Answer 1

Answer:

1. The main causes of poverty in India are low economic growth during the colonial rule, population explosion, lack of job opportunities, Irregular low-paying employment, inequitable distribution of resources and indebtedness.

Anti-poverty measures taken by the Indian government are based on two main objectives: Increasing economic growth in the country and launching anti-poverty programmes for specific groups of people. Economic growth provides more resources and opportunities for human resource development like education, training and healthcare.

The Government of India has launched several anti-poverty programmes like the Prime Minister Rozgar Yojna, Rural Employment Guarantee Programme and Swarnajayanti Gram Swarozgar Yojna which are aimed at generating self-employment opportunities in rural areas.

The Prime Minister Rozgar Yojna was launched in 1993 to create self-employment opportunities for educated, unemployed youths in rural areas and small towns. This programme assists such people in setting up small industries and business.

The Rural Employment Guarantee Programme launched in 1995 also aims to generate self-employment opportunities in rural areas and small towns. The Swarnajayanti Gram Swarozgar Yojn2. a started in 1999 aims at organising poor families into self-help groups and providing them bank loans and government subsidies to start small businesses and industries.

2nd answer

Interstate disparities in layman’s terms are the proportion of poor people of one particular geographical boundary or State is not the same in other States as well. In other words, the amount of poor people is not the same as other states.

In India, it is recorded that Orissa and Bihar are the two states which are the poorest with poverty ratio of 47 and 43%. There is however a decline in the rate of poverty in the states of Kerala, Jammu and Kashmir, Andhra Pradesh, Tamil Nadu, Gujarat, West Bengal, Punjab and Haryana.
