Ltd, New Delhi 2011,c1996 214 The over all low level of economic development creates disparities in living standards of people between the two agro-climatic regions. It is further accentuated by the introduction of "Green Revolution."The agriculture, which is the predominant source of living of the majority of the people, cannot stop people migrating in search of their livelihood in drought prone regions. However, these regions are endowed with other natural resources including human resources which could be transformed or made use of for the development of the same regions.This call for an attention to explore the existing potentialities of developing industries that largely make use manpower and local natural resources and creat employment opportunities in such regions as they are mainly labour intensive. Rural Industrialisation as a source of employment and income generation of the unemployed adn under employed people in the rural areas has been increasingly gaining importance over the years especialy in the context of developing countries like India. This is all the more true in an economy, whires liberalisation is instrumental in releasing the productive forces.Rural Industrialisation is gaining considerable importance as an indispensable process of development. The policy design should accelerate the process of industrialisation. The forces favourable to the emergence of rural industrialisation may come from the market or from the natural resource including agriculture and the level and availability of the skill ,education etc. The present study makes a modest attempt to understand the process of rural industrilisation in drought prone region such as Anantapur, which is regarded as second worst affected distric of the whole country while examining the process of rural industries in drought prone region an attempt s made to indentify a few forces that could be encouraged to accelerate the pace of the rural industrialisation in such region vis-a-vis non-drought prone region as well as the socio-economic status and extent of rural industrialisation interms of employment pattern, capital structure , value added, the growth potential of rural industries in drought prone region . The present study also tries to visualise some policy instrument which can be applied so as to take off the economy from a sort of low level equilibrium trap.
