Eliminating Poverty in Bihar

Paradoxes, Bottlenecks and Solutions

A close examination of Bihar's recent growth experience reveals several paradoxes. These are paradoxes only with reference to certain orthodox positions widely held in development economics. Resolving these paradoxes helps formulate a more incisive understanding of what bottlenecks lie in the way of eliminating poverty in Bihar and opens the way for working out solutions to the problem.

This article is based on a paper prepared at the request of the Government of Bihar. Many thanks to Pramathesh Ambasta, Syed Gulrez Hoda and P S Vijay Shankar for their inputs.
