India's new generation between luxury and poverty | DW Documentary

- India, a nation on the verge of becoming a superpower? The country has overtaken China and is now the world’s most populous nation. The average age is 28. What dreams and what opportunities for advancement does this generation in India have today?
The median age in India is just over 28 years. That’s very young in global comparison, especially with western industrialized nations. How do young Indians, who are exactly 28 years old in 2024, experience their country?
A nation that’s often referred to as the world’s largest democracy, but where rising Hindu nationalism under Prime Minister Narendra Modi is resulting in repression and sometimes violence against Muslims. A nation where economic growth surpassed that of China in 2023; one with designs on becoming one of the world’s most important global players, both economically and politically. A nation of contrasts: Alongside up-and-coming startups launching groundbreaking business ideas, it’s estimated that one in every five people in India can neither read nor write. There are few countries in the world where the gap between rich and poor is so wide, where hunger and luxury are present cheek by jowl. At the same time, advancement opportunities continue to be determined by an officially obsolete system of social castes.
The documentary observes 28-year-old Indians as they go about their everyday lives. Some live in poverty in rural areas, others work in one of the many startups in urban centers. Some are members of the Dalit caste, also known as the untouchables, still marginalized in India today and often only able to find jobs that no one else wants to do. The film profiles Hindus and Muslims, an illiterate woman fighting for a future for her children, a businessman with a life full of luxury. What are their dreams; what prevents them from realizing them? And as India strives to become a new superpower, will it take all its citizens along for the ride?
Parliamentary elections are taking place in India from April to May 2024. Will Narendra Modi and his Hindu nationalist BJP party continue at the helm of the country?

Different shades of india. One side there is flamboyant lifestyle, growth, happiness, and dreams, while on the other side it's like a graveyard of broken dreams and shattered hopes. Well captured documentary. 💯
Broken dreams? More like having no vision at all. It's not like the poor children of today are living worse than their parents or grandparents.
Thanks for watching and sharing your thoughts!
@@DWDocumentaryMODI WON! 😂
Sounds like every other country...expect norway
their religion says one born in poverty is a person who made many sins in the previous life.
I have lived in Canada for 18 years and returned in the middle of pandemic to live in India (Punjab), I can confirm I have a much better life, living among people who show real emotions,humility & A genuine sense of freedom.
DW doesn't get it whom are you explaining
@@AttyDG what?
Yes,u are from Canada and has lots of Canadian money.Come as a miser and the same people will show you the doors.😅
@@aman6828 what has my money got to do with people? I don't go around advertising my money neither anyone ask for my money. Stupid logic ❌
@@aman6828 he wouldn't understand. People with privilege often don't see their privilege. That's the thing about privilege, you will notice it when it's gone.
Everyone was born equally but is living unequally.. What a tragedy!!
Everyone was not born equally whatever the fugg that means.
Not in America
Procreation is gambling and no-one is born equally as we are born with different genetics.
@@chitrali3115 what bout the homeless and the crackheads.
@@s-qc9nsleave about the luxury life and daily food. At least why can't there be cleanliness for all?! I mean clean road, clean surroundings.
I am an Indian sitting in UK right now. Studying here and thinking how I have to save up money to buy a laptop get job etc. I read a lot about the world, but somehwre I feel I am disconnected to this starta of society.
I though knowledge comes from, and it does, but only to an extent. I will never understand the pains a poor from Bihar would face, how he sees the country, the society etc. It's easy for people like me in India to debate politics over coffee with other students but how can any theoretical framework can enable me to understand their point of view I do not know. My country dreams of super power while having a majority of population earning less than 100 pounds in a month. This is just such a weird feeling.
India is no where near to become superpower. The main point which you mentioned that majority earns less than 100 pounds a month is one of the main reason. Income inequality is huge. There are super rich in India yes but the GDP per capita in India is stillike that of 3rd world country
indian govt is heavily investing for longterm growth. Dont worry India is on the right trajectory .
Brilliant 🎯
Happiness doesn't come with money. Otherwise American's Europeans would be the happiest in the World.
Everyone benefits when a society is more equal nor just in once sense but in more like gender & income.
In the nordic countries the inequality in different matters are smaller. Everyone has the same school system no matter your income it's RARE to not have your kids go to public schools, that are free for everyone. Even uni is free. You only pay for your literature and today with Internet & most having a computer or phone, that's not longer the same issue..
And many off them is considered to be on top off the world in many things. As the best countries to live in, how common corruption is, levels off pollution etc.
The rich tend to forget this & isolating themselves in their bubble - gated communities..

