Pillar: Connectivity
In Hojai, 39.3% of children under five are stunted, behind the typical Indian district. The Anganwadi centre is the frontline for changing that: supplementary nutrition, growth monitoring, and pre-school for children up to six.
70% of registered enterprises are in services while 30% are in manufacturing. Only 2% of employment is in small and medium enterprises. Only 50% of school-age children are enrolled in higher secondary school (classes 9–12).
In Hojai, which ranks 32 of 35 in Assam for youth opportunity, the overall opportunity score is 41.1 out of 100. It trails the national picture on households in the poorest wealth group at 31.3%. On women who are anaemic at 56.4%, it sits close to the national mark.
