It indicates the co-existence of<br>comparatively developed and economically backward or depressed regions or states. In spite of various<br>major attempts to reduce regional disparities in the plan documents the regional disparities have<br>continued to exist in India both at state and area level till today which has resulted into discontentment<br>not among the people living in the backward regions or states threatening the national unity and<br>integrity. With the gradual withdrawal of state participation in the process of development as a part of<br>the New Economic Policy (NEP), the regional disparities in India are expected to be widen because the<br>free market forces tend to accelerate regional disparities. Therefore it is appropriate time to assess the<br>levels of development between states /regions of India so as to introduce certain policy measures within<br>the framework of the NEP narrowing the levels of inter-state disparities in economic development.<br>The present paper seeks to measure the levels of development and degree of disparities of infrastructural<br>development between the states of North East India based on the latest data available</span> </p&gt;}, number={2}, journal={International Journal of Advanced Science and Technology}, author={et al., Miss Ananya Borgohain}, year={2020}, month={Jan.}, pages={3542 - 3550} }
