Detailed Solution

Rajasthan is very well endowed with solar and wind energy but lacks water resources. Specific resource categories are plentiful in certain areas but rare in others. Certain regions can be considered self-sufficient regarding resource availability, whilst others are severely lacking in some vital resources. Mineral and coal resources are abundant in Jharkhand, Chhattisgarh, and Madhya Pradesh. Despite having significant water resources, Arunachal Pradesh's infrastructure development is poor. Rajasthan needs water resources despite having vast wind and solar resources. The freezing desert of Ladakh is essentially shut off from the rest of the country.
