the essence of DA is holistic change undertaken through

integrated,organized and prooperly directed govt.

coined by U.L GOWSWAMI

ramesh k arora:impression that D.A is concerned solely with the
admin of developing countries can only reduce the utility of the
concept of DA in its application to the comarative analysis of
developed and developin countries
