2. Agriculture Labour
The agriculture labour levels are constant at the India level which means that households
leaving agriculture are getting absorbed in the secondary and tertiary sectors
In Madhya Pradesh, the level of self employment in agriculture has declined from 46
percent in 2004-2005 to 41 percent in 2009-2010
This means that households leaving self employment in agriculture are not getting
employment in other sectors and are forced to work as agriculture labour to sustain their
livelihoods
The agriculture sector in Madhya Pradesh still employs more than two thirds of the rural
population
3. Agriculture Labour
The number of people who are landless and work as agricultural labour has increased from
29.5 percent to 34.5 percent. This is the poorest and most vulnerable community
Madhya Pradesh boasts of growth in Agriculture. What we will comment on that later, it
has not reached lakhs of Madhya Pradesh’s farmers
Since 2004-2005 the proportion of rural people employed in agriculture has declined for
both India and Madhya Pradesh. The reduction in Madhya Pradesh has been slower than
the national level, 13.7 percent reduction as compared to 19.5 percent at the national level

10. Literacy
During the Congress government, literacy grew at a rate of 19.1 percent as compared to 6.9 percent during
the BJP years
The Gender Gap in Literacy which measures the literacy gap between males and females is 20.51 percent in
Madhya Pradesh as compared to 16.68 percent in India
Female literacy under the Congress Government grew at 20.9 percent while under BJP it has grown at a rate
of 9.7 percent
Female literacy growth rate between 1991 and 2001 exceeded not only the male literacy growth rate but also
the national average
This was due to the impact of the 'padhna-badhna andolan’ and the famed ‘Education Guarantee Scheme’
launched during the tenure of Shri Digvijay Singh under the Rajiv Gandhi Saksharta Mission
11. Under Congress literacy grew by 19%, but under BJP it grew by just 7%. Congress reduced gap with India
to just 1.1%, BJP has increased this to 3.4%

1500 in Delhi
Disability pension in MP is Rs.200 compared to Rs.1000 in Rajasthan
Even though the state grew at a rate of 12% during 2012-2013 it continues to fare badly on
all human development indicators
In fact if we take the average growth over five years, MP stands 17th amongst all States and
not in the top few as the CM claims
The expenditure on health was 0.95% of the State GDP in 2012-2013. This has been
slashed down to 0.89% of the state GDP in 2013-2014
The State had fourth highest percentage of poor households among 15 non-special
category states in the year 2004-05, next only to Odisha, Bihar and Chhattisgarh
28. The State with a tribal population of 20.3% has cut down its Tribal Sub Plan from
2.11% of the GDP in 2012-2013 to 1.91% of the GDP in 2013-2014
The proportion of educated job seekers has increased from 77.8% in 2010 to 78.2% in
2011
The number of people registered in employment exchanges has increased from 20.02
lakhs in 2011 to 20.67 lakhs in 2012 (MP Economic Survey 2012-13). It is 3.25 percent
higher than the previous year
The number of educated unemployed has increased from 14.05 lakhs in 2011 to 16.6
lakhs in 2012
In 2009-2010 8.47 lakh people were employed in the public sector, out of which 1.21 lakh
were women. In 2010-2011, 8.5 lakh people are employed in the public sector, out of
which 1.2 lakh are women. The percentage of women employed has decreased by 0.83
percent
30. Sex Ratio
While the overall sex ratio of the state has improved from 912 in 1991 to 930 in 2011 it still
remains 10 points below the national level
In 2001 the child sex ratio was 932 which was 5 points higher than the national level
During the BJP years (2001-2011) the child sex ratio declined by 20 points as compared to
13 points at the national level
The state government launched the “Beti Bachao Abhiyan” in 2011 to counter the
worsening sex ratio instead of taking steps to effectively implement the Pre-conception and
Prenatal Diagnostic Techniques (Prohibition of Sex Selection) Act 1994
31. Nutrition
Three indices are used to measure the nutritional status of children: Stunted which measures
height of the child in relation to their age; Wasted which measures weight in relation to their
height and underweight which means that the body weight is too low to be healthy
52% of the children are underweight which is the result of inadequate food intake
Two in five adult women and men are too thin
32. Nutrition
Under-nutrition is higher among the younger population (15-19 years), in rural areas, in low
income households and among scheduled castes and scheduled tribes
The Chief Minister talks of agriculture growth, of being an Uncle to the children of his
State and yet 52% are underweight and 49% are stunted
The number of severely underweight children in Madhya Pradesh has increased by 78447 in
just one year (2010-2011)

