I am still unable to find the source that translates your poverty line to PKR 400,000 p.a.
In all these old reports you can see Haryana too ..but today pkr 400000/- is considered as below poverty line family ,for Karnataka it's around 300000/ - for Telangana it's around 440000/- , different for different states..
