What is the definition of poverty?

There is no common definition for poverty that is accepted by all countries and organisations. Generally poverty refers to material deprivation and the state of being deficient in means of subsistence. What is more useful in defining poverty is to look at different measurements of poverty which is used. For example, the United Nations use the Human Poverty Index to rate the poverty of a country. There is also the Multidimensional Poverty Index used by the World Bank. Another measurement or index used is the Human Development Index, as well as the Human Deprivation Index. To complicate this further some measurements also focus on one aspect or group, like the Gender Poverty Index, the Gender Development Index or the Water Poverty Index. All of this shows that defining poverty is extremely complex as there is still no agreement on what poverty is exactly.


Overpopulation is a hindrance to economic development?

More people need more stuff for their survival and will do anything for it. Education will have to be provided, but the people who are BPL (below poverty line) will not be able to afford it. Moreover, they will need to maintain their health which will not be possible for them. So, these people will not be able to do anything for the economic development of the nation because they will be poor and uneducated. More people - more - more poverty - more poor It is also in the hands of the govt. , you know. If it can eradicate poverty , then great. If not , then too bad.
