Nehru's views on Poverty and Hunger

Authors(1) :-Dr. Shazia Akhtar

This Paper contains the views of Pt. Nehru regarding the eradication of poverty and hunger. In India poverty is a hunger. Never having three basic meals a day. Poverty is not being able to send your child to the school. Poverty is watching your child die a senseless death from malnutrition or Diarrhea brought on by unsafe drinking water. Poverty is lack of representation and lack of freedom.
