ESSAY:
"Poverty is the present of revolution and crime". (Aristotle)
Poverty is a serious problem of the world. It has made the life a constant pain for the most of the human beings. Millions of people living on this planet are in such a state of mind that they do not know what to do and where to go to make both ends meet. It is alarming that the 46 percent of the world population is facing poverty at this time. The conditions in Pakistan are even worse. The greater part of our population which lives in villages, is facing this curse, whereas being an agricultural country the main source of the income depends on them. Now we are going to ponder over the causes of poverty.
The main cause of poverty is tremendous increase in population. Now people living on this planet are more than even before. It is becoming more and more difficult for the inhabitants of the world to make both ends meet. A large number of people sleep hungry all the night and wander here and there in search of jobs in the day which may satisfy their appetite.
Another big cause of poverty particularly in our country is illiteracy and ignorance. It is an open secret the nations who acquire knowledge especially of science and technology have become advanced and modern but on the other hand uneducated nations are lagging far behind them.
Abnormal conditions of some countries have also added to the poverty of there such as terrorism, disputes with other nation, floods, epidemics and diseases etc.
Power crises is also another cause of poverty in the related countries as it is in Pakistan these days. It is harmful to almost all the resources of the country. It not only makes government unstable but also makes the masses poorer and poorer.
Now some steps to eradicate the poverty are suggested as disappointment is not the solution of any problem rather it itself is another big problem. They say, where there is a will there is a way but prior to creating will power the realization of the seriousness and intensity of the situation is essential.
Serious efforts to check the rapid growth of population must be made on the part of the government and that of every sensible citizen of the country. Unless this dangerous rate of increase in population is checked no effort to eradicate poverty can succeed.
Our educational system produced only clerks, teachers and such other servants who can do only specific type of job. Now the government cannot provide jobs to all the educated people. So it is need of the hour to open teaching institutes for the technical and professional education. In this way, the successful students will be able to earn a respectable living after the completion of their technical education.
" Poverty is the worst form of violence". (Anonymous)
The government should take immediate steps to eradicate poverty from the country. Jobs should be provided to jobless youth. Easy loans may be given to the jobless to run their own business. Farmers may also be helped in shape of subsidy and agricultural loans and law and order situation may be restored to encourage foreign investors to invest in the country. If all these steps are taken sincerely, the poverty can be eradicated and the march to the destination of prosperity can be started.
"If the misery of the poor be caused not by the laws of nature, but by our institutions, great is our sin". (Charles Darwin)
