This dataset captures the multidimensional poverty index, the percentage of persons in multidimensional poverty and the intensity of poverty at the district level. As the values are based on the NFHS surveys, the survey year and number are also available in the dataset. Note: A higher MPI value indicates poorer performance and a lower MPI value indicates better performance.
