Consider the following statements about Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI):

1. MPI is calculated using Alkire-Foster methodology.

2. MPI calculated by NITI Aayog has a total of twelve indicators.

3. Maternal Health and Bank Account are common indicators in the MPI of NITI Aayog and MPI of United Nations Development Programme (UNDP).

Explanation of the Statements:Statement 1 is CORRECT: The Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) universally uses the Alkire-Foster (AF) methodology, which was developed by Sabina Alkire and James Foster. This method identifies poverty by looking at overlapping deprivations that a single household faces simultaneously. Statement 2 is CORRECT: When NITI Aayog designed India's National MPI, it modified the framework to align with national policy priorities, bringing the total number of indicators to twelve. Statement 3 is INCORRECT: Maternal Health and Bank Account are not common to both. They are the two additional indicators uniquely added by NITI Aayog to the National MPI. The Global MPI (developed by UNDP and OPHI) only has 10 indicators and does not include them.
