Major Service Sector Issues of Rajasthan.

&<2/”>a >nbsp;

Information Technology and IT enabled Services

Software and services exports continued to remain on top of the IT Industry‘s revenue. The export-driven software sector saw major long-term projects come to Indian ICT leaders and Indian Companies bagging a larger and larger share of the global outsourced business.

The state of Rajasthan offers huge Investment opportunities in IT sector especially ITeS. Rajasthan State Industrial Development and investment Corporation Limited (RIICO) has developed state of art IT parks at Jaipur, Kota, Udaipur and Jodhpur to attract investment in IT sector.RIICO is also considering developing such IT parks at Bhiwadi (Alwar). The Infrastructure-2/”>INFRASTRUCTURE in terms of developed plots, continuous power High-Speed Data Com Facility through satellite earth station, road etc. are being made available to the IT industries in IT parks.

The major industries are Electrolux, Ericsson, GE, Samcor, Instrumentation, Rajasthan Electronics & Instruments (REIL), Genus overseas, Allied Electronic, Compucom, Cistems software, Lipi Data, AkshOptifibre etc.

An investor friendly IT policy is already in place and provides lucrative incentives to IT industries.

The Major Issues faced by Service Sector in Rajasthan are as follows:-

  1. Our infrastructure is inadequate not only in the ruralareas but also in the urban areas. For example, power shortage and traffic congestions are very common inBangalore, the silicon city of India. These effect thequality of services provided.

 

  1. Though service sector has been the fastest growingsector in the last decade and has contributed more than57% of the GDP, it provides less than 25 % of the totalemployment.

 

  1. India has great potential in the tourism sector. But thereis a need to create proper setup for attracting tourists.Foreign tourists often get harassed and cheated in thehands of babus and officialdom, touts and conmen.

 

  1. Etiquettes and good behaviour are the hallmarks of theservice sector. Indian service providers whether they arebanks, hotels and restaurants, hospitals or Public Administration, they need to be trained thoroughly inpublic dealing, etiquettes, hospitality and manners.

 

  1. The Airports, railways etc. in India are not clear and wellorganized. They need to be revamped and reorganized.

 

  1. Our consular division also is not proper. It takes manydays to issue visas. This hampers the Growth of thetourism sector. For this, we need to have a system which

entails single window clearance.

 

  1. Service trade also faces a number of problems. Theseinclude lack of setup like Export Promotion councils(other than for computer software), various visible andinvisible barriers to service trade like visa restrictions,sector specific restrictions and preferential market

Infrastructure of Rajasthan.

Infrastructure is back bone of any economy. The brilliant conceptualization and infrastructure made  Las Vegas what it is today from a desert, and this is a lesson for Rajasthan.

Transport:-

Transport Network plays a backbone for the economic growth of the state.Following facts are important for RAS/RTS Prelims:-

  • Total Road Length=2015003 KM
  • Total National Highway= 7310KM
  • District with Largest Road length= Barmer>jodhpur.nagaur.bikaner.pali
  • National Highway number 15 has largest length in Rajasthan ie 875Km

The service sector is a major contributor to the economy of Rajasthan. It accounts for about 50% of the state’s GDP and employs about 60% of the workforce. However, the service sector in Rajasthan faces a number of challenges, which are hindering its growth.

One of the major challenges faced by the service sector in Rajasthan is the lack of skilled workforce. The state has a shortage of skilled workers in the service sector. This is due to the lack of vocational training institutes and the poor quality of education in government schools. As a result, businesses in the service sector are finding it difficult to find skilled workers.

Another challenge faced by the service sector in Rajasthan is poor infrastructure. The state has poor infrastructure, especially in rural areas. This makes it difficult for businesses to operate and for people to access services. For example, there is a lack of good roads, electricity, and water supply in many parts of the state. This makes it difficult for businesses to set up and operate in these areas.

Corruption is another major problem in the state. It affects all sectors of the economy, including the service sector. Corruption makes it difficult for businesses to operate and for people to access services. For example, businesses may have to pay bribes to get things done, and people may have to pay bribes to get access to services.

Red tape is another challenge faced by the service sector in Rajasthan. The state has a lot of red tape. This makes it difficult for businesses to start and operate. For example, businesses have to go through a lot of paperwork and procedures to get approvals from the government. This can be a time-consuming and expensive process.

Taxes are another challenge faced by the service sector in Rajasthan. The state has high taxes. This makes it difficult for businesses to operate and for people to afford services. For example, businesses have to pay high taxes on their profits. This reduces their profits and makes it difficult for them to invest in their businesses.

Lack of competition is another challenge faced by the service sector in Rajasthan. The state has a lack of competition in the service sector. This is due to the presence of a few large companies that dominate the market. This lack of competition leads to higher prices and lower quality services.

Poor customer service is another challenge faced by the service sector in Rajasthan. This is due to the lack of training and motivation of employees. Employees in the service sector are often not well-trained and are not motivated to provide good customer service. This leads to customer dissatisfaction and can damage the reputation of businesses.

Lack of innovation is another challenge faced by the service sector in Rajasthan. This is due to the lack of investment in research and development. Businesses in the service sector are not investing enough in research and development to develop new products and services. This lack of innovation can lead to businesses falling behind their competitors.

Lack of awareness is another challenge faced by the service sector in Rajasthan. This is due to the poor quality of education and the lack of media coverage. People in Rajasthan are not aware of the importance of the service sector. This lack of awareness can lead to people not choosing to work in the service sector.

Lack of government support is another challenge faced by the service sector in Rajasthan. The state does not provide enough support to the service sector. This is due to the lack of understanding of the importance of the sector by the government. The government does not provide enough funding for the development of the service sector. It also does not provide enough support to businesses in the service sector.

The challenges faced by the service sector in Rajasthan are hindering its growth. The state government needs to take steps to address these challenges. It needs to invest in education and training, improve infrastructure, reduce corruption, and simplify procedures. It also needs to provide more support to businesses in the service sector.
