Poverty is a social phenomenon that occurs when a part of society is unable to meet its fundamental necessities. We don't have beneficial results despite thousands of assessments and hundreds of government plans to reduce poverty. Despite of continuous government efforts to eliminate poverty, Haryana’s report card of poverty is not showing good results. Poverty is an obstacle in the road of development. This study will investigate the current situation of poverty in different districts of Haryana through Multidimensional approach. It also attempts to make comparative study of rural and urban areas multidimensional poverty. Secondary data has been used for this study. The study results concluded that poverty in some districts namely Mewat, Palwal, Sirsa, Rohtak and Bhiwani have high multidimensional poor. Multidimensional poor are more in rural areas as compared to urban areas.
