Aspirational Districts:

A country’s development is not just measured by its economic progress but it is also a function of its human
development. India has brought many frameworks and initiatives to mainstream sustainable economic development
through mandating the Corporate Social Responsibility Provisions under Companies Act’2013.

There has been a wide gap in the geographical distribution of CSR funds where the funds are concentrated under
few states and its districts. A need for more equitable distribution is felt for paying more attention to economically
backward parts of the country.

Anchored by Niti Aayog, ‘Transformation of Aspirational Districts’ programme aims to expeditiously improve the
socio-economic status of 112 districts from across 28 states. The programmes aims to focus on least developed
districts of the country. The programme key focus areas are as below:

These 112 districts have been identified on the basis of transparent criteria. A composite Index comprising challenges
faced by the districts in terms of poverty of their citizens, relatively poor health and nutrition, education status and
deficient infrastructure.

CSR initiatives in such districts by Corporates/Implementing Agencies shall boost the progress of India’s Social
development. The List of Districts is as follows:
