CH-3 Poverty as a Challenge

                                                                            CH-3 Poverty as a Challenge 


                                                    Summary 

We see poverty all around us. In fact, every fourth person in India is poor

This means, roughly 270 million (or 27 crore) people in India live in poverty 2011-12. This also means that India has the largest single concentration of the poor in the world.

 The following issues related to poverty: 

• Landlessness 

• Unemployment 

• Size of families 

• Illiteracy 

• Poor health/malnutrition 

• Child labour 

• Helplessness

Vulnerability

Vulnerability to poverty is a measure, which describes the greater probability of certain communities (say, members of a backward caste) or individuals (such as a widow or a physically handicapped person) of becoming, or remaining, poor in the coming years.


Social exclusion 

 poverty must be seen in terms of the poor having to live only in a poor surrounding with other poor people, excluded from enjoying social equality of better-off people in better surroundings.


Poverty Line 

At the centre of the discussion on poverty is usually the concept of the “poverty line”. A common method used to measure poverty is based on the income or consumption levels. 

The accepted average calorie requirement in India is 2400 calories per person per day in rural areas and 2100 calories per person per day in urban areas.

    11. Write a Java program to input basic salary of an employee and calculate its Gross salary according to following: Basic Salary <= 10000 : HRA = 20%, DA = 80% Basic Salary <= 20000 : HRA = 25%, DA = 90% Basic Salary > 20000 : HRA = 30%, DA = 95% Static Solution :-  class salary {     public static void main(String args[])     {     double basic=20000.50,gross,da,hra;     if(basic <=10000)     {         da = basic * 0.8;         hra = basic *0.2;     }              else if(basic <=20000)     {         da = basic * 0.9;         hra = basic *0.25;     }     else     {         da = basic * 0.95;         hra = basic * 0.3;     }     gross = basic + da + hra;     System.out.println("The Gross Salary is :-"+gross);     } } Output :-  Dynamic Solution :-  class salary {     public static void main(String args[])     {     double basic=20000.50,gross,da,hra;     Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);     System.out.println("Enter the Basic Salary
