Will  the  Minister  of  STATISTICS  AND  PROGRAMME IMPLEMENTATION be pleased to state:

- (b) the urban and rural per capita income differentials in the country during each of the last three years and the current financial year; and
- (c) the  steps  taken  or  being  taken  by  the  Government  to  bridge  the  gap during the current Five Year Plan?

## ANSWER

## MINISTER OF STATISTICS AND PROGRAMME IMPLEMENTATION (SHRI D. V. SADANANDA GOWDA)

- (a) State  level  estimates  of  Per  Capita  Income  (measured  as  Per  Capita Net State Domestic Product) are compiled by concerned State Governments.  The  estimates  available  for  the  latest  three  years  are given at Annexure I.
- (b) The per capita income of the States is not compiled separately for rural and urban areas.
- (c) The  Government  has  taken  several  measures  to  improve  the  growth performance of all the States in a balanced manner. Some of the policy initiatives in this direction include: transfer of resources from Centre to States  favouring  less  developed  States;  incentives  for  setting  up  of industries in the backward regions; etc. The enhanced share of States in Central taxes from 32 per cent to 42 per cent provides flexibility to the  States  for  designing  and  financing  schemes  suited  to  the  local needs and to bridge the development gaps in the backward regions of

the  States  through  the  framework  of  co-operative  and  competitive federalism.  In  addition,  several  Centrally  Sponsored  Schemes  and State-specific schemes are being implemented which are expected to improve the per capita income of different States.
