Figures for intermediate time points are taken from national surveys like Sample Registration System of Office of the Registrar General of India, National Sample Survey Organisation (NSSO), National Family Health
Survey (NFHS), District Information System on Education (DISE), Joint Monitoring Programme (JMP, UNICEF/WHO). Statistics of School Education 2010-11

Notes:

* Expert Group on Poverty (Tendulkar Committee); Govt. has set up another committee on this, after a debate arose on the number.

** This indicator is crucial to attaining MDG 7, though it has not been used by the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation ( MoSPI) to track the relevant MDG targets in their MDG - India Country Report
2011'.
