Pre-'91 rate of rate of change in poverty is -1.1 but pop growth is 2.2 which is greater mod value...now for the 2nd one ie post-91 has change in poverty is -2.4 but pop growth is 1.7, now |-2.4|>|1.7|...so the total no of poor people was rising before '91 but falling after '91.
-1.6<-1 & -2.1<-.7.....NAS growing faster than NSS data...
u just do da prblms acc to growth rate comparison...nothing else...otherwise it got screwed....
