Abstract
This article makes an attempt to find the extent of linkage between monetary and non-monetary aspects of poverty based on secondary data. The analysis reveals that the Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) of Eastern region is the highest among all regions in Uttar Pradesh. The article finds disparity in terms of MPI and per capita income among districts of Uttar Pradesh. This study also identifies that there is negative relationship between per capita income and multidimensional poverty. Therefore, the article suggests that the government should provide employment oriented education and technical training for skill development especially in backward districts to enhance the ability of their citizens to fetch gainful employment and improve their living standard.
