    Uttar Pradesh unemployment rate, PLFS 2023-24

    sansad.in

    The National Statistics Office's Periodic Labour Force Survey for 2023-24 puts Uttar Pradesh's usual-status unemployment rate for persons aged 15 and above at 3.0%, with 2.2% in rural areas and 6.7% in urban areas. All-India unemployment fell from 6.0% in 2017-18 to 3.2% in 2023-24. For inflation, the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation's Consumer Price Index press note for July 2026 records all-India retail inflation of 4.45%, and the Economic Survey 2025-26 says average inflation for April-December 2025 was 1.7%, the lowest since the CPI series began.

    • All-India Consumer Price Index inflation was 4.45% in July 2026, and the Economic Survey 2025-26 states average headline inflation for April-December 2025 was 1.7%, the lowest since the CPI series began. [5][6]

    The claim says inflation and unemployment in Uttar Pradesh are at their peak. Official data contradict this: Uttar Pradesh's unemployment rate in the latest annual survey was 3.0%, and all-India unemployment has fallen sharply since 2017-18. Retail inflation is 4.45%, far below the 6.7% recorded in 2022-23, and the Economic Survey describes recent inflation as the lowest since the CPI series began. These are not peak levels.
