The link between FI and development indicators like agricultural and industrial growth, access to basic education was explored through Ordered Probit Random effect model using panel data. Results indicated that majority of Eastern and North Eastern states have poor FI, in addition Financial Inclusion Index (FII) showed a positive relation with agricultural growth.
