LIFE EXPECTANCY AND HEALTH
There are only 40 doctors per 10,000 people in
India, where as in United States, it is as high as
2300.
In the name of structural adjustments, the
government spending on public health has in
fact decreased after the Economic
liberalization.

POVERTY LEVEL
In India, it is estimated that about 300 million
people live below the extreme poverty line. The
number of moderately poor is much higher.
Since the reforms in the 90, economic
development has been robust and dramatic,
but the poverty levels show only a marginal
decline.

POLITICAL ISSUES
India was declared a constitutional republic and is
known as socialist, secular and democratic, but the
caste system still exists.
Indian central government was modeled on theBritish parliamentary system.
However, modern history has been cursed with
political instability, public discontent and corruption.

ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES
India suffers from many environmentalissues partly due to its rapidly increasingpopulation size.
There is a desperate need for newsustainable development techniques.
Indian agriculture is the biggest economicsector (employs over 50% of population),but 60% of cultivated land suffers from soilerosion, water logging and saturation ofsalt.
Another huge environmental issue in Indiais pollution in many major cities.
This is due to Indias relative poverty andthe governments lack of investment in
healthier, more sustainable industry andinfrastructure.

CULTURE
Indian culture is difficult to define. However,two main components are particularlyimportant:
Religion. Hinduism (over 80% of population).Extremely important to Indian culture, for
example, in terms of womens rights. The caste system. Social stratification in which
communities are defined by hereditarygroupings. It ranks groups of people in orderof their significance in society. The continuedenforcement of the caste system has caused
political instability and a lack of the freedomassociated with developed countries.

developing rapidly, but still has some problems.

and a rapid population increase. Due to these issues,development has been a difficult process.

human capital, there is much potential for future
development.
