The economy needs reliable infrastructure to connect supply chains and efficiently move goods and services across borders. Infrastructure connects households across metropolitan areas to higher quality opportunities for employment, healthcare, and education. Clean energy and public transit can reduce greenhouse gases.
India's weak infrastructure creates an economic challenge in the country in numerous ways:
Energy is more expensive and energy supplies are irregular for almost every business and especially its manufacturing areas.
Product transportation across the country is also more expensive, creating delays at ports and airports, which elevates transportation costs.
It makes India unattractive to FDI.
It adds to the cost of living and represents a limitation for millions of India's poorest families to avoid extreme poverty.
A weak infrastructure damages India's reputation and tourism possibilities.
Answer:
The plates converge, diverge or move past each other (sideways)
Explanation:
The earth crust is divided into different tectonic plates. The manner and way this separated plates moves determines the earth structure and topology of the earth. Even this movement causes hazardous event like volcanic eruption.
The plates movement can be converging, diverging or moving past each other .
Convergence occur when two plates collides with each other . The boundary where this phenomenon takes place is called the convergent boundary. The colliding of this plates causes earth deformation and extensive uprising . In the case where a continental plates collides the collision produces mountains . The continental plates are less dense and very active. Continental plates contains more of granitic rocks and this is what contributes to their less dense nature. The collision of this active plates causes an up-welling to form mountain belts . The highest mountain(mountain Everest) was formed through this process. There can also be convergence when oceanic plates collides with a continental plates. The more dense oceanic plates subduct , this subduction leads to introduction of molten magma to the earth surface through volcanic eruption.
At the divergence boundary , two plates move away from each other . This divergent boundary is dominant in the oceanic crust . It can also occur in the continental crust. The plates diverge into two parts . The mid oceanic ridge forming the point of separation. Volcanic eruption introduces magma through the crest of the oceanic ridge to form a new crust.
At the transform boundary, plates moves past each other in a side way manner. The transform movement produces many faults. example San Andrea Fault.
The answer is the Mediterranean
