I defend the statement that "rapid increase in economic growth surely trickles down to the people under the absolutely poor category as:
(i) GDP Growth is an ultimate solution: When the pace of GDP growth is accelerated new opportunities of employment are generated. Greater the employment, more inclusive would be the growth process implying lesser poverty.
(ii) Population control : Poverty can be removed only if growth rate of population is controlled so that increase in GDP is transferred into increase in per capita GDP.
(iii) Stability in Price level : Price stability is also an essential pre-requisite of poverty alleviation. If prices continues to rise, then standard of poor people will continue to deteriorating.
