| description |
Punjab, Haryana, Uttar Pradesh,
Bihar, Jharkhand, and West Bengal, with their high
concentration of population, agricultural productivity, and
growing manufacturing activities are economically important
for India. The construction of the corridor has the
potential to increase inter-state connectivity as well as
regional linkages with Bangladesh, Pakistan, and the port of
Mumbai, which can in turn spur economic activity and
regional integration. The purpose of this report is to
provide an overview of demographic trends, human development
indicators, and economic structure in the six states, as a
preliminary repository of data and analysis. This report is
intended to help identify detailed technical assistance,
better inform policy priorities, and well-targeted
investment decisions that leverage planned and ongoing
infrastructure projects such as the corridor. The report is
structured as follows: (1) introduction; (2) overview of the
six corridor states encompassing urbanization, poverty,
human development performance, and economic profiles; (3)
state-level overview of demographic and economic development
performance, disaggregated economic structure, and commodity
movements; and (4) conclusion. |
