15.“Resource planning is a complex process ” support the statement with Arguments.(CBSE 2019)?
Answer by -Amirthavarshini, [12.03.21 23:46]
(Thankyou for your Answer)
Answer:
Resource planning is a complex process as it involves
1. Identification and inventory of resources: surveying mapping qualitative and quantitative plans of development of resources available in each area
2. Evolving a planning structure
3. Matching the resource development plan with nation development plan
4. Some areas lacks few resources and have few resources in surplus amount.
Example:
Rajasthan does not have water resource while have surplus amount of solar and wind energy
Arunachal Pradesh has water but does not have infrastructural development
Ladakh has rich cultural heritage whereas lacks infrastructural development and water.
The identification of resources of each and every state is very difficult process and also matching of these plans with National development plan it is difficult due to which resource planning is considered as complex
