Title Development Profile of Himachal Pradesh
 
Creator Bhatnagar, R. S.
 
Subject 330.9 Economic Situation and Conditions
 
Description The Himalayan region, traditionally an abode of Gods, has been nestling in its laps the great centres of meditation, learning and research from the heydays of lndian golden age. But for centuries before the Himachal Pradesh came into being it had seen dire neglect and deep frustration. At the time of its formation some of the hill resorts were connected with rail/roads and these were provided with amenities like electricity, water supply, drainage etc. but the hills in general remained in a state of squalor. The, backlog of underdevelopment had piled up with the passage of time and bill areas were considered as source of supply of cheap unskilled labourers and mute domestic servants. Thus the hills were plague spots in the country so far as development was considered.
