Macroeconomic Policy- As A Measure To Reduce Poverty In India

Gurdas Singh

Published By : Laxmi Book Publication

Abstract :

Poverty is a multidimensional problem which is not concerned only to economics but it is also concerned with social, political and cultural issues. Therefore, solutions to poverty cannot be based exclusively on economic policies, but requires a comprehensive set of wellcoordinated measures. Why we are to focus on Macroeconomic issues? The reason behind is very simple that among all issues economic growth is a single most important factor influencing poverty. Hence macroeconomic policy becomes a key component of any poverty reduction strategy.
