$ Poverty Line has been
computed as per Tendulkar Method on Mixed Reference Period (MRP).
Notes: (1) The statewise poverty line and number and
percentage of Population below povert line in this table are based on Tendulkar
Methodology released by Press Note on Poverty Estimates, 2011-12 in July, 2014
by the NITI Ayog (then Planning Commission). (2) Population as on 1st March,
2012 has been used for estimating number
of persons below poverty line. (3) Poverty line of Tamilnadu has been used for A
& N Islands. (4) Urban Poverty line of Punjab has been used
for both rural and urban areas of
Chandigarh. (5) Poverty line of Maharashtrais has been used for Dadra &
Nagar Haveli. (6) Poverty line of Goa has been used for Daman & Diu. (7)
Poverty line of Kerala has been used for Lakshadweep.
Remark: The total population of a State or Union Territory
was estimated by using the factors 'No. of population below poverty line' and
'percentage of population below poverty line' of that State or Union Territory,
then percentage below poverty line of a Circle was calculated after aggregating the
'populations below poverty lines' and 'total populations' of the States and
Union Territories falling under
jurisdiction of the concerned Circle.
