PURCHASE MANAGEMENT IN STATE ROAD TRANSPORT CORPORATION IN INDIA

Apart from the executive, social and cultural, benefits of a decent and efficient system of transport, it's now recognized that an efficient transport system could be a key consider the economic development of an under developed country. It’s of course a precondition for strengthening economy. Within the absence of excellent roadways, railways, waterways and airways, a backward country will forever remain confined to the shell of its stagnant economy. The contribution made by road transport to employment is incredibly substantial. It’s said that every transport vehicle on the road provides jobs for eleven persons. We’ve got an ambitious programme at industrial development. But such a programme can only be distributed with the assistance of road transport. Otherwise the raw materials might not reach the factories and also the manufactured goods might not reach the markets. Both production and distributions are to a greater extent obsessed with the supply of road transport facility. Road transport is indispensable for agriculture development too. The agriculturists won't be ready to pay proper remuneration required for his labour and also his investment of capital are blocked unless the markets for agricultural produce are made easily accessible. This can be only possible when good roads connect the villages with market centers in order that wastages of agricultural product are going to be eliminated. Road transport not only moves goods to assist industry, but also transport human resources. Buses and trucks are the sole type of the transport means, which might be used for the daily movement of enormous number of individuals from places around new industrial cities. Thus road transport mobilizes materials furthermore as human resources.
