Economic & Political WeeklySummary: Interspatial disparities across major states in India based on the consumption expenditure data for 2022–23 are analysed. It is observed that, first, consumption, more than income per capita, is supposed to be a better indicator as it directly reflects on food intake and non-food utilisation, which are connected to productivity, health, and well-being. The non-food items depict greater inequality across spaces compared to the food items. Second, rural areas unravel greater interspatial inequality than urban areas. Education, health, housing, consumer durable goods, and conveyance are some of the items that show greater discrepancies across the states.- Reproduced
