extension of population........

Answer 2

Social grants are given to advantage the needy, such as backward classes, senior citizens, unemployed, disabled people, etc.

But sometimes, they put a negative effect on other essential services.

This leads to inequality, injustice and unreasoanble profit makers in the society.

For instance, senior citizens take advantage of their grants, even if they can afford full payment for same services.

This deprives many needy people from availing them.
