            The India Today study tracks each state’s performance over time and, in particular, records the changes over the last five years. It takes into account both the business environment and the quality of life. The parameters on which the states are judged include economy, agriculture, education, health care, infrastructure, inclusive development, law and order, governance, entrepreneurship and environment and cleanliness.  Its objectivity and scope have made this study the gold standard for the health of the Indian states.
