Apart from infant mortality, literacy rate, death rate what else does PQLI include ?
Answer: B
The missing component is life expectancy.
The Physical Quality of Life Index, devised by Morris David Morris for the Overseas Development Council in 1979, averages three indicators, each scaled from 0 to 100: basic literacy, infant mortality and life expectancy at age one. It was designed to measure well-being directly rather than through income per head.
Language efficiency, population density and mother nutrition are not part of the index. Population density is a demographic measure, and nutrition, though linked to mortality, is not one of the three components.
