You can claim whatever you want online. Everyone knows how Hindu women are treated in India.

Women getting raped by their drunk husbands is a common place among Hindus in India. Honor killing is rampant, even among educated Hindus.

Now after the rise of Hindu extremism many Indians are calling for reviving Sati and other ancient barbaric practices of Hindus. They want to completely rollback all the Hindu reforms made under Muslim and British rule.

Haha.
 
@Species

How about similar numbers for cars, 2 wheelers etc? Energy consumption per capita?

Regards

Bangladesh govt. discourages personal car use and imposes up to 800% tax on cars which has resulted in low number of per capita car use.

With regards to energy consumption, per capita natural gas consumption in:
Bangladesh - 6.07 cubic feet
India - 1.34 cubic feet

 
@Species

Natural gas is just one source of energy. Can you give us the per capita aggregate consumption of energy (say in GJoules or GCal/person)- shouldnt be difficult to dig up.

800% tax on cars has resulted in low number of per capita car use.

How about comparing per capita use of two wheelers? Or does GoBD discourage use of 2 wheelers too?

Couldn't any find latest data on per capita consumption of energy from all sources. If you find one, make sure it includes off-grid consumption as well. For instance, Bangladesh's off-grid Solar Home System is one of the largest solar power coverage in the world, providing electricity to 20 million people.

There are also restrictions on two-wheelers.
 
India has universal access to food, as part of policy.
Sometimes, a few people get left out due to lack of education/ papers or the corrupt person assigned to distribution.

There have been large strides in poverty alleviation and creation of infrastructure.

Remember, cost of living is low here, and you can save significant amounts even with labor jobs.

The rising middle/ elite class will keep increasing the trickle down.

How about smartphones? Cement? Steel? Everything is restricted?
 
In the absence of real data, India's stats are all being manufactured by BJP to win elections.

Postponing India’s census is terrible for the country
But it may suit Narendra Modi just fine

https://www.economist.com/asia/2023/01/05/postponing-indias-census-is-terrible-for-the-country


Narendra Modi often overstates his achievements. For example, the Hindu-nationalist prime minister’s claim that all Indian villages have been electrified on his watch glosses over the definition: only public buildings and 10% of households need a connection for the village to count as such. And three years after Mr Modi declared India “open-defecation free”, millions of villagers are still purging al fresco. An absence of up-to-date census information makes it harder to check such inflated claims. It is also a disaster for the vast array of policymaking reliant on solid population and development data.

----------

Three years ago India’s government was scheduled to pose its citizens a long list of basic but important questions. How many people live in your house? What is it made of? Do you have a toilet? A car? An internet connection? The answers would refresh data from the country’s previous census in 2011, which, given India’s rapid development, were wildly out of date. Because of India’s covid-19 lockdown, however, the questions were never asked.

Almost three years later, and though India has officially left the pandemic behind, there has been no attempt to reschedule the decennial census. It may not happen until after parliamentary elections in 2024, or at all. Opposition politicians and development experts smell a rat.

----------

For a while policymakers can tide themselves over with estimates, but eventually these need to be corrected with accurate numbers. “Right now we’re relying on data from the 2011 census, but we know our results will be off by a lot because things have changed so much since then,” says Pronab Sen, a former chairman of the National Statistical Commission who works on the household-consumption survey. And bad data lead to bad policy. A study in 2020 estimated that some 100m people may have missed out on food aid to which they were entitled because the distribution system uses decade-old numbers.

Similarly, it is important to know how many children live in an area before building schools and hiring teachers. The educational misfiring caused by the absence of such knowledge is particularly acute in fast-growing cities such as Delhi or Bangalore, says Narayanan Unni, who is advising the government on the census. “We basically don’t know how many people live in these places now, so proper planning for public services is really hard.”

The home ministry, which is in charge of the census, continues to blame its postponement on the pandemic, most recently in response to a parliamentary question on December 13th. It said the delay would continue “until further orders”, giving no time-frame for a resumption of data-gathering. Many statisticians and social scientists are mystified by this explanation: it is over a year since India resumed holding elections and other big political events.

By fabricating data to look good for themselves is actually running from reality.

How can you fix something if you don't know where the broken one is?

