About the Book
This book presents a powerful and deeply human exploration of poverty in India, moving beyond statistics to reveal the lived realities of millions. Through extensive research and on-ground reporting, it captures the struggles, resilience, and everyday lives of people who are often overlooked in mainstream narratives.
The content highlights issues such as displacement, health challenges, and the impact of development policies on marginalized communities. It brings attention to how economic growth and planning sometimes fail to address the real needs of the poorest sections of society.
Rich in real-life stories and observations, the book offers an honest and compelling portrayal of inequality and survival. It encourages readers to reflect on the true meaning of development and the importance of inclusive growth.
An essential read for students, researchers, policymakers, and socially conscious readers, this book stands as a significant contribution to understanding poverty and development in India.
