Resumen del corpus

The World Bank reports that India has experienced one of the fastest poverty declines globally, with the share of people living in extreme poverty falling from 27.1% to 2.6%. Furthermore, the proportion of people below the lower-middle-income poverty line decreased significantly, from 57.7% to 16.1%. This progress is attributed to strong consumption growth, increased employment, particularly for women, and expanded social transfers, marking substantial improvements across monetary and non-monetary poverty measures.
