喀拉拉邦(Kerala)于2025年11月1日宣布自己免于极端贫困, Kerala declared itself free from extreme poverty on Nov. 1, 2025, becoming India’s first state to do so, according to Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan.

喀拉拉邦首席部长Pinarayi Vijayan在2025年11月1日国家成立日宣布国家免于赤贫, Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan declared the state free from extreme poverty on State Formation Day, November 1, 2025, calling it a historic milestone and the "dawn of a new era." 他说,喀拉拉邦是印度第一个实现这一点的邦,通过选举后第一次内阁会议发起的由政府主导的倡议,实现了2021年的选举承诺。 He stated that Kerala is the first Indian state to achieve this, fulfilling a 2021 election promise through a government-led initiative launched in the first cabinet meeting after the election. 这项工作由喀拉拉邦地方行政学院和地方自治部协调，利用公众参与——包括 MLA、地方代表、Kudumbashree 工人和志愿者——通过 Wadakkanchery 和两个 gram panchayats 的试点计划确定贫困家庭，后来扩大到全州。 The effort, coordinated by the Kerala Institute of Local Administration and the Department of Local Self-Government, used public participation—including MLAs, local representatives, Kudumbashree workers, and volunteers—to identify impoverished families via pilot programs in Wadakkanchery and two gram panchayats, later expanded statewide. 政府强调由社区推动的评估以及持续取得进展的持续努力,而反对派则抵制集会,质疑数据,并称这一说法有误导之嫌。 The government emphasized community-driven assessments and ongoing efforts to sustain progress, while the opposition boycotted the assembly session, questioning the data and calling the claim misleading.
