Strategies to reduce regional imbalance
Short Note
Solution
- In India, many policies have been considered and implemented to reduce this regional imbalance.
- Regions which were not developed were initially identified.
- The reasons behind non- development are also identified like physical, social or economic reasons.
- Different types of criteria are considered for identifying such areas.
- Funds are allocated to those regions which need them in particular sectors or fields.
- Sector wise investments are then done to improve the conditions in these areas.
- Such funds are given in the form of subsidies, and investments in roads, schools, agriculture, irrigation, industries, housing, medical and health facilities, etc.
- Special care is taken for regions which have been identified as drought-prone, deserts, hilly and tribal-dominated areas.