If you don't know where to fix, are you sure that you are really trying to fix something?

Basically, you are not working.


If you are trying to fix something, is it sustainable in the long run?

The government builds thousands of public toilets, most of them will be broken in less than a year.

It means you only have a working toilet for just less than a year, the rest of it, back to the stone age.

But in the book, your country has thousands of 'brand new and working' public toilets since... well, 10000 BC.


This kind of case is not just happened in one country.

But almost all countries around the world.

There is a very serious problem in our political system.

Truly!

Democracy? Where is your voice, people?

135 Million Indians Escaped Multidimensional Poverty In 5 Years, UP Saw Largest Decline In Number Of Poor: NITI Aayog Report

A record 13.5 crore people moved out of multidimensional poverty between 2015-16 and 2019-21 as per NITI Aayog’s report ‘National Multidimensional Poverty Index: A Progress Review 2023’.

The report was released on Monday (17 July) by NITI Aayog vice chairman Suman Bery.

Based on the latest National Family Heath Survey [NFHS-5 (2019-21)], this second edition of the National Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) represents India’s progress in reducing multidimensional poverty between the two surveys, NFHS-4 (2015-16) and NFHS-5 (2019-21).

It builds on the Baseline Report of India’s National MPI launched in November 2021.

The broad methodology followed is in consonance with the global methodology.

The National MPI measures simultaneous deprivations across the three equally weighted dimensions of health, education, and standard of living that are represented by 12 SDG-aligned indicators.

These include nutrition, child and adolescent mortality, maternal health, years of schooling, school attendance, cooking fuel, sanitation, drinking water, electricity, housing, assets, and bank accounts.

According to the report, India has registered a significant decline of 9.89 percentage points in number of India’s multidimensionally poor from 24.85 per cent in 2015-16 to 14.96 per cent in 2019-2021.

The rural areas witnessed the fastest decline in poverty from 32.59 per cent to 19.28 per cent.

During the same period, the urban areas saw a reduction in poverty from 8.65 per cent to 5.27 per cent.

Uttar Pradesh registered the largest decline in number of poor with 3.43 crore people escaping multidimensional poverty.

Providing multidimensional poverty estimates for the 36 states and Union Territories and 707 administrative districts, the report states that the fastest reduction in the proportion of multidimensional poor was observed in the states of Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Madhya Pradesh, Odisha, and Rajasthan.

Between 2015-16 and 2019-21, the MPI value has nearly halved from 0.117 to 0.066 and the intensity of poverty has reduced from 47 per cent to 44 per cent, thereby setting India on the path of achieving the SDG Target 1.2 (of reducing multidimensional poverty by at least half) much ahead of the stipulated timeline of 2030.

According to a NITI Aayog release, it demonstrates the government’s strategic focus on ensuring sustainable and equitable development and eradicating poverty by 2030, thereby adhering to its commitment towards the SDGs.

The government's dedicated focus on improving access to sanitation, nutrition, cooking fuel, financial inclusion, drinking water, and electricity has led to significant advancements in these areas, the government think tank said.

All 12 parameters of the MPI have shown marked improvements, it added.

"Flagship programmes like the Poshan Abhiyan and Anaemia Mukt Bharat have contributed to reduced deprivations in health. Initiatives such as Swachh Bharat Mission (SBM) and Jal Jeevan Mission (JJM) have improved sanitation across the country. The impact of these efforts is evident in the swift 21.8 percentage points improvement in sanitation deprivations," the NITI Aayog said.

"The provision of subsidised cooking fuel through the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana (PMUY) has positively transformed lives, with a 14.6 percentage points improvement in cooking fuel deprivations. Initiatives like Saubhagya, Pradhan Mantri Awas Yojana (PMAY), Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana (PMJDY), and Samagra Shiksha have also played a major role in significantly reducing multidimensional poverty in the country," it added.

The government think tank further noted that the "remarkable progress achieved through extremely low deprivation rates especially for electricity, access to bank accounts and drinking water, reflects the government's unwavering commitment to improving citizens' lives and creating a brighter future for all".

Consistent implementation across a diverse set of programmes and initiatives that have strong interlinkages has led to significant reduction in deprivations across multiple indicators, it added.
