According to UNDP`s Human Development Report - 2020, India has improved in all the components of the Human Development Index (HDI) in recent years.

The Human Development Index (HDI) measures a country`s development based on three key dimensions:

1. Life expectancy at birth: This component measures the average number of years a person is expected to live from birth. Improvements in healthcare, nutrition, and overall well-being contribute to increased life expectancy.

2. Expected years of schooling: This component measures the number of years of formal education a child is expected to receive. Access to quality education and increased enrollment rates contribute to higher expected years of schooling.

3. Gross National Income (GNI) per capita: GNI per capita is a measure of a country`s average income per person. It includes income from all sources, such as wages, salaries, and investments. Higher GNI per capita indicates improved economic well-being and higher living standards.
