defence and other government services like health, education, research and various activities to promote economic development; and (b) public sector proper. Compared to the private sector employment, there was rapid growth of employment in the public sector during the period 1961- 81, a relative slow down during 1981-91, and a declining trend since 1991.
