BTW, not all of India stinks, just depends on the part you go. It isnt the 4th largest economy in the world for no reason.


Despite India's impressive economic growth over recent decades, it still contains the largest concentration of poor people in the world.[sup][140][/sup] The percentage of people living below the World Bank's international poverty line of $1.25 a day (PPP, in nominal terms 21.6 a day in urban areas and 14.3 in rural areas in 2005) decreased from 60% in 1981 to 42% in 2005.[sup][141][/sup]Since 1991, inter-state economic inequality in India has consistently grown; the per capita net state domestic product of India's richest states is about 3.2 times that of the poorest states.[sup][142][/sup] Even though India has avoided famines in recent decades, half of children are underweight[sup][143][/sup] and about 46% of Indian children under the age of three suffer from malnutrition.[sup][140][/sup][sup][144][/sup][sup][145][/sup]

Nigeria has the same problem with distribution of wealth or lack thereof. Only the top 5-10 percent of the country own a vast majority of the its wealth while everybody else lives in poverty.
