But let me tell you, from my life in Bhilai Steel Plant, that "mixed" often meant the public sector carried the weight. While the plan talked of balance, we were the ones melting ore in 45-degree heat to build that industrial spine. The private shops flourished, but it was our sweat that laid the foundation.
