India has made huge economic progress. However the nature of this progress masks huge disparities in development that must be addressed.
The greatest challenge is to eradicate poverty and stimulate social justice.
The government has to take the lead by developing and investing in rural development, agriculture, education, and health. INDIA800 and civic society organisations have a key role to play in sharing their understanding of what works and what does not.
This can assist in developing innovative solutions, and delivering key programmes that ensure inclusivity.
We live in a un-precedented, contradictory era where hunger soars amid record harvests; and extreme poverty and wealth exist alongside one another. |
