This document summarizes the relationship between government corruption and poverty in India. It notes that India has widespread government corruption and is also home to a large population living in poverty. Government corruption can increase poverty by diverting public funds meant for social services to private gains, reducing economic growth that could lift people out of poverty, and undermining public trust in government institutions. However, not all poverty is caused by corruption as India also faces challenges of population growth, income inequality, and lack of education and job opportunities. Overall, while corruption likely exacerbates poverty, the relationship is complex with many contributing factors.
India faces significant poverty issues, with over 194 million people living below the poverty line. Poverty is caused by social issues like the caste system, which discriminates against lower castes. Demographic factors like population growth and a lack of job opportunities also contribute to poverty. Economic constraints in India, including a lack of resources and limited development, prevent adequate investment in education and social programs, perpetuating the cycle of poverty from generation to generation. Corruption also plagues poverty alleviation efforts. While the government and organizations are working to alleviate poverty, it remains a serious problem in India due to deep-rooted social, demographic, and economic challenges.
Poverty remains a major issue in India, with over 400 million people living below the poverty line. Several factors contribute to poverty in India, including a high population growth rate, limited job opportunities outside of agriculture, and corruption in poverty alleviation programs. While the government and organizations are working to reduce poverty through various subsidies and development programs, issues remain with both measuring poverty accurately and ensuring funds reach the intended recipients.
India has high levels of poverty due to its large population growth, dominance of agriculture, and limited growth in non-farm jobs. Those below the poverty line live on 42-51 cents per day. High population growth contributes to lower per capita incomes and makes it difficult to provide resources and opportunities to all. The large population also puts pressure on limited land resources. Caste discrimination further exacerbates poverty as those in lower castes have limited opportunities.
Poverty in India is widespread, with over 300 million people expected to be lifted out of extreme poverty by 2015 according to a UN report. However, India still faces significant issues with malnutrition and hunger. A committee headed by Suresh Tendulkar developed a new methodology for calculating poverty in India that found over 350 million people lived below the poverty line in 2005. The document then discusses several root causes of poverty in India, including population growth, lack of irrigation and infrastructure in rural areas, unemployment, and social factors like the caste system. Overpopulation is seen as a major challenge exacerbating poverty in India. Improving agricultural productivity and reducing the development gap between states could help address poverty.

Poverty is defined as lacking sufficient money to meet basic needs like food, shelter, and clothing. In India, over 400 million people, or 33% of the population, live below the international poverty line of $1.25 per day. Rural poverty is caused by factors like poor agricultural yields, debt, and lack of jobs or education, while urban poverty stems from unemployment, low wages, and illiteracy. To reduce poverty, solutions proposed include improving agriculture through irrigation and market access, expanding education and vocational training, generating employment through manufacturing and services, and strengthening public health and social services. Long-term solutions require promoting education, employment, and eliminating corruption from government policies and programs.
Poverty is a major problem in India, with over 250 million people lacking basic needs like food and shelter. It gives rise to issues like increased crime and farmer suicides. While India's cities have developed economically, the rural areas and many citizens have been left behind, with over 25% of people still uneducated and millions living on less than $1.25 per day. Reducing poverty will require improved access to education, healthcare, skills training, and economic opportunities, especially in rural areas, as well as efforts to curb corruption and support agricultural growth.
A STUDY ON POVERTY CONCEPTS AND PERSPECTIVES CONCEPTUAL PAPERPedro Craggett

Alleviating poverty in India is an ongoing challenge but economic growth and government programs have helped reduce poverty levels.
This document discusses poverty and inequality in India. It notes that over 220 million people, or 22% of India's population, live below the poverty line according to government statistics. Poverty is most acute in rural areas, where over 75% of Indians live. Several factors contribute to poverty, including illiteracy, lack of job opportunities, and India's caste system. Income inequality is also a major issue - India's top 1% of the population holds over 73% of the country's total wealth, while the poorest half saw their wealth increase only 1%. Different committees have proposed different poverty lines to measure poverty over time, but hundreds of millions of Indians still live in poverty according to all metrics.

