COMPLICATIONS IN INDIA
2 
India has made a place for itself as one of the fastest growing economies 
in the world, yet it loses behind in a lot behind in the name of growth. 
As the rich are getting richer and the poor get poorer, the divide has 
been expanding more than before.
CRUCIAL ISSUES FACING INDIA 
• POVERTY 
• ILLITERACY 
• POPULATION 
• UNEMPLOYMENT 
• CORRUPTION 
• INFLATION 
• VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN 
• GENDER INEQUALITY 
• CHILD LOBOR 
• SANITATION 
• TERRORISM
POVERTY 
According to the Indian 
Planning Commission’s 2013 
estimate, around 269 million 
people (approximately 22% of 
the total population) live under 
the poverty line. India holds one 
third of total poor people in the 
world, according to world bank 
around 32% of people are 
below the international poverty 
line and around 68% of the 
people earn only 2USD per day. 
This data states that people are 
living real hard time in india.
ILLITERACY 
The level is well below the world 
average literacy rate of 84%,and of 
all nations, India currently has the 
largest illiterate population.Despite 
government programs, India's literacy 
rate increased only "sluggishly,"and a 
1990 study estimated that it would 
take until 2060 for India to achieve 
universal literacy at then-current rate 
of progress.The 2011 census, 
however, indicated a 2001–2011 
decadal literacy growth of 9.2%, 
which is the slower than the growth 
seen during the previous decade.On 
one hand, India has a state like Kerala 
that boasts of 93.91% literacy in its 
state alone, while on the other hand 
there is a backward state like Bihar 
with 68.8% literacy rate.
POPULATION 
Today, India’s population is 1.3 billion, 
and it is increasing, is the second most 
populous country in the world. The 
figures show that India represents almost 
17.31% of the world's population, 
which means one out of six people on 
this planet live in India. With the 
population growth rate at 1.58%, India 
is predicted to have more than 1.53 
billion people by the end of 2030. It is a 
curse that hampers development and 
harms society. According to sources, 
India has about 33 births a minute; 
2,000 an hour; and 48,000 a day. The 
availability of resources is unable to 
meet the increase in population. With a 
rapidly increasing population, the 
resources per person will decrease 
further, leading to the next two major 
challenges that India faces.
UNEMPLOYMENT 
Unemployment is the major problem in India. This problem is not unsolvable. In india 
92% people are in un organised sector. some people are doing small works like 
porter, pulling a cart etc, they earn very small amount of wages. This could be solved 
if we youths unite and gain support of government and start some cottage and small 
scale industries, where people could work for their welfare. This makes Indian youths 
a role model to all the people in the world. So, government should give the 
opportunities to all the citizens by establishing factories, schools, hospitals then i 
thick unemployment will be reduced in india 
!
CORRUPTION 
Corruption is ruining the spine of the nation, and has adversely affected the economy 
of India. Corruption is widespread in India. India is ranked 95 out of a 179 countries 
in Transparency International's Corruption Perceptions Index, but its score has 
improved consistently from 2.7 in 2002 to 3.1 in 2011. Instances of corruption in the 
nation are many and seems to be never-ending. If India were a nation devoid of 
corruption, the poverty levels would have been much lower. Corruption is no more 
confined to one or two persons; it has become a huge network spread all over the 
country. Historically, corruption has taken the role of a pervasive aspect of Indian 
politics and bureaucracy.
INFLATION 
Inflation rate is defined as the 
annual percent change in 
consumer prices compared 
with the previous year's 
consumer prices.Inflation in 
India is an increasing 
problem. Inflation is currently 
between 6-7%. The past years 
have seen inflation as one of 
the major issues faced by the 
common man. The rising 
prices of basic amenities have 
created furore among the 
people. Rising rates of food 
items and fuel have affected 
the pockets of the middle 
class
VIOLENCE AGAINST WOMEN 
We live in a country where girls are 
neither safe inside the womb nor 
outside of it. Molestation, sexual 
harassment, rape, kidnapping, 
foeticide, trafficking. Women in India 
live under a constant fear all the time. 
A fear of going out alone, disturbs 
every female mind living in India. The 
rising cases of sexual abuse and rape 
across the country, have left a black 
mark on the reputation of India. 
Foreign tourists have been known to 
have been given special warnings 
while travelling to India, in fact some 
countries even labelled our nation as 
an unsafe country for women, after 
the deadly Delhi Rape case.
GENDER INEQUALITY 
Gender inequality is a very 
big problem in India. Gender 
inequality is rampart in the 
northern states of India 
which are also backward in 
education and cultural 
traditions. Kerala, a south 
Indian State has 100% 
literacy and does not face 
the problem of gender 
inequality. 
The southern states namely 
Maharashtra, Andhra 
Pradesh, Tamilnadu, 
Karnataka and Kerala have 
higher levels of education 
and traditionally honor 
equality between the sexes.
CHILD LOBOR 
This is the worst social evil in India. 
Children are exploited and are 
made to work in dangerous places 
like cracker factories. They are not 
treated properly. Like other social 
evils there are rules and laws made 
to stop the child exploitation but 
nothing has been ever properly 
implemented in India and hence 
you can still see teenagers and 
children working in the shops and 
factories.
SANITATION 
Our country still lacks proper sanitation and medical facilities, especially in 
rural areas. People are forced to defecate in open grounds; piles of garbage 
are dumped in the streets and flushed into water bodies; children in slums 
live with pigs and rabid dogs – all these give rise to diseases and epidemics. 
Fact has it that 80% of India’s population lives in rural areas and 20% in 
cities/towns, but those in urban areas get 80% of the medical facilities 
available and the rest have to make do with little or no medical help.
Terrorism has affected India since 
the day India was partitioned. The 
dispute over Kashmir between 
India and Pakistan has been a long-standing 
unresolved issue. Using 
this, the neighbouring country has 
often used terror against India in 
the worst manners possible. 
Uncountable incidents of terror 
attacks in Kashmir, and its nearby 
regions such as Srinagar, along with 
the major cities of the country, 
have been a source of disturbance 
very often. One such incident 
which shook the nation was the 
26X11 Mumbai terror attack, 
among the uncountable similar 
attacks. 
TERRORISM
SOLUTION 
The government needs to take a strong action against the biggest social evil of 
all. Ministers need to work towards creating employment, and providing 
enough for the large population which does not even receive the basic 
amenities. New policies are the need of the hour, not only for employment 
creation but also to create a young educated population. Education must be 
promoted at all levels of the society to create awareness especially among the 
poor. 
While pointing a finger on others is the easiest way out, people need to 
realise the need to get rid of the ‘under-the-table’ bribing habit and 
strengthen our system by neither giving bribe, nor taking bribe. The 
government needs to take strong action against a bribe-giver and a bribe-taker 
equally.
The government needs to take a strong stand against the neighbouring countries 
terror activities and needs to take action and not only hold peace talks. It’s the 
need of the hour that the citizens of the country are provided with security as 
well as an assurity of safety as well. A sensitive approach towards terrorists may 
be attempted to make them surrender. 
The government needs to enforce free education and strict rules to follow it 
in every family in India, poor or not poor. An educated population will 
eventually lead to the country having a stronger workforce as against the 
world. Education is sure to change the poverty and unemployment scenario 
in the country. At the core level, the people need to be made aware of the 
need of education to have enriched lives. 
The government needs to enforce free education and strict rules to follow it