39. Mortality
Madhya Pradesh has the worst IMR in India. A Chief Minister who gives toys to children
to win votes is unable to give them the chance to survive the first year of birth
30 of our districts are amongst the worst 100 districts in India in IMR
The Under 5 Mortality rate for Madhya Pradesh is 86 as compared to 55 for India. It is the
highest in the country after Uttar Pradesh
The Maternal Mortality Ratio in Madhya Pradesh is 269 as compared to 212 for India
43. Life Expectancy
Not only children, even the life expectancy is the third lowest in India.
Compared to India’s, the misgovernance of the state takes away 4 years of everyone’s life
and 10 years compared to Kerala and others.
45. Health Infrastructure
Infant Mortality Rate is the number of deaths of children less than one year of age/1000 live births
While the required number of PHC’s has increased from 1670 in 2006 to 1977 in 2011, the BJP government
under Shri Shivraj Singh Chouhan has only managed to add 7 PHC’s in 5 years
Under the Congress Government the no. of PHC’s in MP was 1194. This has reduced to 1156 under the BJP
Government
Not only is the health very bad, the current CM has made it even worse by ensuring that sustained number of
PHC’s are also not there
Whether it is to promote privatisation one does not know
Total number of PHC’s has gone down from 1194 under Congress to 1156 today while 1977 are needed

49. Expenditure on Health
The State Government’s expenditure on health as a proportion to total expenditure has declined from
5.1 percent in 2000-01 to 4.3 percent in 2012-2013 even though the state fares poorly on all
health parameters
Madhya Pradesh is ranked 16th in the country in terms of Expenditure on Medical and Public Health and
Family Welfare as a Ratio to Aggregate Expenditure
51. India State Hunger Index
Out of the 17 states for which the Hunger Index is calculated, Madhya Pradesh has the
highest rank and is the only state which falls in the ‘extremely alarming’ category
According to the index, Madhya Pradesh’s nutrition problems can be compared with SubSaharan African countries like Ethiopia and Chad.

In Madhya Pradesh the State Government under the leadership of Shivraj Singh Chouhan
has managed to increase its installed capacity of power by just 1644 MW in 10 years
For that same period the Centre’s share in Madhya Pradesh’s power utilities has increased by
3187 MW
It is important to note that MP claims power improvement – this has been mainly due to
UPA Government and not MP Government. Also all the new power projects of MP
Government were started under the Congress Government
Losses have also increased, due to corruption and bad management

The national average for road network is 143 km/100 sq km whereas in MP, it is only 64
km/100 sq kms. The road network of the state as compared to other states is very poor.
This is not only an indicator of the backwardness of the state but also the cause of its
backwardness
The average spending on roads and bridges during the Congress years was 2.55
percent of the total budget. This reduced to 1.65 percent during the BJP years

Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative (OPHI) has taken out a new index for
poverty assessment accounting for all types of poor. Madhya Pradesh has 68 percent
poor according to this estimate – where are the tall claims of CM about a state doing well
– if agriculture was really growing the first impact would have been on poverty
The Multidimensional Poverty Index measures poverty using ten indicators: nutrition, child
mortality,
years
of
schooling,
school
attendance,

74. Asset-less Households
See graph below – Census in 2011 counts households with no assets – meaning the poorest households in a
State
Madhya Pradesh is the second worst in India with 33 percent households with no assets –
meaning, one third of the population is amongst the poorest of the poor. A shame for a State
A person’s quality of life depends on the assets available to them among other things
The census since 2001 started collecting data on basic household amenities. The following amenities were
considered under the census: radio/transistor, television, telephone, bicycle, scooter/motorcycle/moped and
car/jeep/van
In 2001, 42.2 percent of the households had none of the specified amenities and Madhya Pradesh’s rank was
26. While the percentage of households with none of the specified amenities has decreased, Madhya
Pradesh’s rank in 2011 is 34 which is the worst in the country after Meghalaya

Madhya Pradesh has very good rainfall and many small rivers. Yet State Government has
had an abysmal record in providing tap water.

opposed to 43.5 percent in the rest of the country

Chief Minister people live in filth

facility as compared to 49 percent at the national level. It is the sixth highest in the
country amongst the major states

sanitation
