Gujarat has experienced significant economic growth and development but also faces issues with poverty, inequality, nutrition, and gender inequality. While official poverty data shows a sharp decline, other indicators show a less positive situation. Gender inequality exists in health and nutrition outcomes. Malnutrition levels in Gujarat have improved but it still has work to do to further address the problem, especially severe malnutrition among children. Overall, Gujarat has made progress but still faces challenges in fully addressing human development issues.
The history of Gujarat encompasses the Indus Valley civilization.
The Dravidian tribes were the original inhabitants of the region. The ancient history of Gujarat was enriched by their commercial activities. The history of Gujarat saw an Aryan invasion followed by a brief period of Greek rule. There were a succession of Hindu kingdoms including the era of the Guptas and culminating in the reign of the Solankis.

ABSTRACT: India has been listed as one among 88 countries where people live with hunger. In the Global Hunger Index 2008, India occupied 66th position out of 88 countries listed by International Food Policy Research Institute, Washington, USA. India is a democratic country where 80 percent people reside in rural areas. Socio-Economic status of any country is depends on its economy. Rural economy depends on agriculture. In India rural development enhances Indian economy which ultimately reduces to the poverty. So economy, rural development and poverty are interrelated and interdependent to each other In India the contribution of agriculture in GDP is about 1/5th. In developing nations rural development is supposed a global attention. In India present strategy of rural development is to provide basic amenities infrastructure, better livelihood opportunity and to terminate poverty through various wage and self-employment innovative programmes. The government of India has taken various steps to reduce rural poverty in India such as Small Farmer Development Programmes, Drought Area Development Programmes and Food for Work Programme, Minimum Needs Programme, Integrated Rural Development Programme, National Rural Employment Programme, Rural Labour Employment Guarantee Programme and Assurance on Employment etc. Undoubtedly, government of India has been implemented many government planning to eradicate poverty such as Swaran Jayanti Swarojagar Yojana (SGSY), Drought Prove Area Programme (DPAP), Tribal Area Development Programme (TADP), High Yield Variety Programme (HYVP), Training of Rural Youth for Self-Employment (TRYSEM), Rural Landless Employment Guarantee Programme (RLEGP). In this concern NREGA Act was passed in 2005 that guaranteed 100 days wage of employment in a year to every rural house. Government of India has renamed the NREGA as MGNREGA on 2nd October 2009. On 2, Feb, 2006 it was launched in 200 select districts and was extended to 130 additional districts during 2007-08. It is now implemented in 645 districts of the country.

Analysis of Poverty and Educational Inequality in Uttar Pradeshijtsrd
Poverty is a major challenge for Uttar Pradesh state and India. Poverty is prevalent in both rural and urban areas in the state. Educational disparity refers to the status of education level in social groups that the educational status in scheduled caste is worst as compared to other castes. Male literacy is higher than females, which shows gender inequality in the state. Education is the mirror of society, so the educational development of every individual is very important. Thus, education is the root of progress. Thus, absolute poverty is defined by basic needs, such as food, cloth, and health. There is a lack of quality education in the state. Relative poverty refers to a comparative study based on income or consumption inequality across regions, nations, and internationally. According to the Planning Commission of India, Poverty refers to the availability of calories per capita for consumption, 2400 kilocalories in a rural area and 2100 kilocalories in an urban area, if a person is less consumption given the calories that person comes under poverty. This paper analyzes poverty and educational inequality in Uttar Pradesh during 2004 05 to 2011 12. Thus, educational inequality among social groups reduces the opportunity and development potential in the state this is an injustice for equal development in society.

A STUDY OF GENDER EQUITY POLICY (2004) GUJARAT IJARIIE JOURNAL
Gender equity is one of the millennium development goals (MDGs) by United Nation. The Government of Gujarat
has formulated the Nari gaurav Niti in the year 2002 is also known as gender equity policy . The main aim of the
policy is to eliminate all forms of discrimination against women and provide the equal right to women, which is one
of the most important objectives covered in MDGs. The main role of the policy is to promote conceptual clarity and
awareness on gender issues. The policy has also included the technical inputs for gender planning; gender
budgeting, gender analysis and Audit of policies. In this paper I would like to study the theoretical background of
Gender equity and the reason behind the introduction of the policy. Secondly, i would like to study the philosophy,
goal, requirement of Gender Equity Policy 2004.

