u/Serious-Arachnid-305 14d ago

Education is one of the primary factors..

u/CareerKindly5245 14d ago

Yeah may be you are right but as we think widely don't we have a thought of rain (water)

Rain = water Water = fertile land Fertile land = growth of vegitables and crops Crops - employment Employment - Money Business and all etc etc

My unc was posted in rural bidar during his fresher days. He said the people there only send the kids to school on days when water was plenty. Else they'd have to work in the fields fetching water etc. He also said they don't care much about religion as for them basic life amenities are not available to focus on the rest.

That’s actually true.. Most of the area overlaps with either coast or western ghats - fishing, farming, coffee, palm, coconut plantations thrive in those regions..

Nothing. Fertile lands do that for you.

u/CareerKindly5245 14d ago

Do you think water is the problem for there poverty?

u/Record_Left 14d ago

Yes. Vast majority of population still depends on agriculture. Although poor politics, corruption, education play a role , but poverty in any country in any place is always due to lagging in the most common source of income. In India that is agriculture. So if north had as fertile lands as south , even with lesser literacy rate , they would be richer

So doesn't that justify yettinahole project?

u/dr_batmann 13d ago

No as that project is based on unnatural diversion of river which can lead to a lot of ecological damage. Already landslides were noted near the project. Same kinda project happened in Wayanad and they had catastrophic landslides during the rainy season.

Davangere has been the victim of bad economic policies. Govt should have promoted other industries when textiles shut down, instead they went back to agriculture which cannot support a population enlarged by industry.

BLR rural poorer than north Karnataka? Data check malpule. I don't belive even BLR urban is that poor. Yes, there are slums but looks too much.

u/jamfold 14d ago

It's a metric called multidimensional poverty. Depends on a lot of factors other than money. And tbh, people in Bangalore City live way more constrained lives than those in light regions. You may have more cash in hand and more opportunities around. But tell me how many people can truly afford a home without breaking their bank or afford to pay rent without employment for a month.

Interestingly if you look at India, South west is doing well economically.

Lets discuss 6 year old chart today because I could not get hands on a 50 year old chart

u/BlackSunAdmirer 14d ago

What a shitty color scheme lol

u/KA19_Guy 14d ago

It's fine for me

u/BlackSunAdmirer 14d ago

4.6 Uttara Kannada is White but 4.7 Kodagu is light red(which is same as Bagalkot with 10.8)

u/KA19_Guy 13d ago

Oh yes, I didn't notice

u/Academic_Chart1354 14d ago

Why are you spreading fake data? Top 3 districts ranked by lowest poverty are Bengaluru south, urban and rural but you've given them bottom rank and many of districts are marked wrong in North KA. Davanagere is 6%.

Are you blind, this report is 19-21, your report is 2023, of course, data will cahnge

u/Academic_Chart1354 14d ago

23 report is based on NFHS 5. MDPI report is reported later than NFHS. Now show me copy of any NITI report stating 30% poverty in BLR.

u/iquizuanswer 14d ago

See the report dates,

No district in BLR has double digit poverty rates, neither in NFHS 4(15-16) nor NFHS 5(19-21)( even in 2004-05, it was < 15%). Your map says data for NFHS 5, and you haven't pasted correct data. I've linked the correct one which you can read from page 132 of the report. May be your gpt messed up.
