Solution
Role of State in Economic Development:
- The provision of economic infrastructure is mainly the government's responsibility, which is essential for economic development.
- Capital formation is an essential condition for economic development. The state can use its fiscal and monetary policy to generate resources for capital formation. In our country, public sector investment in industries and expenditure on infrastructure has led to huge capital formation.
- Basic and heavy goods industries require huge investment and have a long gestation period. The private sector is reluctant to invest in the development of these industries, but our government has established such industries.
- Economic development in India would be incomplete without agricultural development. The government can promote agricultural development by providing various facilities and incentives to the agricultural sector.
