Mention four main causes of poverty in India?
✓

Answer

Four main causes of poverty in India:
  1. The low level of economic development persisted for many years after independence and due to population increase, per capita income growth was low, increasing poverty
  2. The green revolution improved opportunities in agriculture, only in certain areas of the country.
  3. Socio-cultural and economic factors lead to extra expenditure, which ultimately increases poverty.
  4. There is unequal distribution of land and other resources, that is why there are large income inequalities also.
