The process of financial inclusion can be seen as an effective instrumental mechanism for
enlarging people’s choice in respect of some basic indicators of human development. The most
important choices are considered to be a long and healthy life, to be educated, and to enjoy a
decent standard of living. The study sheds some light on the association between the process of
financial inclusion and the level of human development in the context of different states of India.
Empirical evidences suggest that an all-inclusive financial system would facilitate the process
of human development by addressing the basic distortions in the level of human development in
the Indian economy. |
