मानव विकास निर्देशांक मापनात खालीलपैकी कोणत्या निर्देशकाचा वापर होत नाही ?

The correct answer is Option D (Agricultural Productivity).

Key Points:
• Correct Option Evaluation: The correct answer is option (4) Agricultural Productivity.
• Human Development Index (HDI) Indicators: Developed by Mahbub ul Haq and popularized by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) in 1990, HDI measures human development across three core dimensions:
• 1. Health & Longevity: Measured by Life Expectancy at Birth (Option 3).
• 2. Knowledge: Measured by Mean Years of Schooling and Expected Years of Schooling (incorporating literacy rate - Option 1).
• 3. Standard of Living: Measured by Gross National Income (GNI) per capita adjusted for purchasing power parity (GDP per capita - Option 2).
• Analysis of Other Options: Agricultural productivity is an agricultural economic indicator used to measure output per unit of agricultural input, but it is not a component of HDI.
• Exam Insight: HDI uses geometric means to combine these dimensions into an index ranging from 0 to 1.
• Key Takeaway: Agricultural productivity is not used in HDI calculation; health, education, and per capita income are used.
