6. Causes of Poverty in India
Corruption
High & Illiterate population
Failure in reaching government policies to actual poor
Unemployment and underemployment, arising in part
from protectionist policies pursued till 1991 that
prevented high foreign investment.
About 60% of the population depends on agriculture
whereas the contribution of agriculture to the GDP is
about 18%.

7. High population growth rate, although
demographers generally agree that this is
a symptom rather than cause of poverty.
The caste system, under which
hundreds of millions of Indians were kept
away from educational, ownership, and
employment opportunities, and subjected
to violence for "getting out of line." British
rulers encouraged caste privileges and
customs, at least before the 20th century.

8. Amazed???
As of 2005, 85.7% of the
population lives on less than
$2.50 (PPP) a day.
the Planning Commission of
India has estimated that
27.5% of the population was
living below the poverty line
in 2004–2005.

annualized growth rates for Gujarat
(8.8%), Haryana (8.7%), or Delhi
(7.4%) were much higher than for
Bihar (5.1%), Uttar Pradesh (4.4%),
or Madhya Pradesh (3.5%).Poverty
rates in rural Orissa (43%) and rural
Bihar (41%) are higher than in the
world's poorest countries such as
Malawi.
A 2007 report by the state-run
National Commission for
Enterprises in the Unorganised
Sector (NCEUS) found that 25% of
Indians, or 236 million people, lived
on less than 20 rupees per day

10. Impact of Poverty in India
Several issues like hunger, illness and thirst are both causes
and Effects – for instance : not having water means you’re
poor,but being poor also means you can’t afford water or
food.
The effects of poverty are most often interrelated so that one
problem
hardly ever occurs alone. For instance bad sanitation makes
it easier spread
around old and new disease, and hunger and lack of water
make people
more vulnerable to them.
