Abstract

For decades, economic growth and development have been highlighted in terms of increasing GNP. Recently the notion of growth has undergone a considerable shift from an increase in GNP to improvement in human development which is a target of Millennium Development Goals 2015. The main objective of MDGs 2015 is to strengthen the human resources of a nation that has been neglected in India for a long time. Implementation of government policies to achieve the targets of MDGs also has not been quite satisfactory. The purpose of this research is to explore the impact of government expenditure on HDI to take the economy towards the path of healthy development to realize MDGs 2015. Time series analysis has been used from 2000 to 2019 to investigate the reasons and facts by using OLS and unveil the facts related to human development expenditures.
