Level of Human Resource Development in Naga-Majority Areas of North-East India
Journal Title: Scholars Journal of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences - Year 2016, Vol 4, Issue 2
Abstract
India’s North-east is one of the most ethnically diverse regions in the country with large-scale overlapping ethnicities and cultures within it. Ethnic tensions and neglect of the region has perpetuated the regional imbalance and socio-economic inequalities among the populations considerably undermining the development pursuits. Against this backdrop, the paper attempts to study the nature of human resource development and determine its relationship with the pattern of regional development in the Naga-majority areas of northeast India. Study shows that ethnic identity movement, lack of political will, corruption, inadequate social and economic infrastructure, low level of industrialisation and urbanization, and poor implementation of development schemes are responsible for the impediments of human resource progress in the study area. Keywords: Human resource development, Regional Development, Northeast India, Ethnicity, Nagas.