Poverty is a major threat in India, with both absolute and relative forms present. Absolute poverty involves inability to meet basic needs, while relative poverty is defined by a government as falling below minimum living standards. Rural poverty is often caused by dependence on agriculture and the impacts of inadequate rainfall or irrigation. Large family sizes, caste systems, and lack of opportunities and facilities for lower castes also contribute to rural poverty. Urban poverty results from massive migration from rural to urban areas due to lack of rural employment and opportunities. Several government programs aim to reduce poverty, but its impacts have yet to fully reach those most affected. Education, employment opportunities, development of small industries, population control, agriculture development, and proper resource utilization are
The document discusses various causes and impacts of environmental pollution. It notes that deforestation is a major cause of pollution and releases harmful gases that contribute to issues like global warming. Transportation also significantly contributes to air pollution through the release of hydrocarbons from vehicles. Overpopulation puts pressure on the environment by requiring more resources. Various types of pollution like water, soil and air pollution are discussed along with their impacts on health and the environment. Solutions like reducing plastic use and controlling population growth are mentioned.

The 20th century saw the US defeat enemies and increase its international reputation by siding with Allied powers in two world wars. The US then followed an independent course in foreign policy.
The document discusses how world history should be interpreted in its global context rather than focusing on single moments, in order to recognize recurring patterns and themes. It argues that world history is meant to provide an unbiased account of humans as a single species. The essay also examines how human societies have evolved from simple early communities to more complex cosmopolitan civilizations, though these civilizations are also more fragile due to their large energy consumption.
Structural violence refers to social structures that harm or limit people from meeting their basic needs. It impacts those lower on the social ladder due to factors like age, sex, ethnicity, race, sexual orientation, or other aspects that make them different from the majority or norm. Structural violence is embedded in social assumptions and societal resources that privilege some groups over others. An example is the difference in assumptions and resources allocated to inner city schools versus suburban schools, with inner city schools facing more difficulties. While less visible than physical violence, structural violence can still have significant harmful effects through unfair treatment and limited opportunities.
Online graduate programs have grown in popularity as technology has advanced, allowing students to earn graduate degrees remotely through online lectures and submitting work electronically rather than physically attending a university.

For most middle school students, the idea of changing from a young elementary student, who was not given much variety in school to the idea of entering into middle school where they are learning how to become their own advocate by becoming a leader within and outside of the classroom. Within the middle school setting, all of these events of student s life don t happened over night. It takes time and the guidance of the teacher to help the student make connection

Graduate Degree Entry Essay
A movement of people, ideas, services, and goods that increasingly see no boundaries fascinated me. More so because I, myself, am a product of transplantation. Since then, my otherwise typical American dream narrative gradually evolved into a lifelong passion toward global affairs. And a reach for the graduate degree is an appropriate step in realizing that passion. After a search of what can best capitalize my skills, I arrived at an undergraduate major in international studies. Gaining deeper insights into contemporary issues, such as a worldwide expansion of the middle class, a dilemma between environmental safeguard and economic development, an escalation of conflicts between the states and nonconventional actors, was enlightening, humbling, and harrowing at times. Nevertheless, a field which delves into a complex state of global affairs dovetailed my penchant in exploring an unparalleled gamut of issues and approaching the current affairs through an interdisciplinary lens using politics, economics, history, and philosophies. Henceforth, I became sure this was a path for me.

Welfare Of The Welfare State
The welfare state in Britain as we know it today did not exist, looking back through the 18th and 19th Centuries many of the social welfare benefits that are available to Britain s today were not even imaginable to the people at that time. Today much of the help that is available to those in the margins of society is seen as an obligation for the state to correct. However in the Elizabethan Era the attitudes towards welfare and the poor were very negative and unsympathetic. In this essay I will be discussing welfare before the classic welfare state , the provisions for poor, the key features of the welfare state and why it was developed.
The key features of the welfare state are very linked to the 1942 report on Social Insurance and Allied Services or also known as the Beveridge Report. The key features I have identified of the classic welfare state is the National Health Service (NHS), Social insurance, Housing, Education and Full employment. Asa Briggs a British historian defined the welfare state as a state which ...organised power is deliberately used in order to play of the market in 3 direction; by guaranteeing an individuals a minimum income, narrowing extent of insecurity by enabling people to meet certain social contingencies which lead to family or individual crisis and thirdly by ensuring that all citizens without distinction of status or class are offered the best standards available to a certain agreed range of social services .

