The editors, in summarizing the views of all stakeholders such as bureaucrats, industry leaders and OEMs have outlined areas of common grounds and the methodology to achieve synergy of thoughts. The book is a one of its kind in existence and will serve as a guide to the policy needs of the future irrespective of what finally goes into the policy.

The next such seminar will be held in Nov 2015 and will provide a useful critique on the DPP 2015 which shall be released by then.
