Despite many efforts, India has not become a poverty-free country like China

Image
- The Conundrum of Economics - Dhawal Mehta - Two-thirds of India's total population still lives in villages Fr. W. 2005 and Fr. W. In the twenty year period of 2019, India has dramatically reduced the number of people living in poverty. It should be remembered that for this reason, the performance of both governments in the ten years of Congress from 2005 to 2014 and the five years of BJP from 2015 to 2019 has been excellent in the field of economy. During the tenure of both the governments, India's average economic growth rate has been above five percent which can be said to be much higher than America and other European countries. However, our growth rate of over five percent is due to our small GDP base. E.g. If your income is 20,000 per month, if you get an increment of ten percent of it, the amount will be Rs. 2,000, but if a laborer's salary is only Rs. 8,000 and he gets an increment of 15%, his income will increase only by Rs. 1,200, while your income has increas...
