'The number of poor people in India fell by about 415 million between 2005-06
and 2019-21, a "historic change" and a demonstration that the Sustainable
Development Goal target of reducing at least by half the proportion of men,
women and children of all ages living in poverty by 2030 is possible to
achieve, even at a large scale, according to the UN.
The new Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) released on Monday by the United
Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the Oxford Poverty and Human
Development Initiative (OPHI) at the University of Oxford said that in India,
415 million people exited poverty between 2005/06 and 2019/21.
It demonstrates that the "Sustainable Development Goal target 1.2 of reducing
at least by half the proportion of men, women and children of all ages living
in poverty in all its dimensions according to national definitions by 2030 is
possible to achieve - and at scale", it said.'