Pseudo-Profound Bullshit
Pennycook, Cheyne, Barr, Koehler and Fugelsang s paper On the Reception and Detection of Pseudo Profound Bullshit (2015) was about multiple studies done on the reception and detection of bullshit. Pennycook et al. examined the mechanisms behind bullshit reception and created valid measures of bullshit receptivity. The goal of the study was to see if there were consistent and significant differences in the ability to detect pseudo profound bullshit. Pennycook et al. (2015) state bullshit is something that implies, but does not contain adequate meaning or truth (p.549). They suggest that there is a spectrum of bullshit, and that pseudo profound bullshit is an extreme point (p.550) on this spectrum; it is described as vague and ambiguous....show more content...Deepak Chopra s tweets were used as bullshit statements throughout the studies, and it was found that knowledge of who he is and his tweets are not a confounding factor. Participants were asked to state the profundity of statements provided to them, and would then answer tests on verbal intelligence, heuristics, religious beliefs, cognitive reflections, ontological beliefs, paranormal beliefs, numeracy, and analytical cognition (tests vary between studies). In studies 1 and 2, Pennycook et al. (2015) found that participants often failed to detect bullshit statements and found correlations with related variables, but were unable to tell what the associations were driven by. In study 3 they found that response bias plays a role in receptivity of bullshit and may explain its association with analytic thinking. Study 4 results support the idea that the difference between profundity ratings for pseudo prof

Importance Of Respect In The Military
It is often said that the Non Commissioned Officer is the backbone of the United States Army. The truth is respect is the true backbone of the United States Army. Not just respect, but mutual respect. Without mutual respect the Army and all Military would fail in its mission. However, mutual respect alone is still not enough. It is all of the core values that stem from respect. These build together the necessary building blocks of leadership and mutual respect.
There are several definitions of respect. One is being deference to a right, privilege, privileged position, or someone or something considered to have certain rights or privileges; proper acceptance or courtesy; acknowledgment. The other relevant definition is the esteem for or a sense of the worth or excellence of a person, a personal quality or ability, or something considered as a manifestation of a personal quality or ability. (Respect) The first definition discusses the military custom and courtesy of showing the proper respect to those of a greater rank or position then you. This is an integral function of the military. It allows those in a higher rank or position to give orders and directions which will be carried out without hesitation. However while this is a necessity for success it is not the only respect needed. If this is the only type of respect garnered it could create a hostile command climate. General John M. Schofield said, The discipline which makes the soldiers of a free country

Arguments Over Euthanasia
In the Ancient World, specifically Greece, Rome, and Egypt, society believed that if a person had no interest in continuing their life, then society had no bond to force them to continue it. Even in the 1930s there were organizations that aided in awareness and legalization of voluntary and assisted suicide (the Hemlock Society, the Voluntary Euthanasia Society). The issue became media frenzy in the late 1990s with the efforts of Dr. Jack Kevorkian and others and continues to be contentious (Fridstein, 10).
Euthanasia is a medical/legal term that focuses on purposefully ending a life in order to alleviate suffering, pain, or discomfort. Passive euthanasia is intentionally withholding treatment or medicine; and active euthanasia is assisting the death of another. Both are extremely controversial, and focus on a number of ethical and philosophical topics: quality of life, a person s right to choose their death (e.g. knowing they will become debilitated), and what constitutes a painless or happy death . Legally, if a person or their designated surrogate does not have authority about their own life, who does? Perhaps it is the case of personal responsibility and quality of life that is the crux of a need for reexamination? (Callahan, 4).
The idea of euthanasia often uses incurable pain as a reason for ending life. However, pain is a relative term. For example, in some cases, pain is not the focus, but quality of life and the ability to be thinking and active human being is

