Bihar also has huge amount of water while Maharashtra sees drought every year. But you cannot compare gold with other resources as Gold is a monetary asset and is important from any countries financial stability perspective.

If you are specifically talking about Bihar then that state has the potential (It was once situated very close to Kolkata which was India's capital) and needs to make better use of it's advantages rather than getting into things that are constitutionally not under their domain.

By your logic Maharashtra would have been the most backward state as it has almost no natural resources, very miniscule water, terrain that is not suitable for farming etc. etc. and yet it is the number one state in the country as it focused on industrialization.

That being said it can be taken over by other states if they play their cards right and Maharashtra goofs up big time over the years (which I believe is happening as we speak).

The biggest Reason behind industrialization of Maharashtra , Gujrat , Tamil Nadu and de industrialization of states like Bihar , Jharkhand , Chhattisgarh , MP , Odisha , Rajasthan was Freight Equalisation Policy which was introduced in 1952 and was continued till 1993

Then most of the people from there will migrate to resource rich areas and that’s how it should be its natural
Natural resources do not cause migration. Opportunity does. Africa has more resources than for example Japan. But given choice person will migrate to Japan because it has more opportunities than Africa. Presence of natural resources is not the key to development. Value addition to those resources is what creates opportunities thus causing migration of people to those areas. IT industry is another example where migration is opportunity driven and not resource driven. People migrate to Bangaluru, Pune because they have maximum opportunities, not to the places where most Engineering colleges are located.

@Chandragupt Maurya i hope you will no longer raise the point about gold and bihar again and again, considering that bihar is neither mining gold ore nor processing gold.

zero gold is coming out of bihar as per govt records.

same logic:

Notice the number of grams of gold per tonne is being extracted. 3.44 gram per tonne.
state where actual gold is being manufactured, and that manufactured gold is being utilised into making high value items like jewellery is what matters.

It's always about where's the state's industry is located in value chain.

That might have helped these states with Manufacturing sector growth but does not explain why they missed the IT boom that was predominantly achieved by inland cities like Bengaluru, Hyderabad, Pune etc. Service Exports are around $200 billion by the way.

Government of India has decided to revive Talcher unit of Fertilizer Corporation of India Ltd


Posted On: 27 JUL 2021 4:02PM by PIB Delhi



Government of India has decided to revive Talcher unit of Fertilizer Corporation of India Ltd (FCIL) by setting up a Ammonia Urea plant of 12.7 Lakh Metric Tonne per annum capacity by forming a Joint venture Company (JV) of nominated PSUs i.e. Gas Authority of India Ltd (GAIL), Rashtriya Chemicals & Fertilizers Ltd (RCF), Coal India ltd (CIL) and FCIL. Accordingly, a JV company named “Talcher Fertilizers Ltd (TFL)” has been incorporated on 03.11.2015.


The direct employment opportunities would be about 510 and indirect employment opportunities would be 4500 (during construction phase) for the Talcher Fertilizer Plant. Besides employment opportunities to the local people, Talcher Fertilizer Plant would boost economic development in the eastern region and would ensure availability of urea to the farmers in the state of Odisha.


This information was given by the Minister of Health & Family Welfare and Chemicals & Fertilizers, Shri Mansukh Mandaviya in a written reply in Lok Sabha today.

huge positive impact, since local consumption is largely not impacted for external factors unless those of global events it ensure the cash keeps circulating domestically keeping the bottom line of the economy intact.

Flip side of the argument: there is less stress on achieving top line, like what’s happening in domestic textile industry at a macro level. they are content with local consumption(100 billion$) so never really focused on exports (30 billion $).
You should start teaching economics for noobs on Dfi . 3 hours per week should be fine.

Oh please stop this nonsense.

South continues to suffer due to a broken system that ends up rewarding states that fail to control their population growth instead of penalizing them.

The system is so biased and broken that by using the 2011 census south ends up in a even worse position because of their effective penalizing methods. TN was the only exception and seems to have gained overall.

Out of an estimated ₹42 trillion worth of taxes to be devolved over the five years, highly populous states of Uttar Pradesh and Bihar will alone command around 28% share.

Don't act like there is some great injustice being meted out to you.
