&lt;em&gt;Even better performing States have not fared well in achieving gender equality&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/em&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The NITI Aayog&amp;rsquo;s Sustainable Development Goals Index for 2019, released on Monday, does not reveal any surprising information. The South&amp;rsquo;s Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Karnataka are joined by Himachal Pradesh, Sikkim and Goa as the best performers while the northern/north-central and north-eastern States have been laggardly in achieving the U.N.-mandated goals by 2030. Poor performers such as Uttar Pradesh have shown discernible advances in the indices &amp;mdash; measured between 2018-19 &amp;mdash; especially in adopting cleaner energy and improving sanitation. But the regional divide is stark in basic livelihood goals such as &amp;ldquo;eradication of poverty&amp;rdquo;, and &amp;ldquo;good health and well being&amp;rdquo; or even in measures such as &amp;ldquo;industry, innovation and infrastructure&amp;rdquo;. This points to variances in both State governance and in administrative structures and implementation of welfare policies. The South, led by Kerala and Tamil Nadu, has done much more in orienting administrative institutions to deliver on basic welfare, leading to actions on health care, education, poverty eradication and hunger, with a governance structure tuned to competitively monitoring actions on these fronts. The converse is true of northern States &amp;mdash; Bihar and Uttar Pradesh &amp;mdash; where outcomes have remained relatively poor despite there not being much of a difference in the governance structure. The obvious answer to the puzzle could be the presence of historical socio-political movements that have resulted in greater circulation of elites in power and which have addressed issues related to welfare more thoroughly in the South &amp;mdash; Kerala and T.N in particular. Yet even these States need to go further in reaching the UN&amp;rsquo;s SDGs and achieving the living standards of both the first world and other developing nations.&lt;br /&gt;

The South&rsquo;s Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Karnataka are joined by Himachal Pradesh, Sikkim and Goa as the best performers while the northern/north-central and north-eastern States have been laggardly in achieving the U.N.-mandated goals by 2030. Poor performers such as Uttar Pradesh have shown discernible advances in the indices &mdash; measured between 2018-19 &mdash; especially in adopting cleaner energy and improving sanitation. But the regional divide is stark in basic livelihood goals such as &ldquo;eradication of poverty&rdquo;, and &ldquo;good health and well being&rdquo; or even in measures such as &ldquo;industry, innovation and infrastructure&rdquo;. This points to variances in both State governance and in administrative structures and implementation of welfare policies. The South, led by Kerala and Tamil Nadu, has done much more in orienting administrative institutions to deliver on basic welfare, leading to actions on health care, education, poverty eradication and hunger, with a governance structure tuned to competitively monitoring actions on these fronts. The converse is true of northern States &mdash; Bihar and Uttar Pradesh &mdash; where outcomes have remained relatively poor despite there not being much of a difference in the governance structure. The obvious answer to the puzzle could be the presence of historical socio-political movements that have resulted in greater circulation of elites in power and which have addressed issues related to welfare more thoroughly in the South &mdash; Kerala and T.N in particular.

The South&amp;rsquo;s Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Karnataka are joined by Himachal Pradesh, Sikkim and Goa as the best performers while the northern/north-central and north-eastern States have been laggardly in achieving the U.N.-mandated goals by 2030. Poor performers such as Uttar Pradesh have shown discernible advances in the indices &amp;mdash; measured between 2018-19 &amp;mdash; especially in adopting cleaner energy and improving sanitation. But the regional divide is stark in basic livelihood goals such as &amp;ldquo;eradication of poverty&amp;rdquo;, and &amp;ldquo;good health and well being&amp;rdquo; or even in measures such as &amp;ldquo;industry, innovation and infrastructure&amp;rdquo;. This points to variances in both State governance and in administrative structures and implementation of welfare policies. The South, led by Kerala and Tamil Nadu, has done much more in orienting administrative institutions to deliver on basic welfare, leading to actions on health care, education, poverty eradication and hunger, with a governance structure tuned to competitively monitoring actions on these fronts. The converse is true of northern States &amp;mdash; Bihar and Uttar Pradesh &amp;mdash; where outcomes have remained relatively poor despite there not being much of a difference in the governance structure. The obvious answer to the puzzle could be the presence of historical socio-political movements that have resulted in greater circulation of elites in power and which have addressed issues related to welfare more thoroughly in the South &amp;mdash; Kerala and T.N in particular. Yet even these States need to go further in reaching the UN&amp;rsquo;s SDGs and achieving the living standards of both the first world and other developing nations.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.thehindu.com/opinion/editorial/a-persisting-variance-the-hindu-editorial-on-sustainable-goals-index/article30453785.ece?homepage=true&amp;amp;fbclid=IwAR3TyBIVPSsPilpZlJ0w7snvBGmr3DjvZPC143vbqSHMHK85MCMxX8Hh0kw&quot; title=&quot;https://www.thehindu.com/opinion/editorial/a-persisting-variance-the-hindu-editorial-on-sustainable-goals-index/article30453785.ece?homepage=true&amp;amp;fbclid=IwAR3TyBIVPSsPilpZlJ0w7snvBGmr3DjvZPC143vbqSHMHK85MCMxX8Hh0kw&quot;&gt;click here&lt;/a&gt; to read more. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&#039;

