We need to understand the basics of removing poverty.
by bihari babu on May 04, 2008 06:24 AM   Permalink | Hide replies

Ever since economic growth started in last 10 years there are so many poor people who has jumped to the next level (Middle class). Now we know the way. We have to keep providing fair business environment, with good infrastructure and local people with job skills. Thats all. Pvt company, multinationals (Indians & foreign) will come running to you. As they will set up shop/offices it will creat jobs for locals.
This is mantra of all rich nations. There is no other way. Communists, neta can keep giving big talks, ideology about helping poor, but we all know what these stupid ideology has given us in last 50 years.
Also we need to use media to create good consumer. Unless people involve in buying/selling they consume product/services (Depeding on capacity of course), why would pvt company come there.
So the basic point is to help creat a business atmosphere and jobs will be created, poverty will be removed. U look at Mumbai, why so many jobs, people earning good income. Same we have to copy on others town also. Jai hind.

i am not against modernisation and progress But rapid westernisation is making people forget their indian culture. If you conduct a survey the previous middle class, upper middle class is less happier than before. Poor class may be more better financially bu they too resent the high stress, low human values ,crassy materialistic life which everybody is aping from west.

I totally agree with this view. Not only we need to understand this point very clearly,
but also should spread awarness of this new reality of the modern world. Unless many people in smaller town, are aware of this nothing can happen. We can keep dreaming of strong nation. we can waste another 100 years, blaming politics, govt and gossipping about it.
this mantra which has worked for all rich nations in the world. Even communist china has said good bye to ideology and very strictly working on this formula. thats why they are growing at jet speed.
