Regional Analysis of Socioeconomic conditions in different states of india

As stated by Hirschman and Rothschild : “In the early stages of rapid economic development, when inequalities in the distribution of income among different classes, sectors and regions are apt to increase sharply, it can happen that society’s tolerance for such disparities will be substantial. To the extent that such tolerance comes into being, it accommodates, as it were, the increasing in- equalities in an almost providential fashion. But this tolerance is like a credit that falls due at a certain date. It is extended in the expectation that eventually the disparities will narrow again. If this,does not oc- cur, there is bound to be trouble and, perhaps, disaster “ (Hirschman and Rothschild, 1973, P 545). The benefits of growth were cornered by a small influential section of society with patronage from the polity as India progressed from an underdeveloped to a developing nation, and the challenge of disseminating the benefits of growth with distributive justice grew amidst widening horizontal and vertical distribution. Thus for achieving inclusive growth and development in India its important to develop the backward states of India such as Uttar Pradesh ,Bihar and Jharkhand where the economic growth is very less.There is a need for planning at localized level for literacy.There can be witnessed a link between economic ,demographic and social aspects of the States . The states of North East have the best development indicators the traditions have shown to bridge the Gender Gap in Nagaland as well as Assam.Thus first priorties should be fulfilment of basic physiological needs such as food water etc as in all these three states Uttar Pradesh,Bihar and Jharkhand poverty indicators show extreme poverty in these states .Social indicators are poor too in these states.A comprehensive approach needs to be adopted which can taken into account these geographical differences across the regions.This can be achieved by acknowledging the differences across the regions and states and providing region specific measures for improvement in Development Indicators.
