Gujarat has been the front-runner in the overall economic development of the country all these years, as is evident from the fact that with mere 6% of geographical area and 5% of the population of India, the state contributes to 21% of the country's exports and 6.42% of the national GDP at constant prices. If the decadal growth of performance of some of the Indian states vis-à-vis other Asian economies with that of Gujarat is compared, one gets quite an encouraging scenario. The industrial growth of Gujarat with a figure of 8.52% could be way ahead of many Indian states and other Asian Tigers viz. Singapore, Malaysia and Korea.
