What is the ‘Human Development Index’ rank of India in the world according to U.N.D.P. Human Development Report 2020 ?

120
122
125
131

The correct answer is (b). India’s HDI rank in 2020 was 122 out of 189 countries. This means that India is a medium human development country. The HDI is a composite index of life expectancy, education, and per capita income. India’s HDI value in 2020 was 0.645, which is an increase of 0.002 from 2019. India’s HDI rank has improved steadily over the past few decades, from 134 in 1990 to 122 in 2020. This improvement is due to a number of factors, including economic growth, improvements in health and education, and reductions in poverty. However, India still faces a number of challenges, including inequality, malnutrition, and lack of access to basic services. The government of India is working to address these challenges and improve the lives of all Indians.

Option (a) is incorrect because India’s HDI rank in 2020 was 122, not 120.

Option (c) is incorrect because India’s HDI rank in 2020 was 122, not 125.

Option (d) is incorrect because India’s HDI rank in 2020 was 122, not 131.
