Summary

Introduction

In Bangladesh like a developing country education and the provision of health are the leading sectors for social development. It allows statements about the rate of change and not just static differences This new indicator shows the current level of social development and provides the literate state of the people by age group and enables to foresee the levels of education and human potentiality of future generations. It does not need any maximum or minimum assumption or adjustment. With the systematic distribution of the population by age group the LLE indicator underlines the individual years of life, which are suggestive of a real ’literate state’ This social indicator assigns a more realistic level of the functional abilities. The analysis of a nation’s age group replacement process by level of education is an important factor in projecting the potentiality of development of that generation and the nation
