Research Abstract |
This study examined recent socio-economic development and future prospect in Uttrakhand and Himachal Pradesh, which are typical underdeveloped states in India. These regions have accomplished the rapid economic growth mainly based on industrialization and tourism development after the economic liberalization. As for the industrial development, industrial policies of the central government for northern mountain states plays a crucial role, though its effects are limited to plain areas. On the other hand, mountainous areas have attracted tourism industries which employment is not sufficient. We should pay attention to increasing internal disparities in the states.
