Know! more about Good Governance Index
Good Governance Index has been scientifically designed on various
parameters of governance.
It has been designed keeping in mind the citizen-centricity, which is the
prime mantra of Government

today and it will provide reference threshold for future also.
The Good Governance Index is a uniform tool across States to assess the
Status of Governance and impact of various interventions taken up by the
State Government and UTs.
The objectives of GGI are to provide quantifiable data to compare the
state of governance in all states and UTs, enable states and UTs to
formulate and implement suitable strategies for improving governance
and shift to result oriented approaches and administration.
The GGI takes into consideration ten sectors: 1). Agriculture and Allied
Sectors, 2). Commerce & Industries, 3). Human Resource Development,
4). Public Health, 5). Public Infrastructure & Utilities, 6). Economic
Governance, 7). Social Welfare & Development, 8). Judicial & Public
Security, 9). Environment and 10). Citizen-Centric Governance.
These ten Governance Sectors are measured on total 50 indicators.
Difference indicators are given different weightage under one
Governance Sector to calculate the value.
The states and UTs are divided into three groups: a). Big States, b).
North-East & Hill States and c). UTs.
The states and UTs are ranked on all indicators separately, at the same
time composite ranking is also calculated for these states and UTs under
their respective groups based upon these indicators.
On the index, Tamil Nadu has got the highest score (5.62), followed by
Maharashtra, Karnataka, and Chhattisgarh (5.4, 5.1, and 5.05)
respectively.
Among the Northeastern and hill states, Himachal Pradesh is at the top
with a score of 5.22, followed by Uttarakhand, Tripura, and Mizoram at
4.87, 4.5, and 4.41 respectively.
