Abstract
Rajasthan is a land of varied natural resources. Still, the state remains industrially backward compared to other states.
Rajasthan's industrial sector and All India's industrial sector are not mutually exclusive. However, Rajasthan forms only a small percentage of the manufacturing sector of all India. Hence, an econometric study in depth of Rajasthan's industrial sector separately and comparison of the results with those of national aggregates would be helpful to know where precisely Rajasthan stands in the industrial development of the country.
