The subject of inclusive growth has been in the spotlight recently, for very obvious reasons. The parliamentary election campaign of 2004, with its 'India Shining' vs. 'Aam Aadmi' confrontation, highlighted an apparently widespread perception that the benefits of economic growth were simply passing too many people by. Of course, that campaign was fought after only one year of 8 per cent plus GDP growth, which came after a relatively sluggish period between 1998 and 2003. But, notwithstanding several other factors that may have influenced the outcome of the elections, the assessment that a widespread feeling of exclusion contributed to it has shaped the rhetoric and the broad policy orientation of the United Progressive Alliance government.This orientation is most visibly manifested in the theme of the Eleventh Five-Year Plan, which runs from 2007 to 2012.

Inclusive growth means the growth or progress of a country in such a way that every citizen by and large benefits from the growth.

Exclusive growth is where you leave a sizable lot of population deprived of the fruits of the growth.

Inclusive growth as the literal meaning of the two words refers to both the pace and the pattern of the economic growth. The literature on the subject draws fine distinction between direct income redistribution or shared growth and inclusive growth. The inclusive growth approach takes a longer term perspective as the focus is on productive employment rather than on direct income redistribution, as a means of increasing incomes for excluded groups. Inclusive growth is, therefore, supposed to be inherently sustainable as distinct from income distribution schemes which can in the short run reduce the disparities, between the poorest and the rest, which may have arisen on account of policies intended to jumpstart growth. While income distribution schemes can allow people, to benefit from economic growth in the short run, inclusive growth allows people to “contribute to and benefit from economic growth”.

in short

Inclusive growth means the growth or progress of a country in such a way that every citizen by and large benefits from the growth.

Exclusive growth is where you leave a sizable lot of population deprived of the fruits of the growth.

Inclusive growth refers to growth wherein the benefits of economic growth is not restricted to the prospering of the elite few but also something which trickles down to the lower segment of the society.we can see how our gdp is averaging at more than 8-9% p.a every year but still poverty is diminishing at a very slow pace.just some of the examples of exclusive growth would be maharashtra where you could see real estate prices hitting the roof because of huge demand for luxury housing and at the same time we can see that the biggest slum in asia(dharavi) is also present there..
