520 _aThe north-eastern region of India has low per capita income despite a favourable land–man ratio, rich resource endowment, and a high potential for growth and development. The challenges are connectivity, location in a troubled neighbourhood, and fractionalisation and polarisation of its population. An economic road map for the North East should include union government support in close partnership with the states to build physical infrastructure and upgrade connectivity, avoiding fiscal giveaways that fail to trigger self-sustained agglomeration economies, improving law and order, and governance, focusing on high-value, low-volume, local resource-based industries, promoting tourism, and harnessing the region’s hydropower potential. – Reproduced https://www.epw.in/journal/2024/44-45/special-articles/economic-road-map-north-eastern-region.html
