The author argues that the schemes adopted by competing political parties, Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Congress party, to give money to poor people in India, need rethinking due to the difficulty of identifying the poorest in the country. Topics covered include number of people in India who live in extreme poverty, outcomes of the schemes launched by the Indian government to help the poor, negative effects of the BJP and Congress' schemes and the cost of eradicating poverty in India.
