measure but not work on macro lvl #s like GSDP, gross state domestic produce or gross state per capita income...why not simply attack simple micro lvl #s, indicators of well-being, like hospitals/docs per 1000, schools/teachers per 1000, length of roads per sq km..internet,telephone connections/ 1000...television/tv per 1000...household income lvl...degree holders/ 1000...unemployed/ 1000....# of cars,automobiles/ 1000....avg calory consumption per person...you know da regular statistical #s...think they r the indicators of well-being...unless you measure effectiveness of major grand schemes...they r simply wastage of public money...wellfare schemes shall address bottom-middle-top rung of the society...may be priority may go to bottom & middle rung...and tacit support top rung to help govt pull the xtra load...social responsiblity...
