Gujarat makes a unique state in India because of the following :-
1)Unlike trends at national level Gujarat has not replaced spending in education and medical with social security and welfare. The state’s proportion of overall expenditure spent on development activities has remained range bound at 55-65 per cent of revenue expenditure. Spending in agriculture and allied activities has increased from 6 per cent of development expenditure in FY04 to 7.5 per cent in FY12.
2)Unlike other states, Gujarat’s dependence on central government fund is very low. Its own tax revenue as a percentage of total tax revenue is the highest in the country at 84 per cent. Share of central taxes and grants from the centre account for less than 30 per cent of overall revenue receipts for the state.
3)Agriculture contribution is significantly higher than industrialized states like Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu. Agriculture contributes 13 per cent to Gujarat’s GSDP and supports 53 per cent of the population while its contribution to the national agriculture has doubled over the last 10 years. This has been possible by increasing its yields and acreage under cultivation. Yields in food grains have increased from 827 kgs per hectare in 2001 to 1845 kgs per hectare in 2011, which is almost double the country’s average.
4)While industrial growth of Gujarat has been thanks to industry friendly policies, natural advantage of a long coastline and entrepreneurial nature of its people, the present government’s initiative have enabled it to attract a diverse set of industries and industrialists.
5)A number of Indian states have evolved directly from being an agrarian economy to a service powerhouse without going through a phase where manufacturing dominates, which resulted in no large scale creation of employment. In Gujarat however, manufacturing accounts for 40 per cent of the Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP) as compared to 27 per cent for India. The state also scores better than Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu, which have been witnessing fall in share of industry. Gujarat now accounts for 11-11.5 per cent of the country’s industrial output as compared to 8-8.5 per cent in 2001.