I hope the baby is well cared for.
I am from region Bihar, and let me tell you this portrayal of poverty in Bihar is not realistic.
While I agree Bihar is one of the poorest state, yet the the line "Nothing has changed here in last few decades" is NOT correct.
On the contrary, the condition has vastly improved only in last 2 decades, in the 90's you would barely see a concrete house in most of the villages, the roads were non-existent, no electricity, no medical facilities but now the situation has changed.
By and large my generation is the last one which has used kerosene oil lamps for studying even though I lived in a town.
While you journalists come with a different perspective and European standards of poverty, we compare our own past with the present which is a more dignified way to assess our progress.
How many of you know that in 80-90s, before India adopted liberalization, more than 50% of Indians were below the poverty line, the figure is now less than 10%.
I have studied in government school for free, I remember all my friends were poor from today's standard, and none of them can be called poor anymore. All of them have jobs, businesses etc. Even today education is free in government run schools and kindergartens, they are supposed to provide nutritious food, books, school uniforms etc, although education quality has hampered due to various reasons including political instability.
Poverty can be eliminated within next 10 years with the help of existing welfare schemes given that these are implemented honestly, their own elected representative at the village level has the responsibility to implement the welfare programs, but most of them are involved in corruption. Too much power lies in the hand of undeserving but democratically elected local politicians.
Modi has been successful in sending the benefits of welfare programs to the real beneficiaries by using technology for reducing leakage, that is one of the reason he has been winning.
A state like Bihar is a big problem for India other wise their is no this level of poverty of course poverty is their but 80% of Indians at least are middle class people and not that poor not very rich but not impoverished.
@@Roy1-ub9ij 31% of Indians fall under the middle class.
I know right ? You cant compare models in a one size fits all approach which is what Western countries tend to do a lot..
I am also from Bihar born in year 1991. My village got electricity in year 2014. For better life and mostly for my future my family migrated to Delhi in 1999. Father worked in a security agency at Rs 5000/- per month and mother at a local school at Rs 1000/- per month. Almost after a decade as new opportunities arose my parents returned to Bihar one by one. First my mother (for mere Rs 6000 job) in 2007 and then after another decade my father in 2018. I completed my education outside of Bihar. Got job after years of struggle while also keeping up with my education. In Bihar my parents salary rose significantly with time. Today if I compare my family's income to that of 1999, it has increased manifold. We now own a house in small town in Bihar and also two two-wheelers. We don't own any extra ordinary amount of wealth but there is significant change in our day to day lifestyle. I know it is not the story of every family of Bihar but documentary talked about anecdotal stories, so I also wrote my own experience for reader's benefit. In my family, we were not anyway extraordinary talented neither we had any kind of backing or resources. We were also not coming from any developed part of the land either (as I've alteady stated my village got electricity in 2014) but still we got economically stronger decade by decade. If in the hind sight I analyse perhaps our biggest strength was not our hard work or education. But the mobility, adaptability and unity. MobilIty, as we kept moving from one place to another for better job and education. Adaptability, because we used those places and situations to better ourselves. Our family remained close knit despite being distant for most of this period thanks to mobile and respect for each other's sacrifices which we carried in our heart, perhaps me being the only child also helped.
@@nihalpathak3407 Thank you for sharing your story! Only someone from Bihar who has witnessed both era can give a complete picture of growth happened in last 2 decades.
Indian poverty is depicted as there are no homeless people in the USA and Europe. 🤔
This video is about India, not other countries. It’s fine to criticize corrupt, unequal systems wherever they are.
@@down-to-earth-mystery-schoolit does not depict the reality
@@amrithMilW It absolutely does
They actually do cover in issues in every country, you can see their previous videos
@@fuzzywuzzy0549 nope dw actually over exaggerates things.Its propaganda most of the time.Soon to be germania caliphate
The more I look around the world, the more I get angry, the more inequality I see.
There are plenty of opportunities in India . Poor people not even sent their kids to school despite being that free.
It’s beautiful
You should put your phone down and go for a walk, read a book, swim, anything
@@s9ka972those free schools are intentionally kept poor quality so that their capitalist friends earn money from the schools and colleges that they opened.more than half of those don't don't function at all
@@s9ka972Even if school is free, is school accessibile to these communtities? I'm willing to be not, do they need their children to help out? Probably, it's not enough to just make school free.
Why 3 children? Most of middle class go with one kid, they know they can’t afford education and life for 3 children… but these guys want 3-4 children and then says can’t afford
Children are assets to them. That's common in agrarian and underdeveloped societies. They don't get education. So no investment. They help with work etc.
I think they are not lucky enough to find RUclips videos which can make them aware of finance related to family..
Where are the woman and man going to get birth control? They said it’s 2 hours to the nearest medical center
India even now doesn't work on fundamental building block.... free education atleast till high-school.
No country in the world got developed with this.
Why to even get married if can’t afford??
India still have long way to go. India still needs to help the hardcore poor, street children, child labor, city slum, running water, 24 hrs electric supply etc.
But what is the government going to do?!!! They need to do something about this!!!!! Why can’t they help the people to provide access to healthcare, education, housing, food, clean water, and other needs for the people of India need?!!! And air conditioning too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@@joelpineda4414it depends upon state to state. Electricity is there even in remote Himalayan vilages. Infrastructure development is happening in every sector. Some states are more developed than others.
“I thank the gods for being born into a ‘good’ family” That pretty much says it all.
Absolutely
At the end it's all about luck isn't it? Anywhere in the world , it's only about luck and destiny as to where you are born, so there's nothing wrong if that guy thanks god for his destiny
It is no surprise that DW is releasing this video just after a day Modi won
Thnx DW to depicting the real story of India. Here in India, local media talk rubbish and focus on one thing......Hat's off DW😊
Local media also go through this.
Bootlickers you don't even watch TVs bcz you think Hindi or Tamil or other languages are lame😂😂😂
@@pikachue602 Actually ur language is good . I think in ur family, you guys are talk with each other like this or there maybe problem in ur upbringing. It's ok ...
@@darklove0089 there's clear issue in your upbringing when you talk without facts..
Every media no matter how weird they appears to be they do go for research and bring good materials for the viewers..
The last scam of drugs in UP ,the trucks with loads of drugs in 2013 was brought into light by a Hindi channel..
I will not really go for Tamil news channels cz they are literally bought by one single family..
But others do their work well...

