While criticising, it is also true that the book published just when the pandemic started, thus, the longterm impact was out of scope of the book. I want to end saying that this is a must read for the academicians and researchers because the facts and the lacunas of the laws are very well analysed throughout.

Noted economist Mehbub ul Haq's human development project defined a composite matrix which captures the life expectancy, education and per capita indicators in one matrix. This was developed to track as a development indicator of human welfare. In the previous studies, the GDP or GDP per capita was regressed with the Human Development Index (HDI) composite index and indicated a direct correlation between the two variables. However, this article examines the contribution of the income component in the HDI index by recalculating the composite matrix. This article also qualitatively examines the ability of HDI index to measure the human development parameters. JEL Classification Codes: E01, I12, O1
