Abstract

The main aim of development policy of any welfare state is to improve living standard of people, to empower deprived section of the society which can be secured by expenditure on development sector. The present study analysed the pattern of development expenditure in Haryana during 1990-91 to 2019-20. Total public expenditure and development expenditure both showed increasing trend during the study period. The development expenditure’s major share was on economic services during the first two decades of economic reforms. After that, social services expenditure exceeded over economic services expenditure and its share was more than 50 per cent of total development expenditure. The study suggested that government should also focus on other sectors of social and economic services expenditure and make policies for effective utilization of the public expenditure.
