摘要：

The paper is based on a well-focused and purposive field survey of 200 randomly selected sample households (HHs) from 20 villages of Odisha (the poorest state) in India, provides a critique of present institutional arrangements for delivery of social security measures-in terms of outreach and effectiveness. The exercise shows, on the one hand, the dissonance between below poverty line households and asset/wealth position of households and thus there is strong evidence of inclusion and exclusion errors and on the other, weak targeting efficiency and an important determinant of which seems to be what is called HH social/structural capital.
