Abstract :

 The infrastructure development of any economy includes development of both economic infrastructure 

and social infrastructure. The economic infrastructure can be achieved through developing various sectors 
like Energy, Power, Telecommunication, Transport (including railways, roadways, airways and seaways), Irrigation, Information Technology and finance etc. On the other hand, the social infrastructure development can be achieved through 
Education infrastructure development and Health infrastructure development. This paper attempts to provide a linkage 
between the infrastructure development and Agricultural Sector by means of portraying the transition of traditional 
agriculture sector into commercialised agriculture sector. This study establishes the relationship between infrastructure 
development and Growth in agricultural sector by answering three basic questions
1. What is the current status of Economic infrastructure development in India?
2. What is the current status of Social infrastructure development in India?
3. What is the role of infrastructure development in Indian Agricultural Growth?
