Detailed Solution

Compared to India, Sri Lanka is superior in terms of human development. Sri Lanka has a better score compared to India in terms of Life Expectancy at Birth, Mean years of schooling of people aged 25 and above. As of 2018, the HDI rank of Sri Lanka is 73, whereas the HDI rank of India is 130. This may be due to the government allocating resources appropriately to various welfare sectors. Apart from increasing the GDP of the people, taking care of the welfare of the people is just as important. This does not mean that countries with high GDP should be ranked high in human development. India and Sri Lanka are good examples of this.
