Option 1 : Medium human development
The correct answer is Medium human development.
- India is placed 131st out of 189 nations in the Human Development Report 2020, which was created by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).
- The nation was classified as having a medium level of human development with an HDI score of 0.645.
It is challenging to appropriately compare India's rating between this year and 2019. - The UNDP has updated and altered the underlying data and changed the goalpost.
- However, the UNDP provided some information in its country report charting India's progress in human development between 1990 and 2019.
- The Human Development Index (HDI) is a summary indicator of average performance in three important areas of human development: living a long and healthy life, having access to education, and having a respectable level of living.
- The geometric mean of the normalised indices in each of the three dimensions is the HDI.
- Life expectancy at birth is used to evaluate the health component, while the education dimension is evaluated using the average number of years spent in school for persons 25 years and older and the anticipated number of years spent in school for young children.
- HDI classification (value):
- Low (< 0.550)
- Medium (0.550-0.699)
- High (0.700-0.799)
- Very high (≥ 0.800)
