However, because more people in poverty live in middle-income, rather than low-income, countries today, higher poverty lines have been introduced.

2. On the basis of these calculations for the year 2000, the poverty line for a person was fixed at ₹ 328 per month for the rural areas and ₹ 454 for the urban areas. Despite less calorie requirement the higher amount for urban areas is because of the high prices of many essential products in urban centres.
