World Bank Income Classification:Low Income
The World Bank classifies economies for analytical purposes into four income groups: low, lower-middle, upper-middle, and high income. For this purpose it uses gross national income (GNI) per capita data in U.S. dollars, converted from local currency using the World Bank Atlas method, which is applied to smooth exchange rate fluctuations.
Least Developed Country:Yes
Since 1971, the United Nations has recognized LDCs as a category of States that are deemed highly disadvantaged in their development process, for structural, historical and also geographical reasons. Three criteria are used: per capita income, human assets, and economic vulnerability.
Gender Inequality Index:0.575
GII is a composite metric of gender inequality using three dimensions: reproductive health, empowerment and the labour market. A low GII value indicates low inequality between women and men, and vice-versa.
Gender Development Index:0.723
GDI measures gender inequalities in achievement in three basic dimensions of human development: health, education, and command over economic resources.

In 2022, UN Women provided technical assistance to the National Institute of Open Schooling (NIOS), Government of India to develop and launch of the Inclusive Education policy. The policy document recognizes the contribution of UN Women in the acknowledgement section. This policy will ensure that more women and girls are able to access NIOS to complete their formal education while bridging the current gender gap in enrolment at NIOS, which stands at 33 percent. Furthermore, it provides an opportunity and space for non-binary persons and young adults to complete their schooling or vocational courses. NIOS has a cumulative enrolment of 4.3 million during the last 5 years, therefore, the policy will have a positive effect on future learners. UN Women reviewed NIOS's existing Gender Policy and developed and submitted the revised Gender Policy along with the Gender Action Plan for its implementation for approval by NIOS. UN Women introduced employability skills curriculum in 3 Government Industrial Training Institutes, 2 Government polytechnics and 1 Government Degree college to equip over 750 young girls with employability skills for decent job and entrepreneurship opportunities.Disclaimer and notes