1. Review of Literature for Poverty Measurements
Literature Review
From the time of independence, India has been suffering from acute poverty, most of it is chronic in nature. If we look at the percentage of people
below the poverty line, we do notice a sharp fall, but the absolute number remains increasing at a high rate.
The situation keeps aggravating despite of several poverty alleviation programs that are implemented every year. The main reason for such failure, apart
from the implementation issues, would be the measurement and numbers on which these programs are based. Appropriate measurement is central to
analyzing and understanding poverty and its alleviation.
Joshi P.D. (1997) identifies the methods and indices used for measuring the magnitude and extent of poverty are not...show more content...
(Ghosh J, 2010)
The qualitative measures of poverty and wellbeing are also widely criticized by researchers who follow positive research paradigm on the ground that
the relation between participatory exercises and the project or plans to alleviate poverty is often remote. Also there are factors like heterogeneity,
ambiguity in responses, truthfulness etc.
Hayati D. Et al., ( 2004) however recognizes that there is yet another group of researchers who think that both qualitative and quantitative approaches
can be used simultaneously to answer a research question. For example, Poverty Measurement Index (PMI) is one such index. The PMI explicitly
accommodates the multidimensionality of poverty. In the PMI construction process, poverty is viewed as a multidimensional and complex
socio–economic state that relates to many aspects of household living.
Bailey J. makes out that in adopting such an approach, it is necessary to extend the net so as to cover wider dimensions of well–being using
non–conventional indicators of psychosocial and mental health, and environmental, relational and subjective components. In addition to this there
should be an appropriate use of econometric and mathematical tools in order to quantify the variables.
Tiwari M, (2008) argues that some researchers emphasizes on the qualitative and holistic approach to measure poverty.A more holistic understanding of
poverty and wellbeing will have important

INTRODUCTION OF POVERTY AND HUNGER
"Poverty"has reduced but still remains a major concern for Nation. Poverty is not only the scarcity of resources, but is set of priorities imposed upon
the rest of the world by the rich. "Hunger" and "Poverty" are powerful but familiar terms. Everyone knows what they mean, yet, they evoke different
descriptions for everyone. Even major international organizations mandated to alleviate hunger and poverty use a variety of interpretations. The
Hunger Project board member Mohini Giri said, "To me, hunger is rape,...show more content...
Since 1950s, Indian government has introduced various planning schemes to help the poor attain self sufficiency in at least the case of food. The most
important initiative that has been taken was the supply of basic commodities, particularly food. Modern day society comprises two general classes:–
1. Those that have more food than appetite.
2. Those that have more appetite than food.
People falling under the second category are hungry people & remain hungry. Generally, the word "Hunger" has three meanings according to the
Oxford English Dictionary. Food is like a moral right of all who are born into this world. Poverty is the principal cause of hunger. The hunger, about
which we are talking here, is the scarcity of food in a country. If hunger is to be eliminated, poverty has to be dealt with simultaneously. The causes of
poverty include poor people's lack of resources, an extremely unequal income distribution and conflict between specific countries and obviously, hunger
itself. Hunger is primarily a problem of general poverty, and thus overall economic growth and its distributional pattern cannot but be important in
solving the hunger problem. It is particularly critical to pay attention to employment opportunities, other ways of acquiring economic means, and also
food prices, which influence people's ability to

