Overall, we rate New Delhi Television Limited (NDTV) Right-Center Biased and questionable due to the promotion of propaganda, poor sourcing techniques, a lack of transparency and several failed fact checks. (M. Huitsing 3/18/2018) Updated (12/30/2024)

Also this is a word-for-word reprint of an article published on the Indo-Asian News Service:

In a significant feat under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's visionary government
Def agree
Thanks for this.
Easy to say it went down when you ignore the new cutoff...
The World Bank's assessment, based on the $3.00 per day international poverty line (using 2021 prices), shows a broad-based reduction across both rural and urban areas.
At $2.15 daily consumption - the earlier poverty line based on 2017 prices - the share of Indians living in extreme poverty is 2.3 per cent, which is significantly lower than 16.2 per cent in 2011-12, according to the World Bank's estimates.
The number of people living below the $2.15-per-day poverty line is recorded at 33.66 million in 2022, down from 205.93 million in 2011, as per the latest data.
First it gives the percentages from 2011 and 2023 using prices adjusted for 2021, $3/day (27.1% and 5.3% - a decrease of 27%, aka the headline), and then it compares that to the percentages from 2011 and 2023 using prices adjusted for 2017, $2.15/day (16.2% and 2.3% - a decrease of 86%, aka old data cited for comparison and not the headline). Are you accusing them of adjusting for inflation to make the numbers look worse?! Lmao get off it, not everything's a conspiracy
