Economic growth needs to reflect on HDI: NITI Aayog CEO
NITI Aayog CEO Amitabh Kant has said India's economic growth of 7-8% needs to be reflected in the Human Development Index (HDI), where the country ranks 131 out of 188 nations. He urged industry associations to contribute to development at the district level. Transformation of 115 backward districts from poor to middle status will help in demand generation, he added.
