Published By: PC on eSS | Published Date: July, 04 , 2007There is a view favoured by anti-globalisation activists, left economists
and the global/international socialists that faster growth in India has not
reduced poverty. A sub-set of these personalities go so far as to assert that

State gaps in income and poverty. On the periphery of this group are those
