Inequality threat to Indian power from BBC news

Today,it is said that in the more economically developed regions you can see such rapid change that only a year seems to be equivalent to 10 years of progress in Japan.
However, it is true that the economy grows made social inequality.
Needless to say, income inequality condition in developed countries is much better than in developing countries but I think it's important to notice that the causes of income inequality problems are related not only to economic factors but also to non-economic factors such as political, social and cultural factors.

  1. Good! In regard to the word "scavenge" it would have been better to quote the sentence used in the article: "Lakshmi from Mumbai works with her husband, scavenging among other people's waste trying to scrimp together enough to sell on and scrape together enough to live on."