3. Ethical Issues On India And Poverty
Poverty is a major global problem, with over 4 billion people currently living in it. The poverty level is set at people living on $2 a day. Yet, like
most people, they too need to buy the essentials and other items for daily uses. Companies realize that there is a market out there for these
impoverished people. Some of them might take advantage of them, and some have a little humanity in them. There are several ethical ways to target
them without putting a hefty price on their budget and at the same time, companies can make a profit on these products. Hammond's and Prahalad's
article "Selling to the Poor" clearly defines that people in poverty are just as capable of conducting business as anyone else in their respective sectors. It
is just that they do not have access to technology and information. In the beginning of the article it states that Indian farmers use "e–Choupals",
computers connected to the internet in rural India created by the company ITC, to track market prices and futures on soy crops. They used to
technology to avoid paying a middle–man in local auction markets and were able to make $6 more per ton on their crops. The internet is allowing
them to increase their productivity and benefit both parties. India and China are two examples of developing countries that have most of their
population in poverty: 171 million households in India, 286 million households in China, but with the same access as everyone else, they can earn a
decent living. Combine the annual income of the two, and it reaches over $1 trillion. It is up to the private sector to tap into this market. However,
traditional methods will not work. Hammond and Prahalad point out how three examples of different items: cell phones, table salt, and cosmetics,
have changed a company's business process and marketing strategy to accommodate the needs and the budgets of the lower class. The major trend to
market cell phones in the poorer countries is to sell more prepaid phone cards, as people pay from them as needed instead of paying a monthly plan,
which could overwhelm some people's budgets. In India, iodine salt is an important nutritional supplement, yet only four out of 10 households use it
due to a large portion of the salt

4. Pros And Cons Of Poverty In India
Across India, the millions of citizens living on less than two dollars a day are barely able to afford some of their most basic necessities. The range in
types of homes they live in, to access to services, such as, electricity, water and sanitation varies from city to city. India, is the most populous nation on
the planet and yet an astonishing number of citizens are living below the poverty line. There are differentiations in poorness, however, evidently, those
living on less than two dollars a day are living in much dire circumstances. As the population increases, the poverty level inflates as well. With a
population of well over one billion, and rising at, some would say, alarming rates, India is the leading nation in regards to population growth.
Currently, India holds the title of the world's most populous country, beating out it's most dominant competitor, China. It is estimated that, according to
World Bank, in 2007, 80% of India's population was living on less than $2 a day. Comparatively, in 2009, two
–thirds of India's population lived on less
than $2 a day. There is no denying that the population of India draws a connection to poverty, more specifically the poverty trap. A poverty trap is a
self reinforcing mechanism which makes it extremely difficult for people to escape poverty. Usually, it persists from generation to generation, and the
situation does not change unless extreme measures are taken. However, usually these poverty–stricken citizens do not have

5. Poverty In India
The issue of poverty has blighted India for several decades. It seems to be a vicious cycle that simply doesn't seem to go away despite continuous and
constant efforts of the government and the general public.The main argument opposing Indians make is that the programs to bring people out of
poverty are far too expensive to be paid for by the government. The government already gives out millions in subsidies, however poverty remains.
After, much research and analysis, the truth regarding the severity of the situation and the efforts made to ameliorate it, come to the forefront of the
argument regarding this topic. There have been several extremely relevant studies that have been conducted to try and address poverty in India , its
causes and its solutions. Chronic Poverty in India which is an overview study assesses chronic poverty in India by looking at the seriousness, duration
and multidimensional deprivation that have led to the current poverty stricken state of the country. For the purposes of this paper, the aim will be to
address poverty alleviation measures as well as the effectiveness of Government policies that specifically target poverty. Next, the book Red tape:
bureaucracy, structural violence, and poverty in India will be explored to analyze topics such as corruption, education and population policies which
will also provide insight into why, despite rapid industrial and economic growth, the country remains poor. After, the book, The state and poverty in

6. Poverty and Underdevelopment of India
Health– education linkages inequality in distribution of stock of human capital means underinvestment on the one hand and mal–investment on the
other, as total and per capita stocks of human capital figures in women and backward castes indicate. Perhaps, the main reason lies in the failure of
human investment revolution in economic thought to really revolutionize common thinking. individuals as well as state policy makers still perceive
education expenditure as 'consumption' and as a burden on the state which reduces public savings. it is misleading to treat public expenditures of
backward castes and women as 'welfare' but must be treated as 'capital formation'.
Poverty and underdevelopment of India does not permit adequate investment in general, including education. From the private angle, weaker sections
who should invest more in education have their present consumption needs focusing on survival where education is perceived as luxury. Even if people
took loans, they prefer investment in more tangible and resale able assets which yield higher ROR in short gestation periods to investment in human
capital. The state is constrained by its available resources and by its welfare expenditure approach to education. Further, the capital market is too poorly
organized to provide funds for investment in education. Thus to bring equity in distribution of human capital between different groups serious efforts
have to be made towards reducing discrimination in schooling, improving

