Question

What examples can you find to show that Green Revolution strategies created regional inequalities? 

Answer 1

The Green Revolution strategies created regional inequalities :

1. The areas that underwent this technological transformation became more developed while other areas stagnated. 
2. For instance, the Green Revolution was promoted more in the western and southern parts of the country, and in Punjab, Haryana, and western U.P., than in the eastern parts of the country. 
3. As a result, states such as Bihar and in eastern U.P., and dry regions such as Telengana, were relatively undeveloped. 
4. The sharp caste and class inequalities, together with exploitative labour relations, in these regions has given rise to various kinds of violence (including inter-caste violence) in recent years.
