Abstract

The lifestyles of people who 'live' in society are seen as having inequalities. Underlying all these ups and downs is the division between the upper class and the lower class. Upper class people live life with abundant wealth. However, the lower classes live in abject poverty, unable to meet even their most basic needs. In particular, the economic situation has been in a state of scarcity among the lower class. As a result, lower class people have to fight for their lives to get their basic needs. In this article, the concept that the government has introduced many schemes for their economic growth but not all of them reach their full potential is explored.
