Abstract

Telecommunication and information services represent the output of a given sector no doubt but they play a key role in industrial interdependence Growth in many other sectors like that in financial services, tourism and transport, to speak about a few, depend vitally upon provision of these services. Their role as inputs I many other important sectors cannot be overemphasized. The fact that basically they are infrastructure services and their growth is largely conditional upon the growth in demand from other sectors of the economy is true to the core. The development of service sectors in the economy will lead to intensification of demand for these industries and business and professional uses will multiply. The current industrial scene, not only in India but in foreign countries also is dominated by the service sector. Replacement of manufacturing by services implies greater need for faster communication. Industrial production is carried out in a single factory complete with several plants. Communication as between these different plants or sections is important no doubt but physical movement can also do the job where as in the case of services there is a separation between the client and the service provider. Connections cover long distance, for instance hotel booking or booking for hights may encompass considerable distance. Here tele link or internet connectivity assumes added significance. Thus further growth of service sector will create additional demand for infrastructural services.
