Item description from seller

Contents Preface. 1. Introductory. 2. Nature causes and extent of poverty in India. 3. Human poverty in India. 4. Poverty alleviation programmes in India. 5. Economic reforms and reduction of poverty. Bibliography. The poverty in India is a problem with some grave dimensions. India inherited a dismal economy from the British rulers at the time of independence in 1947. Alleviation of poverty has remained a major challenge before the nation even after 59 years of independence as poverty still persists in our country in its absolute and relative dimensions. Apart from low level of per capita income factors affecting physical quality of life index are also reflective of poverty in India. The Govt. has given special attention and great impetus for the removal of poverty and unemployment in the post independence economic planning policies. Several programmes and schemes were launched by the Central and State Governments from time to time to ameliorate the sufferings of the people particularly rural people. In the wake of economic reforms while the economy has performed well in terms of growth rate of GDP its performance in the form of human development indices has been not satisfactory. The current evidence available about population living below poverty line indicates the stark reality that the economic reform process did not help to reduce poverty. Social sectors like health and family welfare education and training employment and labour force social security and empowerment of women and rural infrastructure have lagged behind in the race for better standard of living. This book explains the nature incidence and extent of poverty and human poverty in the post economic reforms period in India. The book also explains and examines various schemes and programmes of the Government of India to improve the living conditions of the vulnerable and disadvantaged groups of Indian Society and comments on their implementation. 214 pp.…
