The indicators must be aligned with Global Indicator Framework (by UN) and
National Indicator Framework (by MoSPI)
To align with the global and national priorities and data systems, the SDG India Index uses GIF and NIF as
the universe of indicators from where those with State-level figures are adopted
Only national-level data sources have been used, for uniformity of
methodology of data collection and inter-State comparability
Sources used: National survey reports, MIS portals of ministries, index reports by ministries
State departments are urged to update/reconcile data in their corresponding Union Ministries'
dashboards/portals
State DES can play an important role in reconciling State-level data in the various ministries' survey reports
88% of indicators used in 2020-21 are outcome-based; only 12% are scheme-
related
Only 14 out of 115 indicators are related to various central schemes. The others are outcome indicators such
as "percentage of HHs with at least one member covered by health insurance", "percentage of HHs living in
katcha houses" etc.
Flagship schemes covered: MGNREGA, PMMVY, NFSA, SBM (U), SBM (G), Saubhagya, PMJDY, UjalaView entire presentation
