India a country with endless traditions and cultures,the wonder filled in the beauty of this country despite its vast customs and religions is still a factor of mystery.But in this country,so called modern India ,the rich get richer and the poor get poorer.Now this is not a factor of tradition or culture but purely a structural issue in the social engineering of India.
The number of farmers who suicide in India increases every year, every hour unable to make a living after making the wealthy live happily.It is a shame to the nation as these men who produce the rice,wheat and maize for the entire nation are not able to feed their own families.Has anyone wondered why?
Poverty is not new to India and farmers were never known to be rich.But a person terminates himself only when the situation is so grave.The sole reason is that,they are being cheated and not given enough reward for the work they do.The government policies towards agriculture may also bear a part of the blame.Each time a policy is taken away ,it is an add on to their struggle.A farmer in India is not even given one by eighth of the profit.So who takes them all?
As a contrast ,the liquor tycoons of India become richer day by day.This was the social engineering problem that I was talking about in the beginning.There are two categories of things they are 'needs' and 'wants'. A need is something you have to have.Whereas a want is a desire for something.A man producing the 'needs' struggles to beat poverty and the man producing the 'want' which is truly superfluous ,lives a life of riches.
Redesigning this social issue,uplifting the poor and considering all Indians as equal partners whether a poor farmer or a rich businessman will enable the nation to achieve a higher step towards unity and will give a strong sense of national integrity.
