Pillar: Connectivity
In Lakhimpur, 38.5% 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.
58% of registered enterprises are in services while 42% are in manufacturing. Only 2% of employment is in small and medium enterprises. 64% of school-age children are enrolled in higher secondary school (classes 9–12).
In Lakhimpur, which ranks 5 of 35 in Assam for youth opportunity, the overall opportunity score is 47.5 out of 100. It trails the national picture on women who are anaemic at 65.5% and households in the poorest wealth group at 34.5%.
