Answer: Comprehensive Poverty Line Basket including health and education
Notes: The Tendulkar Committee was formed in 2005 and submitted its report in 2009. It shifted poverty measurement from a calorie-based model to a broader Poverty Line Basket approach. This included private expenditure on health and education alongside food and other needs. The committee recommended separate monetary values for rural and urban areas, utilized the Mixed Reference Period data, and made adjustments for price changes based on consumption patterns.
