Re: Cause And Effect Of Poverty

Poverty refers to a situation when people are deprived of basic necessities of life. It is often characterized by inadequacy of food, shelter and clothes.

Poverty in India

Poor people migrate from rural areas to cities and towns in search of
employment/financial activity.

The income of more than 8 crore urban people is estimated to fall below
poverty line (BPL).

In addition to this, there are around 4.5 crore urban people whose income
level is on borderline of poverty level.

A income of urban poors is highly unstable. A large number of them are

either casual workers or self-employed.

Banks and Financial institutions are reluctant to provide them loan because
of the unstable income.

Five states that constitutes around 40% of all urban poor people of India are
Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, Rajasthan, Odisha, and Madhya Pradesh.

Around 35% of the total population of the four metro cities (Delhi, Kolkata,
Chennai and Mumbai) consists of slum population.

A large portion of people living in slums are illiterate.

The initiatives taken to deal with the problem of urban poverty has not
yielded the desired results.
