Pillar: Connectivity
In Krishnagiri, 29% of children under five are stunted, better than 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 5% of employment is in small and medium enterprises. 77% of school-age children are enrolled in higher secondary school (classes 9–12). Only 30% of ITI trainers are certified.
In Krishnagiri, which ranks 9 of 38 in Tamil Nadu for youth opportunity, the overall opportunity score is 54.2 out of 100. It runs ahead of the national picture on women who are anaemic at 43.8% and households in the poorest wealth group at 6.1%.
