Resources of the country should be utilised properly so that we can have the
benefits of those free gifts of nature. Government should take steps to spread
awareness for education so that the people do not have to depend on others for their
income. Agriculture is the backbone of our country. It provides income to vast
number of people. Hence, there must be upliftment of agriculture. Inflation tends to
make poor people poorer and rich people richer. There should be stability in the
price level of the country.
Government should develop cottage, handicrafts and other small scale industries in
the backward regions of the country. Moreover, this will transfer resources from the
areas of surplus to the deficit areas, which would help in reducing the relentless
migration from rural areas to the urban areas – the problem of urbanisation.
Therefore, one has to keep this in the mind that poverty is a menace and need to be
checked. The above steps would be helpful to reduce poverty in India. It is a national
problem and must be solved on a war footing. Eradication of poverty would ensure a
sustainable and inclusive growth of economy and society.
