The present volume is primarily designed to fill that long-standing gap. The period 1849-1947 has been treated systematically in detail. The entire period has been divided in three volumes and every aspect of the period has been ex­ plored documented. The learned historian Dr. Shri Ram Sharma has observed in his forword that it can easily be recommended for refe­ rence and even for study to students of history of the Punjab under the British Rs. 100 Each Vol BY THE SAME AUTHOR 1.

Price: Rs 600 Cover Design Planning Department, Government of Himachal Pradesh, Shimla 171002 Layout, design and typesetting by Astricks, New Delhi 110070, www.astricks.com Printed by The Himachal Pradesh Government Press, Shimla 171005 Foreword Human Development is a continuous process known to enrich human resources in terms of enlarging people's choices which, in turn, is instrumental in enabling human resources mobilizing and allocating all other resources prudently so as to ensure development on sustainable basis. Himachal Pradesh Human Development Report takes into account only the aspects related' to income, education and health, though the process of human development encompasses several other critical areas and consumes many more inputs related to various aspects of human life apart from the mentioned ones. This report is the first step in institutionalising this process and brings to fore the strengths and weaknesses of human development effort in Himachal Pradesh. I am sure that subsequent reports would attempt other aspects of human development to make the concept more comprehensive. The report highlights the much talked about achievements the State has made especially in the fields of education, health and infrastructure-physical and social. The report is an attempt in stock-taking the factors responsible for these achievements made given the odds in terms of geo- morphological and financial constraints.
