The Human Progress Index (HDI) is a global assessment of human development based on life expectancy, education, literacy, and GDP per capita; numerous variables represent it. A country's HDI value affects economic growth and GDP, highlighting the importance of human resources in the Country's economic development. It assesses development to create an environment where inhabitants may live a healthy and creative existence. The HDI considers a country's achievements in healthy living, knowledge, and living standard. This article investigates the HDI in Indian states and union territories and the factors that influence inter-state comparisons in economic well-being, health, education, and the human development index. The relationships between social opportunities and HDI status in Indian states have been calculated using correlation. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
