Regional Patterns of Human and Child Deprivation in India
This paper takes a look at regional patterns of human and child deprivation in India, based on district-level data. It presents and compares two simple summary indices of living conditions at the district level: a standard "human development index" and a variant of it focusing specifically on children.
Thanks are due to Tsering Wangyal and Akansha Batra for helping with the maps, and to Debraj Bagchi and Aashish Gupta for research assistance. We are also grateful to the Office of the Registrar General for unpublished data on age-specific literacy rates.
