Hope for a better India.
With the ongoing pandemic of covid-19, all the countries around are facing a major challenge, however, the developing countries like India are more into trouble. We are no doubt developing each day but illiteracy, poverty, and corruption are still our top challenges.
On one hand, the digital market has. shown a boost, on the other hand, the lockdown has proved to be a prison for poors. They are dying of hunger. Many factories have faced losses and hence have to be shut resulting in unemployment. The daily wage earners are not having any medium to earn. The government, NGOs, and peoples are undoubtedly trying to help them, but at some point, they fail. People are not aware of all the schemes. Hence, the worst hit of this pandemic is these people.
However, on the one hand, corruption is still a major problem for all, some people, communities have actually tried to help the public with what they can. People are not only suffering monetarily but physically, emotionally, mentally too.
However, despite all other odds we have to learn and follow some principles to make India a better India.
Poverty has always been a major challenge for India; however, we need to start from the root cause to reduce this. We need to educate people. Not only the book education but the real education to deal with the practical world. We need to promote its infrastructural development and show our transitions to the world and prove that our culture is still there. We can help people to get vocational training so that they can be self-reliant at these times. We need to promote other stuff too besides education so that children can choose their career besides studies, if not interested in it. India is a huge market, however mainly occupied by foreign companies. India needs to promote startups at the root level so that even a village person can open his own place. If a minimum factory or small company can give employment to at least 10 people, the underemployment, poverty ratio will decline thoroughly.
No doubt, the internet has opened a lot of business opportunities for us, however, it has proved to be a negative sign for some. Many peoples have lost their jobs due to the boycott of manual work in their workplaces. We need to find solutions for all these, need to generate employment, promote skill development and try to make our students financially independent after a certain age, so that they themselves can pay their fees and be independent. This will not only decrease their burden on their families but will also boost their confidence.
To end with, India is an agrarian economy, so we need to train our farmers to cope with the upcoming trends. We need to develop new technologies to have healthy harvests.
All the above things might seem to be a challenge for India, however accepting these challenges we can challenge the world with a better India which will be self-reliant.
