According to the UNDP (United Nations Development Programme), OPHI (Oxford Poverty and Development Initiative) and Multidimensional Poverty Index (MPI) 2021, roughly 27.9% of India's population are multidimensionally poor. But here, the question arises among students: what are the causes behind poverty? Well, the factors responsible for the causes behind poverty in India are Famine, Malnutrition, Illiteracy and Unemployment. However, the poverty index's indicators are relayed, such as lack of improved drinking water, adequate nutrition or at least six years of schooling. Above all, poverty entails a feeling of powerlessness. Poor individuals face discrimination in every setting, including farms, factories, government offices, hospitals, and train stations. No one wants to be impoverished. You must be wondering where poverty comes from? Well, poverty is the common idea of the "poverty line". The income for economics consumption levels is a prominent approach for measuring poverty. If a person's income or consumption falls below a certain "minimum level" required to meet necessities, they are poor. The poverty line for a person was fixed at Rs 816 per month for rural areas and Rs 1000 for urban areas. India's accepted average calorie requirement is 2400 calories per person per day in rural areas and 2100 calories per person per day in urban areas. The person fails to meet the requirements and is considered poor. However, our government has taken numerous measures to eradicate poverty in India.
