Several factors have contributed to India's economic struggles over the years, and among the options you've mentioned, a poorly developed infrastructure stands out as a significant contributor.
- Poorly Developed Infrastructure: Inadequate infrastructure affects various sectors, including transportation, energy, and sanitation, limiting economic growth and efficiency. Poor roads, insufficient power supply, and inadequate public transportation can hinder business operations and reduce competitiveness.
While the other factors mentioned can also play a role in economic struggles, India's agriculture is typically supported by diverse soil types, and while isolation has been a concern historically, India has been increasingly integrated into the global economy. Not investing in productive capital is also a factor but often ties back into infrastructure challenges and investment in human capital.
