A MoSPI survey shows a significant increase in consumption among rural SCs and urban OBCs, with rural SCs' consumption increasing by 168% and urban OBCs' by 170%. This indicates a decline in food expenditure since 1950, with the largest increase in non-cereal items in the bottom 20%. The study also highlights a reduction in inequality in consumption expenditure and suggests that people are better off now.
