POVERTY IN INDIA….

DEFINATION OF POVERTY… Poverty in India can be defined as a situation when a certain section of people are unable to fulfill their basic needs. India has the world's largest number of poor people living in a single country. Extreme poverty, lack of opportunity for gainful employment and intermittency of income and low standards of living are the main reasons for the wide prevalence of child labour. Though it is possible to identify child labour in the organized sector, which form a minuscule of the total child labour, the problem relates mainly to the unorganized sector where utmost attention needs to be paid. The problem is universal but in our case it is more crucial. 

WHAT IS CHILD LABOUR Child labour  is the practice of having children engage in economic activity, on part or full-time basis. The practice deprives children of their childhood, and is harmful to their physical and mental development. Poverty, lack of good schools and growth of informal economy are considered as the important causes of child labour in  India .Most of these children do not have a childhood and they have no education at all.

ABSOLUTE POVERTY… Absolute poverty is that kind of poverty in which is experienced by those who do not have enough food to remain healthy. About forty percent of world’s population lives in poverty.

RELATIVE POVERTY… Relative poverty is the kind of poverty experienced by people whose income falls considerably below the average for their particular society.

Poverty-line in india… Below Poverty Line is an economic benchmark  and poverty threshold  used by the government of India to indicate economic disadvantage and to identify individuals and households in need of government assistance and aid. It is determined using various parameters which vary from state to state and within states. The present criteria are based on a survey conducted in 2002. Going into a survey due for a decade, India's central government is undecided on criteria to identify families below poverty line.

9 STEPS to eradicate poverty in India… 1. More Employment Opportunities:Poverty can be eliminated by provide more employment opportunities so that people may be able to meet their basic needs" For this purpose, labour intensive rather than capital intensive techniques can help solve the problem to a greater extent. During the Sixth and Seventh Five Year Plans, programmes like Integrated Rural Development Programme, Jawahar Rozgar Yojana Rural Landless Employment Guarantee Programme etc. have started with a view eliminate poverty in the rural sector.

2. Minimum Needs Programme: The programme of minimum needs can help to reduce poverty. This fact was realized in the early seventies as benefits of growth; not percolate to poor people and less developed countries are left with no choice ex to pay direct attention to the basic needs of the low strata of the society. In the Five Year Plan, minimum needs programme was introduced for the first time.

3. Social Security Programmes: The various social security schemes Workmen's Compensation Act, Maternity Benefit Act, Provident Fund Act, Employ, State Insurance Act and other benefits in case of death, disability or disease while duty can make a frontal attack on poverty.

4. Establishment of Small Scale Industries: The policy of encouraging c and small industries can help to create employment in rural areas especially in backward regions. Moreover, this will transfer resources from surplus areas to deficit without creating much problem of urbanization.

5. Uplift of Rural Masses: As it is mentioned that India lives in villages, various schemes for the uplift of rural poor may be started. The poor living, in rural areas generally belong to the families of landless agricultural laborers, small marginal farmers, village artisans, scheduled castes and scheduled tribes. However must be remembered that Government of India has introduced many schemes from time to time.

6. Land Reforms: Land reforms have the motto, "land belongs to the tiller". Thus legislature measures were undertaken to abolish Zamindari System. Intermediaries ceiling on holdings was fixed.But it is a bad luck, these land reforms lack pr implementation. Even then, it is expected that if these reforms are implement seriously, it would yield better results which will be helpful to reduce the income of affluent section.

7. Spread of Education: Education helps to bring out the best in human mind and spirit. Therefore, it is urgent to provide education facilities to all. The should be given special facilities of stipend, free books and contingency allowance Education will help to bring awakening among the poor and raise their mental faculty.

8. Social and Political Atmosphere: Without the active co-operation of citizens and political leaders, poverty cannot be eradicated from India. A conducive social political atmosphere is a necessary condition for eradicating the poverty from its root.

9. To Provide Minimum Requirements: Ensuring the supply of minimum needs to the poor sections of society can help in solving the problem of poverty. For this, the public procurement and distribution system should be improved and strengthened.

Poverty in pune….

Dharavi …the largest slum.

What is dharavi????? Dharavi slum was founded in 1880s during the British colonial era. The slum grew in part because of expulsion of factories and residents from peninsular city center by colonial government, and from rural poor migrating into urban Mumbai (then called Bombay). It is currently a multi-religious, multi-ethnic, diverse settlement. Dharavi total population estimates vary between 300,000 to about 1 million Dharavi has an active informal economy in which numerous household enterprises employ many of the slum residents. It exports goods around the world. Leather, textiles and pottery products are among the goods made inside Dharavi by the slum residents. The total annual turnover has been estimated at over US$500 million Dharavi has suffered through many incidences of epidemics and other disasters. It currently covers an area of 217 hectares (535 acres).
