India's poor question 'poverty line' policy

[vivekkumar-zekk]

i am from India, , i must say please, , when you cannot raise your kids, then why you give birth to them

[fauxmanchu]

India needs population control. What is the point of raising children in abject poverty? It is grossly unfair on the kids who did not ask to be born into a life of horrendous hardship.

[rbrine]

Solution - Reduce over-population - less people, less competition for resources. The ways out of poverty include education, women's reproductive rights, contraceptive use, and secularism -get rid of the Hindu caste system and enforce secularism. NRIs are you listening? Demand real change from your government.

[rcast]

than why have children If they can't get a decent home and food??

[Edlas]

Birth control is the solution to all these problems. Bringing kids to life in these slums is irresponsible. The situation will never be better.

[ahurabunbun]

Those people don't feel guilty bringing more and more babies into their terrible lives

[apriyanti]

This is so, sad  why rich people there do not want to help  people who are poor, india had most billionaires in Asia but why they do not help the poor????

Indian government please stop affirmative action for these people's.
Why they have so many kids if they can't give them basic things.

[lifewithhmel]

Why would they have kids when their poor they should not bring kids into this. The kids didn’t ask to be born.

[ChusanthKaAsliBaap]

No.1 Problem - CORRUPTION!!!!
For Bangladesh, India and Pakistan

[gedenironald]

Over 800 million Indians are extremely poor and people who will be considered to live bellow poverty line South Africa are considered middle class in India, this always baffles me.
