Good evening Mr Shekhar Gupta, iam an avid follower of print and especially cut the clutter but this is first comment, at the outset I want to compliment you on your style of journalism and the clarity, depth and level of your journalism, I just wanted to bring to your notice that a pakistani establishment stooge who runs a KZbin channel across our western borders has launched a attack on you and the print, comparing him with you is like chalk and cheese, he relies on propaganda, fake news, Google searches and hogwash. Please give a befitting reply to him which he richly deserves. Keep up the good work. Regards

I know you're just reading from the report, but again you're missing the point about Hindi Heartland states, particularly about Bihar. I would write to you in detail some day, and hope you'd publish that verbatim, but this report is just plain old babudom. I can understand how people like Jairam Ramesh, who are just as useless as those babus, don't get anything. But, I'm often surprised how an intelligent person like SG could not get it either; how could SG have consistently miss the point about Bihar throughout his career!! Hindi word for such naive understanding of Jairam Ramesh is "Purvagrah", but can't even say that about SG. This is not to say Bihar is not performing bad, but your (and most others') analysis of why Bihar is performing bad is inaccurate.

Chennai also tops in medical infrastructure and health care. Tamil Nadu is also educational hub for engineering and medical colleges with very few states matching its capability. Also It beats the heck out of Kerala in terms of industrial development. All with a low cost of living compared to Maharashtra, Delhi and Karnataka. Kudos Tamil Nadu. The southern gem.

Gujarat Model and Kerala model is being mixed to form Tamil Nadu. So I think the best model is Tamil Nadu model. Low unemployment rate unlike Kerala and like Gujarat but at the same time better human development than Gujarat and like Kerala. We need a mix of Kerala model and Gujarat Model. Both are imperfect. But mixing will help . Kerala's one of the best states to settle down when you are old. The human development is very high there and you can see that there. But for Youth it is not a good place. Gujarat has too many extremes. As you exit Gujarat's cities you can't differentiate it from MP or Rajasthan. The industries begin to disappear, roads become rarer and the poverty begins to show up. While Kerala's villages don't even look like villages. There are roads, health centres, schools. Pretty much all basic facilities but the youth have no option but to leave the state for jobs.

The map showing education says the root cause of most rotten social indicators. First provide education for all kids and I believe it should be criminalized if kids are not sent to school. The nutrition aspect of kids could also be fixed with better school meals and we could have atleast yearly weight, height and eyesight monitored, and vaccination drives for seasonal viruses also centered around schools. I don't know if they have just recategorized malnutrition with stunted growth, but I doubt it's the same and it deserves a separate survey. We should also start to live in 2021 and have a very comprehensive sexual health education covering everything from concent, sex-gender-sexuality, hygiene, health of reproductive organs , contraception, stds, definitely education about pregnancy related pre and postpartum issues. Maybe all of that would organically cut down the fertility rate and too young and dangerous pregnancies. We need more educated and well equipped parents for a healthy next generation, so maybe we should start thinking about providing parental classes via ASHA workers, rather than raising kids solely relying on tradition

The cpim government did land reforms but couldn't ensure human capital development like schools or hospitals(naxalism also contributed to destruction).

Though for a Himachi like me this is a proud feeling but then this was expected and ranking atleast of first 5 as I remember was same when India Today used to do this exercise except now Babus are taking credit . I don't know why you are so excited .

The credit for laying foundation goes to Dr Y S Parmar the first and longest serving CM

[@drrn5891]

Yes totally agree. As someone from health department i can confirm that healthcare delivery is far better than other rural areas of india, still not the best but runs the national programs well. Infrastructure because of the geographical difficulties pose us a challenge also the lack of employment opportunities in the state. Otherwise it's the best state in the country to be in as the statsitics imply.

Himachal is going to be no. 1 very soon because only thing it lagging was industry.. it is very rapidly industrialising especially lower belt the Kangra una and baddi area middle region is doing good in tourism and higher hills in agriculture .. roads are getting better ..almost every home has water connection , 24 hours electricity, very good government schools , basic healthcare is good although high end healthcare infrastructure is not that good .