India’s wealth and poverty levels
This study will focus on the economic standards of India and the factors that have lead India to have a wealth and poor population at the same time. India over the last couple of year, it has experienced an increased per capita income due to its increased work force. Also, India has been known as one of the countries with a large population languishing over poverty.
India has been experiencing an increase in its economic growth rate over the last four years. In the fiscal year 2014 - 2015 the country had a 7.4% economic increase compared to a 6.9% increase in the fiscal year 2013 - 2014. The country is projecting an economic increase in the fiscal year 2015- 2016 of 7.5%. India was listed the 19th largest merchandise in the year 2013 and with a large export of services which saw India in the 6th position worldwide. The country is not only in the top service export list but also in the import list it was ranked 7th importing merchandise of worthy of $616.7 billion in a total.
In fact, this increase in India’s economic growth has been due to an increased output and high performance of two industries that are the agriculture industry and manufacturing industries. These industries the largest India’s economic growth shareholders and their performance influence the country’s economic growth rate in every fiscal year (Maddison, 2013).
Moreover, India has been among the best known manufacturing industry in the world. This has in turn led the government to allow investors in the country to invest in the sector. The fast growing and large population has provided force labor to the upcoming industries (Maddison, 2013). A large percentage of India’s population is comprised of poor citizens who in turn provide cheap labor to the industries, hence low input which gives the companies large marginal profits.
In addition, the large Indian population has also been a target for the manufacturing industries whose final products are consumed locally in the country before they are exported to other countries. India’s large population has been in the service that also has contributed to the county’s economic growth (Maddison, 2013). The service sector offers services like the tourism, heath care; telecommunication and trade travel services between other many services. These statistics shows that India has been experiencing an increase in its economy.
Furthermore, India is one of the countries that are known to poses both a rich group of individuals and at the same time a large population in poverty. The number of poor in India is reducing significantly over the past four years. Though there are different methods to measure poverty a conclusion has been achieved that India has a large population living under the poverty line. India’s population has been increasing yearly at a rate of 1.8 million people (Krishna, 2006). This has led to their population reaching 1.28 billion people. According to a research curried out by the wo.

This slide explores the strengths and limitations of MDGs, targets and indicators from a gender/social equality lens. It also explores performance of India on each of the 8 MDGs from a gender and social relations lens. It argues that economic growth in India has not translated into progress on MDGs, in particular for Dalits, Adivasis and women
To examine ways forward in using MDGs and other tools to move towards furthering gender justice and other justice
Social development is about improving the well-being of every individual in society so they can reach their full potential.
-The success of society is linked to the well-being of each and every citizen. Social development means investing in people.

Impact of Low Social Spending on Human Development: Regional Disparity in Utt...inventionjournals
he objective of the paper is to describe the low status of human development and increasing intrastate
disparity regarding all the development indicators across the districts and regions in the state. The low
income levels keep the expenditure on social sector at a low level which results in low status of human
development. On the other hand, the low status of human development acts as a major economic constraint on
economic development of the state. The state presents a dismal scenario with regard to both economic growth
and human development. It is characterized by low levels of per capita income, high incidence of poverty,
sluggish economic growth, high population pressure along with high rates of population growth, high birth and
fertility rates, widespread illiteracy, high infant mortality and death rates and low life expectancy. Social sector
expenditure in U.P. is lower even as compared to other backward states. This was true for the different
components of social sector as well. These figures are reflective of the low priority to social sector given by the
policy makers in the state and underscore the need of substantial improvement in levels of social sector
expenditure in U.P.

