Résumé : | This report analyzes India's recent economic performance and considers the key issues in agriculture, manufacturing, energy and power, and health and education. The report finds that judicious government policy has helped the economy to withstand the impact of the major 1987 drought. Export growth has improved, reducing the balance of payments impact of the drought. Some improvements were made in government finances but the deficit remains high. The mid-term appraisal of the Seventh Plan suggests the need for at least the 5% growth targeted in this plan, in order to provide a satisfactory increase in per capita income, absorb the growing labor force productively and reduce poverty. A number of key issues specific to each sector are discussed but two common themes emerge: the need for greater efficiency in the light of possible resource constraints and the already high investment rate; and the possibility of encouraging efficiency through incentives. Finally the report analyzes India's prospects and suggests that continued export growth will be needed, along with significant increases in concessional assistance to support high rates of growth and reduce poverty within the context of balance of payments equilibrium. |
