Everyone plans their day, for instance, what time to wake up, what to have in breakfast, how many tasks will we achieve on this day, etc,. So, the plan is our today’s topic of discussion.
A plan spells out how the resources of a nation should be put to use. It should have some general goals as well as specific objectives that are to be achieved within a specified period.
