 Infrastructure means the services which is available which directly or indirectly increases the production of the country. The main importance of infrastructure is as follows:-
  1.  Economic development-  Infrastructure is all about the services which is provided. If you consider to develop the economy then three criterions differ based on underdeveloped , developing and developed countries. Considering a under- developed country it's main function is to achieve self reliance. This factor can be achieved only by improving the agriculture and industrial sector. For the improvement in agricultural  sector new irrigation system, Cropping patterns , fertilizers etc should be developed which is a part of the infrastructure. Needless to say industries thoroughly depend upon the infrastructure starting from obtaining the raw materials to marketing it for sales and profit. Thus for a undeveloped country to improve we need infrastructure. Similarly, a developed country already achieved the factor of self- reliance now to improve the economy further it should invest in the telecom industry to enhance the services provided. Telecom sector also is completely depended on infrastructure only. The developing countries should concentrate on self reliance as well as telecom industry for rapid improvement.
  2. Improvement in the standard of living- When the quality of services provided improves and it is also made affordable and accessible the standard of living will improve.
  3. Sectoral contribution - For the improvement in the agricultural sector investment in infrastructural facilities like irrigation, ploughing, manure and weedicides etc, and of course industries and tertiary sector is the most dependant on infrastructure.
  4. Globalisation- By improvement in thee telecom industry foreign trade, IT sector, outsourcing industry will all improve thus leading to effective globalisation.
  5. Morbidity and illiteracy- Morbidity tell us about the proneness to become ill. Facilities provided by the health sector will improve by improve the infrastructure thus more diseases can be prevented and cured by spending more on preventive, curative and social medicines thus reducing morbidity. Also education sector will become more advanced and the presence of smart board classes , will improve the quality of classroom transactions which will in turn will reduce the number of illiterates.
