    Which one of the following is not an indicator of HDI?

    • Education

    A. Subsidy
    Explanation
    An indicator of HDI is a measure that reflects the overall development and well-being of a country. Education, health, and per capita income are commonly used indicators to assess a country's level of development. Subsidy, on the other hand, is not directly related to the overall development of a country. While subsidies can have an impact on certain aspects of development, such as supporting specific industries or social programs, they are not considered a primary indicator of HDI.

They are typically dependent on others for their basic needs and require support from the working-age population.
