Economy With
an estimated net State Domestic Product (SDP) of 83,085 crores (830.85

commercial center in South Asia. Delhi has a per capita income of 53,976
INR which is around 2.5 times of the national average. The tertiary sector
contributes 70.95% of Delhi's gross SDP followed by secondary and primary
sectors with 25.2% and 3.85% contribution respectively. |

In
2004, the total workforce in all government (union and state) and quasi
government sector was 620,000. In comparison, organised private sector
employed 219,000. Delhi's service sector has expanded due in part to the
large skilled English-speaking workforce that has attracted many multinational
companies. Key service industries include information technology, telecommunications,
hotels, banking, media and tourism. Delhi's manufacturing industry has
also grown considerably as many consumer goods industries have established
manufacturing units and headquarters in and around Delhi. Delhi's large
consumer market, coupled with the easy availability of skilled labour,
has attracted foreign investment in Delhi. In 2001, the manufacturing
sector employed 1,440,000 workers while the number of industrial units
was 129,000. Construction, power, telecommunications, health and community
services, and real estate form integral parts of Delhi's economy. Delhi's
retail industry is one of the fastest growing industries in India. |

New Delhi Urban Growth This
image set compares a 1974 Landsat MSS image to a Landsat 7 Thematic Mapper
data set collected in 1999. The two lower panels reflect land use in and
around the city for the respective dates. The color red is used to depict
the presence of urbanized areas. Clearly the city has demonstrated a significant
growth in area over the past 25 years. The population of New Delhi increased
from approximately 5 million in 1975 to over 13 million in 2001 (projected).
Urban expansion around existing population centers results in a number
of problems with policy and management issues. Prime agricultural land
is often lost, additional transportation and other infrastructure services
are required, and natural ecosystems are destroyed or disrupted with resultant
pollution problems. Change analysis such as this can aid in identifying
and quantifying the problems associated with such transformations and
provide invaluable information to the decision-making process.Links: http://www.mdafederal.com/ |
