520			_aThis paper offers four findings. First, rural poverty saw a modest decline despite the onset of COVID-19 in 2019–20 and fell as sharply in 2020–21 as it had in 2018–19. Second, urban poverty rose modestly in 2020–21, with the declining trend restored by the April–June 2021 quarter. Third, these trends hold for different social and religious groups, including Scheduled Castes, Scheduled Tribes, Hindus and Muslims. Finally, as measured by the Gini coefficient, income distribution saw a sharp decline in the rural, urban, and rural and urban areas combined. - Reproduced https://www.epw.in/journal/2025/21/special-articles/poverty-and-inequality-india.html