7. Poverty Line Essay
What causes India to be below the poverty–line? "The proximate causes of the increased extent of rural poverty in India and in other low–income
developing countries are obvious: the growth of population and the continued dominance of agriculture in their labor force and because of limited
expansion of non–farm job opportunities. Those that fall below the poverty level make anywhere from 42 to 51 cents a day. Anyone that makes 40
cents and higher are not considered to be in poverty, but they would have to be going through the same challenges daily" (Kaur, 2013). Could any of
us live with so little?
India's rate of population growth of some 2.2 per cent has been relatively slow as compared to other developing countries" (Johnston & Clark, n.d., p.
405). "High population growth rate is one of the major reasons for poverty in India and the lack of success to financial resources" (Kaur, 2013).
Therefore, "There are a number of people in India who still live on the street and beg the whole day to eat a meal. Underprivileged children are
unable to attend school and those that have the opportunity drop out after a year or so. People below the poverty line live in unhygienic conditions
and are prone to many health problems. With this, the vicious cycle of poor health, lack of education and more poverty keeps on increasing" (Kaur,
2013, para. 3).
Also, "High population growth affects the per capita income and makes the per capita even lower" (Kaur, 2013, para. 10). With the

8. India A Developing Country
India is a developing country. The factors hindering development of the country are many. Some of them can be attributed to the low per capita income
and larger chunk of the population living under the poverty line. India is a country with poor people but with rich natural resources. It can be said that
the country's potential is either the human resource or the natural resources are not adequately utilized to the maximum extent and that resulted in low
per capita income. India is an agrarian economy. The economy is marred with unemployment and under employment. Since the economy is basically
agrarian, disguised unemployment is also rampant among the farmer community. Apart from the reasons mentioned, the money market as well as
capital market witnessed the presence of private moneylenders, landlords etc. They have acted as bankers for centuries and have amassed major wealth
from people of India that adversely affected capital formation. The need for a better financial institution and credit infrastructure was thus felt necessary
by the planning commission when the five–year plans were initiated. An efficient banking system and well functioning capital market, capable of
mobilizing the savings &channeling them to productive uses, are essential if the efforts at economic restructuring are to succeed. While both the
banking systems and capital markets have shown impressive growth in the volume of operations. Unless major reforms were initiated it was difficult to

Rao Abstract Though mostly outlawed, the caste system continues to be one of the key drivers of poverty and inequality in South Asia. This article
reviews the linkage between poverty and the caste system in India, Nepal and Sri Lanka. It also discusses the situation of the so–called Dalits

analyzing the relevance and impact of the caste system on poverty, the article is also based on an interview with a young male Indian, who experienced

He discussed what the Hindu scriptures say about caste as well as what the caste system actually turned out to be. The Gita, which is one of the
Hindu scriptures, states that caste is not determined by birth but by behavior. However, today people's castes are determined as soon as they are
born signifying an outside influence on the modern day caste system. With regards to Nepal and Sri Lanka, the literature on linking poverty and
caste is very thin. Shrestha (2002) offers some insights on how Dalits in Nepal are discriminated against. Heitzman (1990) discusses the history of
the caste system in Sri Lanka and how the Portuguese and the British played a part in shaping it into what it is today in Sri Lanka. Heitzman also
describes the impacts of caste on the lives of low caste citizens in Sri Lanka. III. Empirical Background South Asia is one of the most poverty ridden
regions in the world. Although the poverty rate (defined as the percent of people living below $1.25–a–day) has decreased from about 60 percent in
1980 to 51.7 percent in 1990 and to 40.3 percent in 2005 (see Figure 2), there were still about 600 million poor people trying to make a living in South
Asia. Specifically in India, there are still 350 million people who live on less than one dollar–aday (Waldman, 2005). As of 2005, the country ranks