eventually lead to the country having a stronger workforce as against the 
world. Education is sure to change the poverty and unemployment scenario 
in the country. At the core level, the people need to be made aware of the 
need of education to have enriched lives.
There is an essential need to bring inflation under control, and bring basic 
amenities at affordable prices for all. When will this economic divide be 
erased, is a question no government has been able to answer as yet. 
Before the government does anything about the security, the people 
themselves need to take a stand against crime against women. We as a 
society need to fight this social evil from within. The youth needs to be 
sensitized about the safety of women, and the respect to be given to 
women.Strong police action needs to be taken against the culprits, and cases 
need to be handled with more sensitivity and through a quick process. We 
need to see justice happen, and now.The country as a whole needs to be 
ready to tackle such social evils, along with the government.
This was the dream of our former President Dr Abdul Kalam, a man of great 
vision. He wanted us to see our nation as a developed one. “Why can’t we?” 
he asked. India is the 10th largest economy in the world; 2nd worldwide in 
farm output; 10th in factory output; and 15th in service output. 
If predictions are to be believed, India, as a superpower, will surpass the 
United States by 2050. We have the second largest population, and economic 
development is on its growth ladder. Our country has seen spectacular 
achievements, but are these material achievements all that a country needs to 
prosper? 
Even as India’s position in the global economy grows, it faces many grave 
problems today. The reason for all these problems at the grassroots-level is 
just one: The people of India. 
We give rise to all problems, either by getting involved too much so as to 
misuse power or authority, or by being indifferent to society and its welfare.
THANK YOU
Help your Motherland against wrong people 
around you and make the WORLD’s best place to live 
forever……!!!

  • 15. SOLUTION The government needs to take a strong action against the biggest social evil of all. Ministers need to work towards creating employment, and providing enough for the large population which does not even receive the basic amenities. New policies are the need of the hour, not only for employment creation but also to create a young educated population. Education must be promoted at all levels of the society to create awareness especially among the poor. While pointing a finger on others is the easiest way out, people need to realise the need to get rid of the ‘under-the-table’ bribing habit and strengthen our system by neither giving bribe, nor taking bribe. The government needs to take strong action against a bribe-giver and a bribe-taker equally.

It’s the need of the hour that the citizens of the country are provided with security as well as an assurity of safety as well. A sensitive approach towards terrorists may be attempted to make them surrender. The government needs to enforce free education and strict rules to follow it in every family in India, poor or not poor. An educated population will eventually lead to the country having a stronger workforce as against the world. Education is sure to change the poverty and unemployment scenario in the country. At the core level, the people need to be made aware of the need of education to have enriched lives.

  • 17. There is an essential need to bring inflation under control, and bring basic amenities at affordable prices for all. When will this economic divide be erased, is a question no government has been able to answer as yet. Before the government does anything about the security, the people themselves need to take a stand against crime against women. We as a society need to fight this social evil from within. The youth needs to be sensitized about the safety of women, and the respect to be given to women.Strong police action needs to be taken against the culprits, and cases need to be handled with more sensitivity and through a quick process. We need to see justice happen, and now.The country as a whole needs to be ready to tackle such social evils, along with the government.
  • 18. This was the dream of our former President Dr Abdul Kalam, a man of great vision. He wanted us to see our nation as a developed one. “Why can’t we?” he asked. India is the 10th largest economy in the world; 2nd worldwide in farm output; 10th in factory output; and 15th in service output. If predictions are to be believed, India, as a superpower, will surpass the United States by 2050. We have the second largest population, and economic development is on its growth ladder. Our country has seen spectacular achievements, but are these material achievements all that a country needs to prosper? Even as India’s position in the global economy grows, it faces many grave problems today. The reason for all these problems at the grassroots-level is just one: The people of India. We give rise to all problems, either by getting involved too much so as to misuse power or authority, or by being indifferent to society and its welfare.
