A third - 34 per cent - of all families in Bihar survive on less than Rs 6,000 per month, and 42 per cent of Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribes households live in poverty, according to the second set of data from the Bihar government's caste-based survey. Only 5.76 per cent of Scheduled Castes had finished Class 11 and Class 12. That number rises just marginally to nine per cent for all; this is significantly lower than six per cent listed in a 2017/18 National Statistical Office report.
