KNYGA B. Misra Revisiting Regional Growth Dynamics in India in the Post Economic Reforms Period

Revisiting Regional Growth Dynamics in India in the Post Economic Reforms Period analyses the state level performance in three sub periods 2000-03, 2004-08 and 2009-12 by broadly corresponding to low growth, high growth and the post crisis phase respectively. The book discusses the game changer initiatives that put India into a higher and sustainable growth trajectory. The author highlights the key challenges to inclusive growth in a federal set up and suggests the way ahead. Apart from growth, the book examines the issue of regional inequality. It develops a consistent index for infrastructure facilities, by encompassing the social and economic dimension for Indian states and analyses the growth. The book analyses the importance of credit and health from a growth perspective by adopting a blend of analytical rigour and econometric techniques to understand India's growth process. This book is a sequel to Regional Growth Dynamics in India in the Post Economic Reform period (Palgrave Macmillan, 2007).
