MP’s State Human Development Report (SHDR) and performance (150 words) Human development has been defined as the process of ‘enlarging the range of people’s choices.Forthcoming 12th five year plan is expected to deepen and sharpen the issue of inequality in the state.There is consistence improvement in terms of human development with the human development index going up from 0.394 in 2001 and  0.451 in 2011. Human development is recognized by state government both as an end and as a mean of progress. On the one hand, it meets the present needs of human beings, while on other; it enables the society to achieve higher level of growth in the future. Development is thus, more than just the expansion of income and wealth, about creating an enabling environment in which people can develop their full potential and can lead productive, creative lives in accord with their needs and interests. Human development concept is a multidimensional paradigm which simultaneously aims at several values. It is action-oriented and practical in seeking to change the conditions of life and expand options to increase choices in the lives of human beings. Despite having made substantial progress on many fronts we do have our area of concern as indices of health and poverty still continue to be unsatisfactory, similarly economic growth has also remained little lower than the national average. Each year since 1990 the Human Development Report has published the Human Development Index. The HDI represents a push for a broader definition of  well-being and provides a composite measure of three basic dimensions of human development: health, education and income. State Human Development Reports (SHDRs), have made an important contribution in terms of:

(a) benchmarking the attainment of state on human development;

(b) providing, based on rigorous research, policy and programme options for more effective and efficient human development action; and

(c) assessing the extent to which these key recommendations are being mainstreamed in the development plans.

Madhya Pradesh has to its credit the achievement of being the First state in the World to produce State Human Development Report (SHDR). In terms of Human Development Index (HDI) with an index value of 37, the State lags behind the all India average of 45. Taking into account the health indices the situation is not well. The Infant Mortality Rate for Madhya Pradesh has been estimated by SRS at 62 in 2010. The rural IMR is 67, while urban IMR is 42. The Net Enrolment Ratio (NER) for primary and middle level is about 100 per cent. There has been a significant increased during the eleventh plan period. The per capita income of Madhya Pradesh has increased from Rs, 15442/- IN 2004 TO Rs. 22460/- in the year 2010-11. Per capita Income at constant prices has grown at the rate of 6.64% and 6.82% per annum for the state and national level respectively during 2004-05 to 2010-11. The primary sector growth, which employs nearly 70% of the population, has seen very wide fluctuations across last 10 yrs. The principal reason for such wide variation is over-dependence of agriculture on monsoons. While growth in tertiary sector has been more even & constantly positive, it tends to move with growth rates of secondary sector.
