In the aftermath of COVID-19, India’s rank on Human Development Index has slipped from 130 in 2020 to 132 in 2021. The shift is also seen as a global fall with ninety percent of countries registering a fall in their HDI value in 2020 or 2021.
The numbers also suggest a reverse pattern in global gains with the progress toward sustainable Development goals taking a backseat in countries across the world owing to the pandemic
According to a report released by United Nations Development Programme, India’s HDI value during 2021 was at 0.6333, even lower than the world average of 0.732. In the year 2020, the percentage was slightly up at 0.642, though the progress was still slim as compared to the pre-corona days. In 2019, India’s HDI value was registered at 0.645.
UNDP, which tracks the human development index has blamed a global drop in life expectancy, which has dwindled from 72.8 years in 2019 to 71.4 years in 2021.
“The last two years have had a devastating impact on billions of people worldwide when crises like Covid-19 and the war in Ukraine hit back-to-back and interacted with sweeping social and economic shifts and dangerous planetary changes,” the UNDP statement said.

India's rank falls in Human Development Index; see Pakistan, China, Sri Lanka's ranks

India falls further on HDI, now ranks 132 as COVID-19 reverses global growth

Sri Lanka (73), China (79), Bangladesh (129), and Bhutan (127) ranked above India, while Pakistan (161), Nepal (143), and Myanmar (149) ranked below.

Amid the Covid-19 pandemic, India's rank in the Human Development Index has fallen from 131 out of 189 countries in 2020, to 132 out of 191 countries in 2021. India's HDI value fell from 0.645 in 2019, to 0.633 in 2021. The report released by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) said that like global trends, India's drop in HDI can be attributed to falling life expectancy - from 69.7 to 67.2 years. Human Development is a measure of a nation's health, education, and average income. It is calculated using four indicators &ndash; life expectancy at birth, mean years of schooling, expected years of schooling, and the Gross National Income (GNI) per capita. However, some of India's neighbours like Bangladesh and Bhutan bucked the trend and registered an improvement. Sri Lanka (73), China (79), Bangladesh (129), and Bhutan (127) ranked above India, while Pakistan (161), Nepal (143), and Myanmar (149) ranked below.
