Abstract

This 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.
