Pillar: Connectivity
In Bhojpur, 40.7% 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.
77% of registered enterprises are in services while 23% are in manufacturing. Only 4% of employment is in small and medium enterprises. Only 51% of school-age children are enrolled in higher secondary school (classes 9–12).
In Bhojpur, which ranks 7 of 38 in Bihar for youth opportunity, the overall opportunity score is 44.6 out of 100. It trails the national picture on women who are anaemic at 73.5% and households in the poorest wealth group at 27.2%.
