India
Sixty five years of Independence! What did we achieve in these 65 years is a rhetorical question for which answers can be affirmative and negative. No doubt that India is a safer country, a country where the living cost is cheaper. This is the place where you can have the speech freedom complaining the system without providing any suggestions or alternative. India is fast developing and all Indians dream of becoming a developed nation by 2020, it’s high time for we Indians to think whether we can achieve this target within a short span of about eight years. We all Indians started dreaming about this prestigious target a couple of years ago and it was fueled by the words of our former president APJ Abdul Kalam. But the present day happenings in our country and the world as a whole, force the Indians to rethink and analyse on our present economic conditions and our journey towards the status of a developed nation.
In India most of the people (about 60% of nation’s population) are living in villages. There they are not able to fulfill their basic needs of life. In those villages youth is unemployed; they follow unhygienic activities, which lead to serious health hazards. Youth is turning towards crime because of unemployment. In such scenario it seems very difficult for India to become a developed nation till 2020. It's been observed that crimes committed by illiterate ones are more in number as compared to the literate ones. Because uneducated people have no skill in their hand nor they have education to earn money. So it seems easy to them to commit a crime because it's the easiest way to earn money. So illiteracy gives birth to crime. Tihar Prisons reveal that 92 per cent of the prisoners lodged there are from the lower income strata of society .Indian literacy rate grew to 74.04% in 2011 from 12% at the end of British Raj in 1947. Although this was a greater than six fold improvement, the level is well below the world average literacy rate of 84% and India

    The proposition that poverty promote crime finds rationale thanks to a number of reasons. On the one hand, poverty is to be blamed for prompting the culture of idleness among members of the community. Humans always engage in pursuing some form of activities as a means for spending their energy. On the other hand, it is a common consensus that an idle mind is the devils workshop. Based on this reasoning, failure by individual members of the community to find useful activities to spend their time in implies their elevated risk of engaging in destructive activities (Winfree & Abadinsky, 2009). This is true given the fact that poverty is a root cause to the problem of chronic unemployment. Increased levels of poverty translate toreduced chances for securing sustainable socioeconomic growth and development in the community and hence promoting the culture of...…

    Over two thirds of India’s prisoners are under-trials, i.e. being held in custody pending trial. About 75% of such under-trials are illiterate or barely literate. Needless to say, the coefficient of correlation between lack of education and poverty is almost equal to one. Faced with overwhelming evidence of bias against the poor and marginal sections in the matter of arrest and imprisonment, the 177th report of the Law Commission, on the law of arrest in India, quotes Bernard Shaw to argue that “poverty is crime”.…

    “A nation's culture resides in the hearts and in the soul of its people”, claimed Mahatma Gandhi. This emotional phrase written by one awe inspiring person shifted one of the world’s largest nations. No human being could outlaw India’s exceptionally sturdy soul. India was given a female gender by Mahatma Gandhi, the humble man seeking freedom on his own soil. During his life, India was under the almighty British crown. For Britain, this enormous colony was a treasure providing salt, cloth, and all other lucrative goods. Not only did the British transform India into a thriving prosperous industrial nation, but they also kept all of the profit. This was one of the many problems the Indian people were confronted with. They were forced to get rid of their customs and eternal beliefs passed on by centuries of meaningful words. When the last bead of optimism perished, zealous nationalists like Gandhi stepped up. In 1947, the Indians’ courage, devotion, and true nationalism had achieved the ever desired, “Independence Day.” These people and their views had finally reached their beloved dreams.…