The NITI Aayog&amp;rsquo;s Sustainable Development Goals Index for 2019, released on Monday, does not reveal any surprising information. The South&amp;rsquo;s Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Karnataka are joined by Himachal Pradesh, Sikkim and Goa as the best performers while the northern/north-central and north-eastern States have been laggardly in achieving the U.N.-mandated goals by 2030. Poor performers such as Uttar Pradesh have shown discernible advances in the indices &amp;mdash; measured between 2018-19 &amp;mdash; especially in adopting cleaner energy and improving sanitation. But the regional divide is stark in basic livelihood goals such as &amp;ldquo;eradication of poverty&amp;rdquo;, and &amp;ldquo;good health and well being&amp;rdquo; or even in measures such as &amp;ldquo;industry, innovation and infrastructure&amp;rdquo;. This points to variances in both State governance and in administrative structures and implementation of welfare policies. The South, led by Kerala and Tamil Nadu, has done much more in orienting administrative institutions to deliver on basic welfare, leading to actions on health care, education, poverty eradication and hunger, with a governance structure tuned to competitively monitoring actions on these fronts. The converse is true of northern States &amp;mdash; Bihar and Uttar Pradesh &amp;mdash; where outcomes have remained relatively poor despite there not being much of a difference in the governance structure. The obvious answer to the puzzle could be the presence of historical socio-political movements that have resulted in greater circulation of elites in power and which have addressed issues related to welfare more thoroughly in the South &amp;mdash; Kerala and T.N in particular. Yet even these States need to go further in reaching the UN&amp;rsquo;s SDGs and achieving the living standards of both the first world and other developing nations.&lt;br /&gt;

The South, led by Kerala and Tamil Nadu, has done much more in orienting administrative institutions to deliver on basic welfare, leading to actions on health care, education, poverty eradication and hunger, with a governance structure tuned to competitively monitoring actions on these fronts. The converse is true of northern States &mdash; Bihar and Uttar Pradesh &mdash; where outcomes have remained relatively poor despite there not being much of a difference in the governance structure. The obvious answer to the puzzle could be the presence of historical socio-political movements that have resulted in greater circulation of elites in power and which have addressed issues related to welfare more thoroughly in the South &mdash; Kerala and T.N in particular. Yet even these States need to go further in reaching the UN&rsquo;s SDGs and achieving the living standards of both the first world and other developing nations.<br />

A persisting variance: On sustainable goals index

-The Hindu Even better performing States have not fared well in achieving gender equality The NITI Aayog’s Sustainable Development Goals Index for 2019, released on Monday, does not reveal any surprising information. The South’s Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Karnataka are joined by Himachal Pradesh, Sikkim and Goa as the best performers while the northern/north-central and north-eastern States have been laggardly in achieving the U.N.-mandated goals by 2030. Poor performers such as Uttar Pradesh have shown discernible advances in the indices — measured between 2018-19 — especially in adopting cleaner energy and improving sanitation. But the regional divide is stark in basic livelihood goals such as “eradication of poverty”, and “good health and well being” or even in measures such as “industry, innovation and infrastructure”. This points to variances in both State governance and in administrative structures and implementation of welfare policies. The South, led by Kerala and Tamil Nadu, has done much more in orienting administrative institutions to deliver on basic welfare, leading to actions on health care, education, poverty eradication and hunger, with a governance structure tuned to competitively monitoring actions on these fronts. The converse is true of northern States — Bihar and Uttar Pradesh — where outcomes have remained relatively poor despite there not being much of a difference in the governance structure. The obvious answer to the puzzle could be the presence of historical socio-political movements that have resulted in greater circulation of elites in power and which have addressed issues related to welfare more thoroughly in the South — Kerala and T.N in particular. Yet even these States need to go further in reaching the UN’s SDGs and achieving the living standards of both the first world and other developing nations. Please click here to read more.
