Today, poverty can be defined in terms of the psychological needs along with other needs.

Poverty is considered in two concepts namely, relative poverty and absolute poverty. Relative

poverty means a comparative concept of one’s income with the income of another. Here the

fulfillment of daily basic needs is not taken into account. The absolute poverty refers to the fact

that the daily basic needs are not fulfilled. This kind of poverty is found in the developing

countries, like India, Pakistan, Srilanka, Bangladesh etc.

Causes of Poverty

Population Explosion: If the population growth of the last decade is compared it is obvious that

there is an alarming figures and facts, which can make the planning commission and the governments spellbound.

Low Literacy rate: As regards the literacy rate, it is the reflection of the rural india and

Chhattisgarh, that inspite of so many literacy programmes and the education policy in the nation,

so many people are uneducated. Due to which the rate of poverty is increasing day by day. The

data given below depicts the picture of literacy rate of India and Chhattisgarh.

Economic Backwardness of the county: This situation is found in the rural areas, where most of

the farmers are involved in the agriculture work. More than 50% farmers depend on the mansoon

for the cultivation work, since the irrigation facilities have not been provided. Economically, the

country is backward. It is also reflected due to less production in the industrial sector.

 Lack of Employment and Commercial oriented education: India has progressed a lot compared

to the last two decades in the field of education. However there is lack of job-oriented education.

People in general are not so aware of the fact that in what way they will be able to get jobs. How

to identify the nature of jobs and how to prepare for the same. Hence a proper guidance is

required according to the present situation.

 Casteism: Casteism is one of the main hinderances in the path of development. It enhances the

poverty more especially in the rural area.

Suggestive Solution to Mitigate the Poverty

 Population control: It is very important to control population-explosion in the country. Due to

this problem the other problems, like, poverty, unemployment, illiteracy, inhumanness,

terrorism, murders, suicides, crimes, dacoits etc. are erupting like mushrooms in the society.

 Commercial and job-oriented education: India needs to give enough attention on the job-oriented

education.

 Development of the basic infrastructures in the country: It is a call of the time that the basic

infrastructure facilities have to be developed.

 Along with the above mentioned points, there should be increase in the literacy rate, increase in

the employment opportunities, increase in the production of the agriculture crops (5.6%

agriculture growth rate), enhancing the industrialization, increase in the credit facilities etc.

Moreover, an honest and sincere implementation of the schemes and programmes related to poverty alleviation.
