Mumbai Region [One third of all government taxes come from this region alone]
It attracts much industry due to :-Best transport system (good roads, railways, port and international airport)-Best telecommunications (telephone, fax and internet)-Educated and English speaking workforce-Government investment eg. Setting up IT parks

Development and HealthDifferences
Himalayas and Thar Desert [40% poverty rate which is one of the worst in the world]:
-It is very remote with poor roads and railways meaning a lack of industry and commercial farming.-Climate problems make the areas less attractive for development.-Low literacy rates (below 50% in Bihar)

Development and HealthDifferences
Very poor quality of life in the Shanty towns eg. Dharavi in Mumbai
- This is because the city authorities cannot provide housing, sanitation, water etc. for the rapidly growing population.
