South Asia 5% poor in India? Union govt claim debunked, '26.4% of population below poverty line'

Short Summary: A recent paper, referring to the Household Consumption Expenditure Survey (HCES) 2022-23 of the Government of India (GoI), has debunked the official claim that poverty has substantially declined. Titled "Poverty in India: The Rangarajan Method and the 2022–23 Household Consumption Expenditure Survey", the paper—authored by scholars CA Sethu, LT Abhinav Surya, and CA Ruthu—states that "more than a quarter of India’s population falls below the poverty line."
Bangladesh has capacity to produce 150% of the electricity it needs at the moment. In fact the govt. has decided to shut down small unprofitable electricity generation plants - there are too many of them. Besides there are dozens of new high efficiency plants in the pipeline, some of them nuclear.

The deal with Adani was made to siphon money to India illegally and was made by corrupt Hasina, there is no need to carry on with the deal and Bangladesh reserves the right to unilaterally cancel the deal and disconnect the electricity being supplied by Adani, which is continuing. Your information may not be correct.

Bangladesh really does not need anything from India, it can import foodstuffs from any country in the world.

It is India that is begging Bangladesh to buy its potatoes, onions and Chawal which it cannot sell in the global market because of glut and low quality.

In fact Indian farmers are demonstrating on the streets now because they cannot sell their produce - the glut has dropped produce prices to horrendously low levels in India. There are such news coming out every week now. @Saif bhai published something like this even last week.

Then why BD is buying Electricity from India. They have requested Adani to restore electricity supply. Why so?
 
Stop begging us to buy your low quality rice.

Godi propaganda does not pass fact checks.

We are not begging. It is BD who is begging rice from India. Your government begged 50000 tons of rice from India. India offered 25000 tons. You do not have even rice to eat and bragging as if you are food supplier of the world.

Do you understand the meaning of the English word "purchase"?

It means we paid money when we "decided" to accept Indian offer for rice.

If we need to buy with MONEY, it does not make us beggars. Clearly you have problems with comprehension.

Rice is purchased via govt. tenders, your businesspeople in India put in lowest offers, which were accepted (I'd say generously) by Bangladesh Govt. even after all the sordid History with Hasina whom Modi supported with her criminal oppression. There were entire RAW staff offices within Bangladesh who carried out oppression activities for Hasina .

Modi also tried to put in export bans on some goods (Potatoes, Onions) to Bangladesh after Hasina's ouster, which obviously did not work. We turned around and imported from Pakistan, from Turkey and Egypt. India is treading on thin ice, keep doing this laughable "punishment" BS and there will be total ban on Indian imports.

We have the option to buy from anywhere - but our govt. accepted Indian offer to buy rice, because the shipping is via land (truck) and lead time is low. Bangladeshis are being practical in this case, not just being boycott-hounds.

People in Bangladesh still have not abandoned the idea of Indian goods boycott on other goods.

An Indian goods boycott will harm Indian economy way more than it will the Bangladesh economy. Buying something does not make a buyer "weak".

It seems English words have new meaning in India.

Be Thankful is all I am saying. Modi et al should stop the impractical chest puffery and Dadagiri.

Your information is not correct, you are reading propaganda. Adani deal is finished more or less. We are segway-ing far from the subject of the thread.

Let's not discuss off-topic subjects.

Ohh Is it? Saying anything without knowledge/ Information is very easy.

As I said - news designed to placate Hindutvas. AKA Propaganda.

I know PDB insiders, Adani deal will be cancelled within the year.

Let's stop discussing these off topic things. Please open a separate thread about Adani stuff.

This will be my last post on this subject.

Even Bangladeshi news paper is also Indian propaganda. Anything which doesn't suit the Narrative of our Bangladeshi friends is propaganda.
 
Look at official data, in India 25% lives below poverty line, In Bangladesh, around 18%. It's okay, different style of bhikharees.

so your saying almost 36.7 crore people in India live under poverty like which as per western standards means less than 1.25 USD dollars a day thats 462.5 millon USD thats forty billion two hundred nine million seven hundred fifty thousand Indian rupees which is still more than what you guys earn from export to india in a month ;) :P

forget that almost INR 109 per person is good enough in India to survive where almost everything is subsidized for farmers and land less labour's that is the main reason why there are more than 10 crore illeagel kangaldeshi and rohingya bhikarees living in india and why you are agitating so much when India made a border fence to Stop Kangladeshi Paul vaulter's & criminals coming and polluting india ... if your so rich -pure and pios why not take all that fith back ?????

You don't have the money. You have not paid about 1 bn USD to Adani. You buy on line of credit provided by India.

Get off of Bangladesh subject for a second and think about the subject of the thread.

This is why people say that protein deficiency is a serious concern in India, it makes for demented and mentally/physically weak people who are easily manipulated.

Is this a newsflash - that there are poor people in India, way more than thought of prior? And Modi's policies are making the situation worse and worse?

You woke up today and find this surprising? You don't see slums around you in your cities?

You think people other than Indians don't know this? Hiding heads in the sand (like Modi prescribes) are gonna make all Indian problems disappear?

Whenever I feel too smug about my future, I watch the videos below and think how devastating my back ground could have been if I was born in India to these circumstances. Something to be thankful for.

Lanaat on people who try to not only hide this, but refuse to do anything about it. Selfish animals.
