In Udalguri, 33.8% of children under five are stunted, close to 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.
66% of registered enterprises are in services while 34% 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). Only 22% of ITI trainers are certified.
In Udalguri, which ranks 25 of 35 in Assam for youth opportunity, the overall opportunity score is 43.2 out of 100. It trails the national picture on women who are anaemic at 81.5% and households in the poorest wealth group at 48.6%.
