About the Book

Efficient rural infrastructure is essential for accelerating the pace of rural development. No doubt, imbalances in rural infrastructural availability have been a major reason behind lopsided development in rural India. This book evaluates the veracity of this argument in the context of Indian states. The book provides nature, pattern and magnitude of inter-state disparities in rural infrastructure and rural development. It also analyses inter-district disparities in rural infrastructure facilities and rural development in Himachal Pradesh using a multidimensional approach with subsectoral, sectoral and composite indices of rural development and infrastructural availability. The empirical evidence of rural infrastructure development in Himachal Pradesh is enormously vital for comparable Indian states. An appropriate strategy is considered necessary for the creation of effectual rural infrastructural base in the rural areas so as to accomplish the ambition of sustainable rural development in India. It is hoped that this book will be of direct interest and use to academics, development planners and policy makers.
