CRIME RATE Sources
- National Crime Records Bureau

Assumptions & Caveats
- The NCRB data is based on First Information Report (FIR) filed i.e. the data represents only the crimes reported. One has to be mindful of the same while drawing inferences from the data

EXPENDITURE EFFICIENCY Sources
- Planning Commission
- Ministry of Human Resource Development
Assumptions & Caveats
- The state rating is a measure of the overall expenditure on enrolment of students across levels of education relative to the average national expenditure on the enrolment in a particular year. A rating of greater than 1 indicates that the corresponding state has managed to spend a lesser amount as compared to the average national expenditure, thereby indicating a higher level of efficiency in expenditure on student enrolment across levels. Whereas a rating of less than 1 indicates that the state is spending more on enrolment when compared to the average national expenditure on enrolment

| Middle | 0.25 | 0.3 |
