Abstract

This paper seeks to briefly explain the impact of infrastructure in urban development of two counties like India and China using secondary data for the time period from 1980 to 2016. ‘F’ test is used to test the relationship between the level of development and infrastructure facilities in both countries. The study resulted that both countries spend more money to provide the infrastructure facilities for high growth rate. But, the position of China in case of infrastructure facilities is superior to India. So the study suggested that India will adopt new techniques to improve their infrastructure so that it can achieve high growth rate.