2. INTRODUCTION
• Gujarat is referred to as the Jewel of Western India
and has a population of up to 60 million.
• Gujarat was formed in 1960 when the erstwhile
bilingual Bombay State was split into two separate
states; Gujarati speaking Gujarat and Marathi
speaking Maharashtra.
• Gujarat has upto 33 districts and 249 talukas. Major
cities help in the Industrial growth while you would
always love the places to see here which are alot of
them and which boasts the tourism of Gujarat.
3. • Gujarat is one of the developed states in India.
State’s per capita income in 2000-01 was Rs.
12,975 (at 1993-94 prices), which was about
27 per cent higher than the national per
capita income of Rs. 10,254 in the same year.
• The per capita monthly consumption
expenditure in the state was Rs. 678.27 (in
1999-00), which was 25.4 per cent higher than
the national average.
5. Poverty Concepts and Definitions in India
The poverty line in India is defined as 'the percentage of the population below a
level of expenditure that enables them to consume a minimally defmed number of
calories per day.
The authors were the first to define the poverty line in terms of calories; they
defmed nutritional adequacy at 2250 calories per day.
This was in tum based on the estimated calorie intake requirement specified by the
Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR, 1968). The poverty line was defined
as the mid-point of the expenditure class that corresponded to the RDA level of
calorie intake. For 1973-74, this poverty line was derived for rural areas to be Rs.
49.09 and for urban areas as Rs. 56.64 per capita monthly expenditure.
. For estimating the poverty lines in the rural areas in subsequent years, a consumer
price index is worked out based on the CPIAL of food and non-food items36, based on
the actual all-India consumption basket of the poverty line households in 1973-74.
This was adjusted by using a cost ofliving index to reflect the differences in cost of
living on rural areas across states in the base year of the CPIAL series i.e. 1960-61
6. Official Poverty Data and Other Development Indicators in Gujarat
As in the entire country, poverty trends in Gujarat state according to official data have
shown a rapid downturn. However the apparent decline in poverty is not in keeping
with other parameters such as the rate of unemployment and foodgrain availability
The rate of decline in poverty is different in rural and urban areas, as figure 8.1
indicates. The decline in rural poverty according to official data has been slower
than that of urban poverty, both in absolute and percentage terms.
In fact rural poverty has increased slightly in absolute terms between 1993-94 and
2004-05, while the decline in terms of percentage has been marginal in this period. On
the other hand, the percentage of urban poor between 1987-88 and 2004- 05 shows a
marked decline.
The official data on poverty indicate a sharp decline, especially in the urban areas.
Rural poverty according to the official data has also declined, although slowly.
However other measures of poverty as well as other indicators of development do
not show such a positive situation in the state. Poverty measured by more broad-
based indicators (the BPL Census method) results in larger percentages of the
population being recorded as being poor. Apart from this, other indicators of
development in the state- specifically employment- indicate a decline in the state's
performance.
7. Gender Inequality in Terms of Health and Nutrition in India
Gender inequality is one of the major problems faced by the human society. It refers
to unequal and biased treatment towards female. Fortunately, over a period of time,
things have slowly changed. However, this is still a very serious and widespread
problem in society. Inequality is lack of equal distribution and Gender inequality is
unequal and biased treatment between male and female. In India discrimination
against girls begins before birth and spans the entire life. In 1901, the country had a
female to male sex ratio of 972 girls to every 1000 boys. In the 2001 census, it was
933 to 1000.
Gender Equality has many dimensions:
•Equal access to basic social services, including education and health.
•Equal opportunities for participation in political and economic decision-
making.
•Equal reward for equal work. Equal protection under the law.
•Elimination of discrimination by gender and violence against women.
•Equal rights of citizens in all areas of life, both public - such as the
workplace - and private such as the home.
8. Gujarat: State Initiatives
Government of Gujarat has formulated the State Policy for Gender Equity as "NARI
GAURAV NITI - 2006" for overall development and empowerment of women of the
