An Atlas on Literacy Situation in the Districts of Madhya Pradesh (MP), 2011 A Quick Review of the Decadal (2010-2011) Achievement of Literacy in the State
2
Introduction It is the proven fact that literacy is the key to the socio-economic development of the country. The Government of India, aims to achieve the 85% literacy by the end of the XIth five year plan (2007-2012) in the country across all states of India. This atlas, provides the landscape view of the literacy situation in the second largest state (geographically) Madhya Pradesh divided into 50 districts and located in the heart of the country. The atlas has been prepared by using the data from the latest Census of India (preliminary report) 2011. The atlas contains many maps, enlightening strategic information by unfolding the achievements, gaps and the districts requiring attention with priority for interventions so that the low performing areas can keep pace with other areas of the state for development. The maps are self-explanatory and easily interpretable and can be used by the policy makers, administrators, programme implementers, UN agencies and other interested organizations and individuals working in the field of social development in the state of Madhya Pradesh, India.

To provide strategic and/or actionable information from Census 2011 in ready-to-use form to the development professionals for evidence- based planning and decision-making by further analysis of the information generated by Census of India (Preliminary Report) 2011 through: 1.Measuring the progress by the state made during the decade 2001-2011 2.Identifying the districts with extreme performance 3.Highlighting the districts requiring attention with high priority for development of literacy 4.Identifying the clusters (if any) with geographical contiguity of most illiterate population 5.Supporting development partners in usage of data 6.Exploring advance use of DevInfo technology in generating strategic information Specific Objectives

Closing Note We hope that the professionals working in the area of development sector will find the atlas useful for informed decision making and designing/fine tuning the interventions in the districts requiring comparatively higher attention. The technical team will welcome the feedback from the users and would appreciate if they could share their suggestions, comments to the author through the email (kkgaur@devinfo.info). The valuable feedback will be very helpful to strengthen the atlas to make it more useful.
