-The Times of India&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even as the opposition accused the government of tampering with poverty figures, Planning Commission stuck to its stand that poverty had declined by 7.3% between 2004-05 and 2009-10, a period when the Congress-led UPA has been in power.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You can put whatever poverty line you want, the fact is... the decline in poverty is twice the decline in the previous 11 years,&amp;quot; Planning Commission deputy chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia said on Tuesday.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ahluwalia argued that the poverty line was meant to reflect conditions of &amp;quot;absolute poverty&amp;quot; in the country. &amp;quot;This poverty line is not the line that we think a person can comfortably survive... the poverty line has been identified as a rock-bottom, bare subsistence kind of line,&amp;quot; he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The panel also clarified that food subsidies and other entitlements would not be linked to the new poverty line. &amp;quot;Entitlements for food subsidy benefits will not be linked to the number of persons estimated to be below the official poverty line,&amp;quot; it said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Earlier in the day, the plan panel faced criticism inside and outside Parliament for its description of poor with opposition parties saying it was making a &amp;quot;dishonest&amp;quot; attempt to conceal reality through &amp;quot;fraudulent&amp;quot; estimates.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Faced with the opposition barrage over its Rs 28 a day formulation, the commission admitted that there was serious discrepancy in NSSO data and the national accounts data which led to pegging of poverty line at Rs 28.65 per capita daily consumption in cities and Rs 22.42 in rural areas. &amp;quot;I do believe that the discrepancy between the consumer survey and national accounts is a serious statistical problem,&amp;quot; Ahluwalia said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The plan panel&#039;s figures released on Monday suggested overall poverty levels fell from 37.2 percent in 2004-05 to 29.8 percent in 2009-10. These are based on the daily per capita consumption of Rs 28.65 in urban cities and Rs 22.42 in rural areas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The commission&#039;s poverty data was based on the 66th round of the National Sample Survey (2009-10) on household consumer expenditure survey. The national accounts, which provide data for national income, is prepared by the Central Statistical Organisation (CSO).&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
Faced with the opposition barrage over its Rs 28 a day formulation, the commission admitted that there was serious discrepancy in NSSO data and the national accounts data which led to pegging of poverty line at Rs 28.65 per capita daily consumption in cities and Rs 22.42 in rural areas. &amp;quot;I do believe that the discrepancy between the consumer survey and national accounts is a serious statistical problem,&amp;quot; Ahluwalia said.&lt;br /&gt;

These are based on the daily per capita consumption of Rs 28.65 in urban cities and Rs 22.42 in rural areas.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The commission&#039;s poverty data was based on the 66th round of the National Sample Survey (2009-10) on household consumer expenditure survey.

&lt;br /&gt;
Even as the opposition accused the government of tampering with poverty figures, Planning Commission stuck to its stand that poverty had declined by 7.3% between 2004-05 and 2009-10, a period when the Congress-led UPA has been in power.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You can put whatever poverty line you want, the fact is... the decline in poverty is twice the decline in the previous 11 years,&amp;quot; Planning Commission deputy chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia said on Tuesday.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ahluwalia argued that the poverty line was meant to reflect conditions of &amp;quot;absolute poverty&amp;quot; in the country. &amp;quot;This poverty line is not the line that we think a person can comfortably survive... the poverty line has been identified as a rock-bottom, bare subsistence kind of line,&amp;quot; he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The panel also clarified that food subsidies and other entitlements would not be linked to the new poverty line. &amp;quot;Entitlements for food subsidy benefits will not be linked to the number of persons estimated to be below the official poverty line,&amp;quot; it said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Earlier in the day, the plan panel faced criticism inside and outside Parliament for its description of poor with opposition parties saying it was making a &amp;quot;dishonest&amp;quot; attempt to conceal reality through &amp;quot;fraudulent&amp;quot; estimates.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Faced with the opposition barrage over its Rs 28 a day formulation, the commission admitted that there was serious discrepancy in NSSO data and the national accounts data which led to pegging of poverty line at Rs 28.65 per capita daily consumption in cities and Rs 22.42 in rural areas. &amp;quot;I do believe that the discrepancy between the consumer survey and national accounts is a serious statistical problem,&amp;quot; Ahluwalia said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The plan panel&#039;s figures released on Monday suggested overall poverty levels fell from 37.2 percent in 2004-05 to 29.8 percent in 2009-10. These are based on the daily per capita consumption of Rs 28.65 in urban cities and Rs 22.42 in rural areas.&lt;br /&gt;

