&lt;br /&gt;
The Planning Commission will constitute an expert group in three months to revisit the methodology for estimating poverty amid demand for removal of its Deputy Chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia for pegging the poverty line at Rs 28.65 daily per capita consumption for cities and Rs 22.42 in rural areas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The Government had taken a decision to set up a technical group to revisit the methodology for estimating poverty in a manner which is consistent with current reality,&amp;rdquo; Minister of State for Planning Ashwani Kumar told reporters on Thursday.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The technical group constituted will also have the benefit of socio-economic and caste economic census (SECC) 2011 data, which will enable the Government to purposively revisit poverty estimates in the country,&amp;rdquo; he added further. The group will be constituted in the next three months for which the decision was taken in December last year by the Government, he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After the controversy on poverty benchmark of Rs 32 for urban India and Rs 26 for rural, in a joint statement Deputy Chairman of Planning Commission Montek Singh Ahluwalia and Minister of Rural Development Jairam Ramesh had said that the Government of India will take into account multiple dimensions of deprivation based on the indicators that are being collected through the SECC, 2011 for arriving at specific entitlements that rural households will receive under various central Government programmes and schemes. The present state-wise poverty estimates using the Planning Commission methodology will NOT be used to impose any ceilings on the number of households to be included in different Government programmes and schemes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Commission on Tuesday released poverty data based on the 66th round of the National Sample Survey (2009-10) data on household consumer expenditure survey. As per the Commission&amp;rsquo;s estimates the poverty ratio has been pegged at 29.8 per cent in 2009-10, down from 37.2 per cent in 2004-05. 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;
These estimates of poverty are based on methodology recommended by the Tendulkar Committee, which includes spending on health and education, besides the calorie intake.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The issue of poverty estimates has been subject matter of public debate in and outside Parliament. Government respects and is fully conscious of the sensitivity of the people on this issue,&amp;rdquo; Kumar said.

The Planning Commission will constitute an expert group in three months to revisit the methodology for estimating poverty amid demand for removal of its Deputy Chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia for pegging the poverty line at Rs 28.65 daily per capita consumption for cities and Rs 22.42 in rural areas.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The Government had taken a decision to set up a technical group to revisit the methodology for estimating poverty in a manner which is consistent with current reality,&amp;rdquo; Minister of State for Planning Ashwani Kumar told reporters on Thursday.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The technical group constituted will also have the benefit of socio-economic and caste economic census (SECC) 2011 data, which will enable the Government to purposively revisit poverty estimates in the country,&amp;rdquo; he added further. The group will be constituted in the next three months for which the decision was taken in December last year by the Government, he said.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After the controversy on poverty benchmark of Rs 32 for urban India and Rs 26 for rural, in a joint statement Deputy Chairman of Planning Commission Montek Singh Ahluwalia and Minister of Rural Development Jairam Ramesh had said that the Government of India will take into account multiple dimensions of deprivation based on the indicators that are being collected through the SECC, 2011 for arriving at specific entitlements that rural households will receive under various central Government programmes and schemes. The present state-wise poverty estimates using the Planning Commission methodology will NOT be used to impose any ceilings on the number of households to be included in different Government programmes and schemes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Commission on Tuesday released poverty data based on the 66th round of the National Sample Survey (2009-10) data on household consumer expenditure survey. As per the Commission&amp;rsquo;s estimates the poverty ratio has been pegged at 29.8 per cent in 2009-10, down from 37.2 per cent in 2004-05. 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;
These estimates of poverty are based on methodology recommended by the Tendulkar Committee, which includes spending on health and education, besides the calorie intake.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;ldquo;The issue of poverty estimates has been subject matter of public debate in and outside Parliament. Government respects and is fully conscious of the sensitivity of the people on this issue,&amp;rdquo; Kumar said.

Plan panel to set up expert group to revisit criteria for poverty

-The Pioneer The Planning Commission will constitute an expert group in three months to revisit the methodology for estimating poverty amid demand for removal of its Deputy Chairman Montek Singh Ahluwalia for pegging the poverty line at Rs 28.65 daily per capita consumption for cities and Rs 22.42 in rural areas. “The Government had taken a decision to set up a technical group to revisit the methodology for estimating poverty in a manner which is consistent with current reality,” Minister of State for Planning Ashwani Kumar told reporters on Thursday. “The technical group constituted will also have the benefit of socio-economic and caste economic census (SECC) 2011 data, which will enable the Government to purposively revisit poverty estimates in the country,” he added further. The group will be constituted in the next three months for which the decision was taken in December last year by the Government, he said. After the controversy on poverty benchmark of Rs 32 for urban India and Rs 26 for rural, in a joint statement Deputy Chairman of Planning Commission Montek Singh Ahluwalia and Minister of Rural Development Jairam Ramesh had said that the Government of India will take into account multiple dimensions of deprivation based on the indicators that are being collected through the SECC, 2011 for arriving at specific entitlements that rural households will receive under various central Government programmes and schemes. The present state-wise poverty estimates using the Planning Commission methodology will NOT be used to impose any ceilings on the number of households to be included in different Government programmes and schemes. The Commission on Tuesday released poverty data based on the 66th round of the National Sample Survey (2009-10) data on household consumer expenditure survey. As per the Commission’s estimates the poverty ratio has been pegged at 29.8 per cent in 2009-10, down from 37.2 per cent in 2004-05. These are based on the daily per capita consumption of Rs 28.65 in urban cities and Rs 22.42 in rural areas. These estimates of poverty are based on methodology recommended by the Tendulkar Committee, which includes spending on health and education, besides the calorie intake. “The issue of poverty estimates has been subject matter of public debate in and outside Parliament. Government respects and is fully conscious of the sensitivity of the people on this issue,” Kumar said.
