Himachal Pradesh
Himachal Pradesh, blessed with stunning natural beauty, is a major tourist attraction. It has fairly impressive infrastructure in place and its economy is largely agriculture-dependent. The state also has mega hydro-electric projects.
The tentacles of corruption have Himachal too in its grip: the TI survey says it is 'Moderately Corrupt.'
Prem Kumar Dhumal is the state's chief minister.
