It was felt to examine the development challenges of each state in light of the state-specific opportunities, constraints and resources. The basic idea has been to produce a quality reference document on development profiles of individual states and devising appropriate strategy for accelerated development. The Madhya Pradesh State Development Report reviews Madhya Pradesh’s development experience and highlights critical inputs for the state’s development in the years ahead. I hope this publication will stimulate debate on growth strategies appropriated for Madhya Pradesh. I am also sure the roadmap indicated in the Report will stimulate a broader awareness of the critical policy issues facing the state, and would enable the state to move to a higher growth path, securing welfare for all its citizens.

Blessed with vast natural resources and comparatively peaceful environment, the state still faces formidable challenge of removing historical constraints of development. We have taken great strides in improving the infrastructure including roads, power and irrigation in the last few years. However, great deal of efforts are still required to bring the state at par with the other developed states. The recent initiatives to empower women and girl child have been appreciated across the country. Ladli Laxmi Yojana and Deendayal Antyodaya Upchar Yojana have been hailed at the national level. The state has done very well in terms of implementation of Centrally Sponsored Schemes including flagship programmes and Bharat Nirman Schemes. Meticulous fiscal management has given a thrust to the state economy. I am happy to learn that the Planning Commission of India is bringing out the “State Development Report” for Madhya Pradesh. We have embarked upon an ambitious goal of placing Madhya Pradesh in the category of leading states in terms of development. I am sure that the State Development Report will not only capture the trends of various sectors of development, but also will help us in designing and strategising the future initiatives for faster development.
