Q 14 / 46

The following table gives the GDP growth rate and Tele-density data of different States of a country in a particular year. Study the table and answer the question:

States Per capita income
($) 		GDP growth rate
(%)		 Tele-density
State 1 704 9.52 70.27
State 2 419 5.31 35.88
State 3 254 10.83 50.07
State 4 545 9.78 5.94
State 5 891 10.8 76.12
State 6 1077 11.69 77.5
State 7 900 8.88 104.86
State 8 395 5.92 6
State 9 720 7.76 82.25
State 10 893 9.55 96.7
State 11 363 4.7 57.7
State 12 966 7.85 63.8
State 13 495 9.37 52.3
State 14 864 5.46 97.9
State 15 497 7.48 62.3
State 16 777 7.03 93.8
State 17 335 5.8 49.9
State 18 599 7.49 47.84

With reference to the above table, the following assumptions have been made:

  1. Now a days, prosperity of an already high performing State cannot be sustained without making further large investments in its telecom infrastructure.
  2. Nowadays, a very high Tele-density is the most essential condition for promoting the business and economic growth in a State.

Which of the above assumptions is/are valid?
