Question

how is illtercy responsible for proverty in india explain

Answer 1

India is developing but at a very slow rate, this is not the fault of a corrupt government; it is due to this problem of illiteracy only. Literacy enables a person to think rationally, to be understanding, to be more responsible and to make his/her own decisions. A literate person is aware of all his fundamental rights and duties. Literacy is the ultimate solution to fight problems like communalism, terrorism and under development. Our government is of the people, for the people and by the people, but what is the use if people can not even make the right choice? Illiteracy can bring down even the most powerful nations down, so if we are to become a developed nation, the government should first remove the problem of illiteracy by introducing effective programs with proper implementation and budget. It is ironical that even today, our leaders and people’s representatives give literacy a very low priority, pitting poverty alleviation, food, clothing, shelter, work, health etc. above it. They fail to perceive literacy as part of the development process, as an endeavour to improve the quality of life, as the process of building awareness among the weaker sections, as part of democratisation of political power, as the arrangement to give their due, to bridge the gap between the rich and the poor. They are unable to appreciate the relevance of literacy in matters like infant mortality, immunisation, children’s participation in primary schools, population growth, family planning, women’s emancipation, social evils like child marriage, dowry, bride burning and so on. Neglecting the issue of illiteracy can hurt the development of India very badly.

Answer 2

Heya

Here is your answer

________________

 Illiteracy is responsible for poverty in India as it causes the vicious circle of life where a poor  remains poor.

 Educated parents teach their children and make them more productive towards the  economic growth. They are more conscious about the education, health and hygiene of their  children.

 On the other hand, illiterate parents are not aware and conscious about providing better  education, health and hygiene facilities to their children. Thus they do not look for other  occupational facilities other than traditional one, therefore remain poor.
