Hey,
Mahak here
Here is the answer you were looking for:
I) Colonial rule:

One of the basic reason is colonial rule. It discouraged the handicrafts and the industries like textiles.

II) Unemployment:

Unemployment is the major reason for poverty in India because of less jobs for people. There are many people who are educated but remain unemployed.

III) The growth of population:

It is one of the most important reason for poverty in India. The population growth of India is always inclining.

IV) Low growth of economic growth:

The economic development rate of India is increasing since 1951 but the economic growth rate of India has always been less from the population rate of India.
