  • The Index for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) assesses state and union territory development on a variety of fronts, including health, education, gender, economic growth, institutions, climate change, and environmental issues.
  • The index, which was first released in December 2018, has quickly become India's key instrument for tracking progress toward the SDGs.
  • It has also sparked competitiveness among states and UTs by placing them in a rating system based on global goals.
  • The SDG India Index scores range between 0–100, higher the score of a State/UT, the greater the distance to target achieved. States and UTs are classified in four categories based on their SDG India Index score — aspirant: 0–49; performer: 50–64; front-runner: 65–99, achiever: 100. Currently, there are no states in the aspirant and achiever category; 15 states/UTs are in the performer category and 22 states/UTs in the front runner category.
