Solution
Factors like illiteracy and poverty affect regional development because:
- Literacy improves the quality of human resources by increasing skills, employment opportunities, and awareness, which helps in regional development.
- Illiteracy reduces productivity and limits the use of available resources.
- Poverty lowers the standard of living and reduces people’s ability to access education, healthcare, and basic facilities.
- Poor regions often lack infrastructure and investment, which slows down their development.
Therefore, illiteracy and poverty create obstacles to regional development.
