Marginalised Poor in India

India is a rich country, but Indians are poor. The plight of poor mass can be echoed in all our spheres. Since independence, Government of India has launched hundreds of programmes to uplift the poor downtrodden masses. This book narrates the problems of poor, marginalised, rural-urban divide, extent of poverty and poverty mitigation programmes, hence it is a one more attempt to throw light on the pitiable marginalised neglected poor. It also elaborately deals with various poverty eradication programmes implemented by government so as to improve not only economic conditions, but also creation of social assets.