10. Boleking And Poverty In India
India is home to over 1.2 billion people with 4 percent of the population being orphans.
India is overloaded with orphans and statistics show that the problem is not going to be getting any better anytime soon. There are many factors that
contribute to the reasoning behind the amount of orphans, like poverty and some kids being forced into sex trafficking and prostitution.
There are over 20 million orphans in in India because the country is very poor, some families simply can't support a child so they abandoned them,
and some children are unfortunately forced into sex trafficking. There are many reasons that India alone has 20 million orphans in their country but by
far the most dominant factor is poverty. Around 67 percent of India's population lives below the poverty line (10 Facts about Poverty in India). Parents
simply cannot afford to provide for themselves or for their children. Many children lack basic life necessities like nutrition, shelter, and care from their
parents, not because their parents don't love them, but because most of the time parents cannot afford anything. (5 terrible causes of the Orphan Crisis).
46 percent of children under the age of 5 are malnourished. 31 percent of infants are born with low birth–weight. All children in India are underweight
by 18 percent or more (Facts on Children in India). Theses truly statistics show how badly the country is suffering, and even worse how the children

11. I"If a country has widespread government corruption, then poverty will increase."
Country Chosen: India
Introduction
As India celebrated its 65th Republic Day in January 2014, President of India Pranab Mukherjee warned the country of corruption "as a cancer...that
weakens the foundations of our state" (Mukherjee, 2014) and " If Indians are enraged, it is because they are witnessing corruption and waste of
national resources"(Ibid.) Indeed, corruption is an endemic problem in India, with anti–corruption watchdog Transparency International (2013) ranking
the country 94th out of 177 countries in the Global Corruption Perception Index. Tens of billions of dollars of taxpayer revenue have been wasted as a

poverty is a big issue which needs to be solved for the world to function properly. A country which faces extreme poverty is India, with over 194
million people facing it. India is a beautiful country known for its rich culture, having the third largest ocean, and the world's tallest mountain called the
Himalayas. India faces poverty due to social issues, demographic factors, and economic constraints of the country.
To start off, the main reason why India faces a lot of poverty is due to discrimination among different groups. People in India get discriminated by their
caste. The caste–based segregation system was developed back in the days by the Hindu religion. The caste–based system has four levels. Which
consist of the Brahman, Kshatriya, Vaishya, and Shudras. In the hierarchy, the Brahman are ranked first, which consists priest and teachers. After,
Kshatriya falls under, this consists warriors or rulers. Then, Vaishya comes third which is made up of farmers, traders, and merchants. Lastly, Shudras
fall under which consists of laborers. The caste–based system dictates Hindu religion and people's social life for many centuries. The main problem

16. Causes of Poverty
There are many causes of poverty and inequality in both India and Afghanistan including the poverty circle, problems with population, poor governance
and a lack of access to international markets
The poverty cycle is one cause of poverty. Low income can lead to low savings, poor health, low levels of education and low demand which causes
low capital investment, low productivity which can lead to further low income. For example in India and Afghanistan a large percentage of the people
living below the poverty line are illiterate. 45% of people living below the poverty line in India are illiterate compared to 26% of population.
Additionally, in Afghanistan, 75.6% of poor people are illiterate. This means that poor people in Afghanistan face higher unemployment (8%) and
underemployment (41%) and are more likely to work in agriculture (43.6%) or in the informal sector (84.3%) where they earn low and inconsistent
wages.
Another cause of poverty is inequality which can reinforce relative self–perpetuating poverty. One reason is that when there is a big wealth gap
between the richest section of the population than the poorest section. There may be more investment in urban areas for the wealthy urban population
than the poorer rural population. In India 80% of their poor population lived in rural areas while in poverty in Afghanistan is concentrated in rural
areas as four out of five people live in rural areas.

time the condition of Indian economy and society was very worse. When India got freedom from Britishers in 1947 it tried to develop. The main
focus of Indian policies makers was on the eradication of poverty. Five years plan was made for the purpose of eradication of poverty. But still there
are so many problems in the elimination of poverty. Some important barriers are as follows–

are unable to provide employment to our citizens in a good ratio. A large part of our population is illiterate and engaged in un–skilled sector, which is
cause of poverty.
