Abstract
Fiscal decentralization is an area which is getting attention globally in recent times. Moreover, a few studies are focused on the relation between fiscal decentralization and human development, but there are a limited number of studies which uses statistical methods to analyze the relationship between the two. So, this paper is an attempt to analyze the relationship between fiscal decentralization and human development in India. Despite it also tries to look into the scenario of fiscal decentralization in Assam and compared the impact of Fiscal Decentralization on Human Development in Assam with other states of the country. This paper intends to show the relative position of states in India with respect to their scores in Devolution Index of 2009 and Human Development Index of 2001 and 2011. The study has found that the relation between fiscal decentralization and human development is not so close; it is only a moderately positive correlation. The moderately positive correlation states that it is not necessary that by improvement in decentralization human development would automatically improve.
