But there is also a huge increase in inequality in income and wealth.

At the same time, between 2004 and 2019, poverty has reduced from 40% to 10%.
According to the report, women's share in work participation is only 23 percent.
The richest 10% of the country own more than half of the country's wealth.
Whereas 18.50 crore people are forced to live in poverty whose income is less than 2.15 dollars i.e. 180 rupees.
In the states where 45% of the country's population resides, 62% of their population is poor.
The United Nations Development Program was established in the year 1965.
