There is nothing wrong in rich becomes richer. On the otherhand, the money allocated for poverty alleviation is siphoned off by politicians and executives including IAS officers. Poor people cannot expect any govt to do miracles to uplift their living standards. They have to take pains to become literate, work hard intelligently and come up on their own. They only things can change. If you give money, to a drunkard, what will happen, he will go the bar/arrack shop and drink. Only through education poor people can improve their lot, which is not going to happen in the near future under the present dispensation.
