400 million in India may fall deeper into poverty: ILO

It's so moronic though. The shear number of people voting for Hindu Extremism even though they know it's pure evil.

The educated Indian class misled into believing they were voting for the development plank model of Gujarat, which itself was lopsided development, big biz getting all the perks like Adani and Ambani.

But a large number of them had this idea of revival and renaissanice of Hinduism, it is in danger from Islam, Muslim population is increasing in India, such kind of indoctrinated thoughts from the RSS paracharks, many believed this to be true.

Media controlled by the BJP also used to the fullest...funded by the Ambanis and the likes of them.
So it is true that educated Indians also voted for the BJP.

For a nation that brags day and night about being superior these news stories and stats don't look very promising.

Impossible. India is too big to fail apparently.

Anyway, how is it that while Chinese GDP was growing, hundreds of millions of it's population was lifted out of poverty but when Indian GDP is apparently growing, hundreds of millions of its population is falling into poverty?

I think Modi is growing his beard for a reason.
