Answer 1

Answer:

Poverty in India has become one of the major problems that our country faces today. Be it landless labourers, rag pickers, vendors or beggar's, all of them fall under the category of 'poor'. even though there has been a decrease in the population living below the poverty line, the problem still persists.

The given data compares the percentage of the population living below the poverty line across different states of India within two time spaces 1973-74 and 1999-2000. The decrease of the poor population is evident in all of the states it comes as an encouraging note that in two of the states the decline has been drastic. Gujarat and West Bengal has seen an increase from 48 % to 15% and 63% to 27% respectively in about 26 years. At the same time many States including Uttar Pradesh Bihar Madhya Pradesh and Orissa show a slow decline.

Thus, a lot need to be done to completely eradicate this social evil from our country.

Answer 2

A paragraph on the age-old problem of poverty is given below:

• A paragraph is a piece of writing. They are usually part of formal writings. Paragraphs are short and revolve around a certain topic.

POVERTY- An Age-Old Problem

If there is a problem that has existed since the olden times, then it is poverty. Poverty has always topped the problems of any country. Poverty is the scarcity of some/any resources to fulfill basic needs. However, the trends in poverty have declined in recent years but still exist as a big problem. Orissa has always been in a poor state. It is a minimal decrease in the reduction of poverty. In poor states like Orissa and Bihar, poverty has declined to about 20%. In States like Arunachal Pradesh and Gujarat, there is an enormous amount of reduction in poverty from the year1773-1774 to 1999-2000. We should take lessons from such states and try to eliminate the problem of poverty.
