What is the rank of India in Human Development Index according to the Human development Report released by U.N.D.P. 10 July, 2014, which covers 187 countries?

The correct answer is (d). India ranked 73rd in the Human Development Index (HDI) in 2014, which covers 187 countries. The HDI is a composite statistic of life expectancy, education, and per capita income indicators, which are used to rank countries into four tiers of human development. India’s HDI value for 2014 was 0.609, which put it in the medium human development category. India’s HDI has been increasing steadily over the past few decades, and it is expected to continue to improve in the future.

Option (a) is incorrect because India’s HDI rank in 2014 was 73rd, not 140th. Option (b) is incorrect because India’s HDI rank in 2014 was 73rd, not 135th. Option (c) is incorrect because India’s HDI rank in 2014 was 73rd, not 130th.
