In
recent years, the ‘official’ India has been patting
itself on account of accelerated economic growth rates
and the presumed progress in poverty reduction. However,
as this paper argues, the recent economic growth has
been extremely lopsided; more than ever before. Further,
large sections of the country’s population continue
to suffer, very acutely, with reference to a whole range
of development deficits. This paper is an attempt to
sketch a snapshot of India’s economic growth performance,
along with some of the major development deficits it
is facing. |
