,Introduction
In our daily life, we
come across many
people who we think
are poor.
They could be
landless labourers in
villages or people
living in over
crowded Jhuggis in
cities.
, They could also be
beggars with children
in tatters.
We see poverty all
around us.
In fact, every fourth
person in India is
poor.