state. In an effort to bring about equity and equality between women and men in the
development process to create a gender-just society, the Nari Gauvav Niti (GEP) has set
the following goals:
•Creating an enabling environment for enjoyment of all human rights and fundamental
freedom by women on equal basis with men in all spheres- personal, political, economic,
social, cultural and civil. This includes right to life, right to health care and quality life,
right to quality education, right to employment, equal remuneration, social security and
right to decision making .
•Shared responsibility for children and home.
•Mainstreaming gender perspective in the development processes, policies and
programmes .
•Strengthening participation of civil society, in particular women's groups, networks and
organizations .
•Eradicate all forms of violence against women and girl child .
•Strengthening legal systems to eliminate all forms of discrimination against women .
•Eliminate, step by step, prejudices as well as customary and other practices that are
gender discriminatory by active participation and involvement of both men and women.
10. India IHDI Report: Some Highlights
The average loss due to inequality is 32 percent at the All-India level. It is the
highest for Madhya Pradesh (36 percent) and Chhattisgarh (35 percent) and the
lowest for Kerala (17 percent). The loss due to inequality is higher than the
national level in the states of Bihar, Uttarakhand, Orissa, Jharkhand, Rajasthan,
Uttar Pradesh, Chhattisgarh and Madhya Pradesh.
Assam, Bihar, Gujarat (30%), Jharkhand, Karnataka, Orissa, Rajasthan, Tamil
Nadu and West Bengal improve their ranking after adjustment for inequality while
Andhra Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Haryana, Madhya Pradesh, Uttarakhand and Uttar
Pradesh lose their ranks.
The loss due to inequality is the highest with respect to education dimension
(43 percent), followed by health (34 percent) and income (16 percent). In
other words, the potential loss due to inequality is the highest in the
education sector. The situation is similar across states
India, with a global HDI value of 0.504, falls in the category of countries with
'Medium Human Development'. The loss in global HDI due to inequality is much
higher in India (32 percent) than in the world as a whole (22 percent) (UNDP, 2010;
p. 155).
11. Malnutrition in Gujarat
Malnutrition refers to deficiencies, excesses or imbalances in a person’s intake of
energy and/or nutrients. The term malnutrition covers 2 broad groups of
conditions. One is ‘undernutrition’—which includes stunting (low height for age),
wasting (low weight for height), underweight (low weight for age) and
micronutrient deficiencies or insufficiencies (a lack of important vitamins and
minerals). The other is overweight, obesity and diet-related noncommunicable
diseases (such as heart disease, stroke, diabetes and cancer).
The Gujarat development model of private sector-led growth had been
criticized for placing excessive emphasis on growth and less on human
development indices
The growth model is incompatible with human development
requirements.?
12. : not bad at all, if one looks at change rather than raw numbers. If one were to rank it,
Gujarat would figure somewhere in the middle of the national pecking order in terms of
child development, which would seem to partially bear out Narendra Modi's critics that
even with high growth, Gujarat does not seem to care as much for its children as it
should. The truth is the growth versus human development juxtaposition is flawed.
Gujarat is neither among the worst nor the best in terms of child malnourishment. In fact,
the real laggards are also high-growth states such as Andhra Pradesh (49 percent
malnourished), Bihar (82 percent), Haryana (43 percent), Rajasthan(43 percent), and,
surprisingly Sheila Dikshit's rich Delhi (50 percent).
But other high-growth states do well on malnutrition, with Maharashtra having
more than 77 percent normal kids (i.e. not malnourished), Madhya Pradesh 72
percent, and Uttarakhand 75 percent.
Clearly, Gujarat has topped in terms of the magnitude of improvements in addressing
malnutrition. But there is no reason for it to take it easy. The number of severely
malnourished children in this group of 38.77 percent is a high 4.56 percent for Gujarat.
Bihar has 26 percent severely malnourished children, but it will be poor consolation for
Gujarat, which surely has more resources to deal with the problem.
13. What is being done to address malnutrition?
The Decade aims to catalyse policy commitments that result in
measurable action to address all forms of malnutrition. The
aim is to ensure all people have access to healthier and more
sustainable diets to eradicate all forms of malnutrition
worldwide.
