Main reason of Poverty specially in India is the Population Explosion. The population is increasing day by day at a higher rate.
Poverty is one of the greatest problems of the world. It is prevailing in India since many years.The Government is not able to adapt professions for its growing population.And this results for many of them to have no occupations and some of them go empty stomach for days.They do not effectively contribute to the development of the country.
