What do you mean by Human Development Index?

 A tool developed by the United Nations to measure and rank countries’ levels of social and economic development based on four criteria: Life expectancy at birth, mean years of schooling, expected years of schooling and gross national income per capita. The HDI makes it possible to track changes in development levels over time and to compare development levels in different countries.

human development index (HDR) compares the development of countris on the basis of health facilities, literacy, acces to education, net attendance ratio, etc. It helps to consider the overall development of the country unlike just taking in consideration the PER CAPITA INCOME (which isn't always the best way of comparing countries)
