from different economic , social backgrounds, so everyone
has a different goal within their resources.
2. Their capabilities and talents are different, a person who
can sing can make a development goal to become a singer.
3. Different people have different passion, motivation level
to do something, which drives towards a goal in life. Ex. A
farmer’s son may have a passion to become an IAS officer,
he can find the ways.

INDICATORS
OF
ECONOMIC GROWTH

1. GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT


2. NATIONAL INCOME
3. PERCAPITA INCOME
GROSS DOMESTIC PRODUCT
Money value of all the final goods &
services produced in a domestic
territory of a country in an
accounting year is called as Gross
Domestic Product
NATIONAL INCOME
Money value of all the final goods &
services produced in a country in an
accounting year is called as
NATIONAL INCOME/PRODUCT
PER CAPITA INCOME
Per Capita Income is an average
income which is calculated by
dividing national income by total
population.
PCI = National income / population
WHY
THESE
INDICATORS?
• They help in comparing the
country’s economic status
• It helps in evaluating the
development plans
• It helps in finding deficiencies
• It helps in government’s decision

CRITERIA USED BY WORLD BANK TO COMPARE
THE COUNTRY’S LEVEL OF ECONOMIC
GROWTH.

PER CAPITA INCOME


LIMITATION
OF
PERCAPITA NON MONITISED SECTOR-
INCOME still prevails in the economy, so
AS AN GDP is under estimated
INDICATOR
OF IT HIDES DISPARITIES
Averages are good for comparisons but it does
ECONOMIC not tell us how this income is distributed
among people. Two countries may have same
GROWTH income but one may have equal distribution &
another unequally distributed
INCOME CRITERIA:-
PERCAPITA INCOME IS THE BEST
INDICATOR

Haryana is at the top


followed by Kerala & Bihar
(as per income criteria)
CRITERIA OTHER THAN INCOME

Kerala is at the top followed by Haryana & Bihar


(It shows that per capita income is not a sufficient
criteria to know the real situation of the growth, so
some other social indicators are significant)
WHAT MAKES DIFFERENCE?

1. INFANT MORTALITY RATE:


No. of children die before the age of one year as a
proportion of 1000 live children born in that year.

2. LITERACY RATE :No of people who can read,


write and understand any one language. It measures
the proportion of literate population in the 7 and above
age group

3. NET ATTENDANCE RATIO:


Total no. of children of age group 6-10 attending school
as a percentage of total no. of children in the same age
group
4. PUBLIC FACILITIES
Facilities provided by the government which is for all
the people which fulfills the need of all the people of
the country collectively. It is called as COLLECTIVE
CONSUMPTION
PUBLIC DISTRIBUTION SYSTEM
FREE EDUCATION
STREET LIGHTING
CONSTRUCTION OF ROADS, BRIDGES, DAMS
CONSTRUCTION OF HOUSES
BETTER MEDICAL FACILITIES
GOOD TRANSPORT SYSTEM

SO ANOTHER INDICATOR (HDI) IS DEVELOPED BY


UNDP (United Nations Development Programme)
HUMAN DEVELOPMENT INDEX (HDI)
INCREASING NATIONAL INCOME , PER CAPITA INCOME IS NOT
SUFFICIENT TO IMPROVE QUALITY OF LIFE OF PEOPLE OF THE
COUNTRY.
COMPONENTS OF HDI
LIFE EXPECTANCY ( Longevity)

expectancy. It measures the health status and awareness
of the people of the country

SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
DEVELOPMENT WITHOUT HARMING THE ENVIRONMENT AND
TAKING CARE OF THE FUTURE GENERATIONS

Significance of the concept:


1. Pollution: As development activities have increased all types of pollution in the
environment that increased the medical bills, expenditure on cooling systems,
water and air purifiers etc.
2. Resource Conservation: Renewable and non renewable resources have been
excessively extracted leading to environmental crisis. So sustainable development
is important that will save resources.
3. Disasters: unplanned development activities of human beings have lead to
manmade disaster neutralizing the development activities.
4. Ecological Balance: There is a nature’s imbalance due to as man has broken the
cycle and thus earth is loosing its existence.
5. Taking care of Future generations: what we have got from our ancestors, the same
we have to give it to the future generations, due to which sustainable development
is important.
