As per the National Multidimensional Poverty Index Report 2023, which of the following states has the least population concentration in the Multidimensional poverty index?

The correct option is Kerala.

According to the National Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) Report 2023 published by NITI Aayog, Kerala registered the lowest percentage of multidimensionally poor population in India, with only 0.55% of its population identified as multidimensionally poor.

This achievement highlights Kerala's robust performance across key dimensions of the index, which include health, education, and standard of living. In contrast, other states in the options have slightly higher MPI headcounts (for example, Goa is at approximately 0.84%, Tamil Nadu at 2.20%, and Sikkim at 2.60%). Therefore, Kerala has the least population concentration in multidimensional poverty.
