The Correct answer is D
The Overseas Development Council (then under the leadership of Jim Grant) developed and publicized a measure of (physical) quality of life many years ago. It combines
literarcy rate, infant mortality rate, and life expectancy, using scales from the lowest to the highest values in the global system. It weights the three scales equally. The literacy rate is, in turn, a function of the per capita spending levels on education, estimated cross-sectionally.
The PQLI informs about the changing distribution of social benefits among countries, between the sexes, among ethnic groups, and by region and sector.
PQLI:Physical Quality of Life Index-->" ILL--1"
I....INFANT MORTALITY RATE
L...LITERACY RATE
L....LIFE EXPECTANCY AT AGE 1.
HDI: Human Developement Index ---> in HDI ..LIFE EXPECTANCY AT BIRTH
&PER CAPITA INCOME is considered
