Shastri was the country's Prime Minister from 1964-1966. During Shastri's brief Prime Ministership, the country faced two major challenges. While India was still recovering from the economic implications of the war with China, failed monsoons, drought and serious food crisis presented a grave challenge.

As in the USSR, the planning commission of India opted for Five Year Plans (FYP). The idea is very simple the government of India prepares a document that has a plan for all its income and expenditure for the next five years. Accordingly the budget of the central and all the state governments is divided into two parts 'non-plan' budget that is spent on routine items on a yearly basis and 'plan' budget that is spent on a five year basis as per the priorities fixed by the plan. A five year plan has the advantage of permitting the government to focus on the larger picture and make long term intervention in the economy.
