How will India survive

India consists of a mass of humanity drowned in a sea of deep poverty. People are trying to emerge from that and government should help them out. Man does not live by food alone; he needs a small shelter, little medicine so that he has dignity to stand upright. What good are welfare schemes for the poor when “Poverty line = Rs.32” is the calculation that our ministers make to describe poor peoples’ position? So it is these miscalculating ministers who determine the fate of the impoverished masses?  They are just worried about their next re-election. How do the poor live out lives? They take care of each others welfare. The small job that a worker holds barely supports him through the rough times that he is going through. What makes him tick is that workers are extremely conscientious of each others food expenditures, and they are supportive of each other in many ways. They do not let each other down. It is this care for each others welfare that Indians pull themselves through in their working lives. They give each other dignity to survive. They cannot depend on the list of government’s schemes (MGNREGA, BPL card, PDS, Food Law, Old Age Pension, and Forest Rights Law etc.)The political dichotomy that two different ministers hold has clashed right now. Liberalization of economy has unleashed a kind of exploitation in which there will be gross inequality in the making of low economic levels where the poor will suffer and perish. And if welfare programmes are in full swing, the forces of market economy may be negated. So government wants the ‘survival of the fittest theory’ to be implemented; it is allowing the restriction of welfare policies and allowing poor to perish. When this truth is exposed, ministers will make fresh statements to pacify the press and the minds of the Indian masses. How long will this go on? There is no need to promote restriction on population growth in India. The faulty plans of the minsters are enough to lower the Indian population. We Indians are living part of that civilization which held fine values throughout the centuries. We are worthy of preservation and prosperity: and we should not perish. May God help us in building the future of India and allow the people to survive.
