Beggary: Poverty and Chief Commissioner
OBJECTIVES
• To know whether India being a developing country is facing problems related to begging.
• To know whether people who are begging have genuine reason to do so. If not then who is behind such a thing.
• To know whether the laws made by the government are sufficient for eradicating begging from the streets.
HYPOTHESIS
• That India is facing a grave problem: begging and it hinders the growth of the country.
• That, a meagre amount of people has genuine reason to beg, the rest are considering it to be their profession.
• That the laws made by the government are not sufficient as it has done little to eradicate the beggars from the streets.
INDIA AND ITS PROBLEM
Averaging an economic growth rate of 7.5% during the last few years, India has more than doubled its hourly wage rates during the last decade. Moreover, since 1985, India has moved 431 million of its citizens out of poverty, and by 2030 India's middle class numbers will grow to more than 580 million. Although ranking 51st in global competitiveness, India ranks 16th in financial market sophistication, 24th in the banking sector, 27th in business sophistication and 30th in innovation, ahead of several advanced economies. With seven of the world's top 15 technology outsourcing companies based in India, the country is viewed as the second most favourable outsourcing destination after the United States. India's consumer market, currently the world's thirteenth largest, is expected to become fifth largest by 2030. Its telecommunication industry, the world’s fastest growing, added 227 million subscribers during 2010–11its automobile industry, the world's second-fastest growing, increased domestic sales by 26% during 2009–10, and exports by 36% during 2008–09.
Despite impressive economic growth during recent decades, India continues to face a number of socio-economic challenges. India contains the largest concentration of people living below the World Bank's international poverty
