There were a number of causes for the widespread poverty in India. One historical
reason is the low level of economic development under the British colonial
administration. The policies of the colonial government ruined traditional
handicrafts and discouraged development of industries like textiles. The low rate
of growth persisted until the nineteen eighties. This resulted in less job
opportunities and low growth rate of incomes. This was accompanied by a high
growth rate of population. The two combined to make the growth rate of per
capita income very low. The failure at both the fronts: promotion of economic
growth and population control perpetuated the cycle of poverty.
With the spread of irrigation and the Green revolution, many job opportunities
were created in the agriculture sector. But the effects were limited to some parts
of India. The industries, both in the public and the private sector, did provide some
jobs. But these were not enough to absorb all the job seekers. Unable to find
proper jobs in cities, many people started working as rickshaw pullers, vendors,
construction workers, domestic servants, etc. With irregular small incomes, these
people could not afford expensive housing. They started living in slums on the
outskirts of the cities and the problems of poverty, largely a rural phenomenon
also become the feature of the urban sector.

a. Why they were unable find jobs in cities? (1)