-The Times of India&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Even as the opposition accused the government of tampering with poverty figures, Planning Commission stuck to its stand that poverty had declined by 7.3% between 2004-05 and 2009-10, a period when the Congress-led UPA has been in power.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;quot;You can put whatever poverty line you want, the fact is... the decline in poverty is twice the decline in the previous 11 years,&amp;quot; Planning Commission deputy chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia said on Tuesday.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ahluwalia argued that the poverty line was meant to reflect conditions of &amp;quot;absolute poverty&amp;quot; in the country. &amp;quot;This poverty line is not the line that we think a person can comfortably survive... the poverty line has been identified as a rock-bottom, bare subsistence kind of line,&amp;quot; he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The panel also clarified that food subsidies and other entitlements would not be linked to the new poverty line. &amp;quot;Entitlements for food subsidy benefits will not be linked to the number of persons estimated to be below the official poverty line,&amp;quot; it said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Earlier in the day, the plan panel faced criticism inside and outside Parliament for its description of poor with opposition parties saying it was making a &amp;quot;dishonest&amp;quot; attempt to conceal reality through &amp;quot;fraudulent&amp;quot; estimates.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Faced with the opposition barrage over its Rs 28 a day formulation, the commission admitted that there was serious discrepancy in NSSO data and the national accounts data which led to pegging of poverty line at Rs 28.65 per capita daily consumption in cities and Rs 22.42 in rural areas. &amp;quot;I do believe that the discrepancy between the consumer survey and national accounts is a serious statistical problem,&amp;quot; Ahluwalia said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The plan panel&#039;s figures released on Monday suggested overall poverty levels fell from 37.2 percent in 2004-05 to 29.8 percent in 2009-10. These are based on the daily per capita consumption of Rs 28.65 in urban cities and Rs 22.42 in rural areas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The commission&#039;s poverty data was based on the 66th round of the National Sample Survey (2009-10) on household consumer expenditure survey. The national accounts, which provide data for national income, is prepared by the Central Statistical Organisation (CSO).&lt;br /&gt;

Ahluwalia argued that the poverty line was meant to reflect conditions of &quot;absolute poverty&quot; in the country. &quot;This poverty line is not the line that we think a person can comfortably survive... the poverty line has been identified as a rock-bottom, bare subsistence kind of line,&quot; he said.<br />
<br />
The panel also clarified that food subsidies and other entitlements would not be linked to the new poverty line. &quot;Entitlements for food subsidy benefits will not be linked to the number of persons estimated to be below the official poverty line,&quot; it said.<br />
<br />
Earlier in the day, the plan panel faced criticism inside and outside Parliament for its description of poor with opposition parties saying it was making a &quot;dishonest&quot; attempt to conceal reality through &quot;fraudulent&quot; estimates.<br />
<br />
Faced with the opposition barrage over its Rs 28 a day formulation, the commission admitted that there was serious discrepancy in NSSO data and the national accounts data which led to pegging of poverty line at Rs 28.65 per capita daily consumption in cities and Rs 22.42 in rural areas. &quot;I do believe that the discrepancy between the consumer survey and national accounts is a serious statistical problem,&quot; Ahluwalia said.<br />
<br />
The plan panel's figures released on Monday suggested overall poverty levels fell from 37.2 percent in 2004-05 to 29.8 percent in 2009-10. These are based on the daily per capita consumption of Rs 28.65 in urban cities and Rs 22.42 in rural areas.<br />
<br />
The commission's poverty data was based on the 66th round of the National Sample Survey (2009-10) on household consumer expenditure survey. The national accounts, which provide data for national income, is prepared by the Central Statistical Organisation (CSO).<br />

Plan panel sticks to figures, says poverty came down 7.3% in 10 years

-The Times of India Even as the opposition accused the government of tampering with poverty figures, Planning Commission stuck to its stand that poverty had declined by 7.3% between 2004-05 and 2009-10, a period when the Congress-led UPA has been in power. "You can put whatever poverty line you want, the fact is... the decline in poverty is twice the decline in the previous 11 years," Planning Commission deputy chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia said on Tuesday. Ahluwalia argued that the poverty line was meant to reflect conditions of "absolute poverty" in the country. "This poverty line is not the line that we think a person can comfortably survive... the poverty line has been identified as a rock-bottom, bare subsistence kind of line," he said.

"Entitlements for food subsidy benefits will not be linked to the number of persons estimated to be below the official poverty line," it said.
