Inter-State Imbalances in Essential Services: Some Perspectives
Published By: MSE on eSS | Published Date: January, 14 , 2009This paper analyzes the inter-state imbalances in three major sectors of
the economy, namely, education, health and family welfare, and water
supply and sanitation for fifteen major states. It uses two principal
indicators namely the per capita GSDP (reflecting the disparity in fiscal
capacity in various states) and per capita government expenditures on
priority sectors, reflecting how fiscal capacities are translated into
differences in government fiscal intervention in providing services. [Working paper No. 42/2009]. URL:[http://www.mse.ac.in/pub/working%20paper%2042.pdf].
