The article talks about "According to this assessment of poverty, using the Suresh Tendulkar Committee methodology, in Sikkim, Goa, Tamil Nadu, and Andhra Pradesh recorded the lowest poverty rate in urban areas in 2011-12. Sikkim had the lowest at 3.6 per cent BPL; Goa was at 4 per cent, Tamil Nadu stood at 6.3 and Andhra was 6.2." And so on. Any body has any idea about the process or the actual data? This article or the source of the article (planning commission ?) has gone fox-news[1] ways in terms of data.