@@m.goodengumman3941but only if that education was market industry iT manufacturing skilled we can get skills after degree too computer, English and industry level skills. That's new business in India billion dollars industry to teach industry level skill courses
lol
It's tragic that human being have to go through so much hardwork just to get a job and become a wage slave
Good to young girls getting empowered like never before. Our Hon PM has given hope to many young ones to dream big and achieve too.
Your honourable PM is a racist Hindutva supporter who is destroying rather than harmonizing Indian society by creating more discord and separation between Indian citizens.
Sir you need to educate yourself as your ignorance about Indian social issues is astounding. Ignorance is curable. Stupidity is incurable.

The stark difference in economics, culture, literacy, politics, infrastructure between the North of India and its Southern part is mind boggling.
Its Common sense. south wasn't invaded, North was plundered by Islamic Invaders like Turks, Arabs and Mughals. So North India remains Poor and Backward because it had to start over from nothing. South is also more prosperois because it has accesd to Sea and Ocean, Making trade profitable, It avoided most of Brutal Islamic Invasions.
It wasn't always that way. Idnia was intentionally made poor by Islamci Invaders, Who find no mention in History. (Becuse the Leftists beleive it is offensive to Indian Muslims to even discuss how Islam was a curse to India, Perhaops it still is).
@@hindurashtra63 Tales from the deepest darkest slums of mumbai.... womp womp, yall were just pssies to defend
@@hindurashtra63 Huh? I dont know which history you Sanghis read. South was ruled by multiple Muslim dynasties as well. Only difference was that, these kings (Both Hindu and Muslim) gave importance to education of their people. And almost every religion flourished under Maratha and Nizam and Mysore's rule. While unfortunately, the North was embroiled in religious and caste strife for decades after independence.
But I am seeing change in North as well. Now, people are questioning their representatives. I am hopeful about the North. But Bihar and UP have a long way to cover.

This is such a balanced and real depiction of contemporary Indian society. India continues to live in completely different eras. There is huge population who is still surviving in pre independence era and then there are a small population which is living in 21st century.
Such a Balanced Documetnary with one common theme - "Modi bad". Who are you kidding ? They never show the other side of the story - Hindu victims of Victims of Islamic violenve, Corrupt Politicians who were jailed by Modi Govt, Righfully so and prosperity it has usherd for most people.
Its not small. Most Indians are now middle class. Otherwise no economic development would have happened across India.
All because of white supremacy that pervaded the southern hemisphere first as British empire and later thru multinational corporations. US and UK is fast becoming same as your observation of India. We already see such videos on RUclips. Wish the middle class white society takes care of its own society
yeah its a big fkin country.
You are very ill informed. This is problem of western rhetoric. Report by a whiteman is legit. The west will never understand India and its dynamics. What eyes sees, ears hear is always the whole truth.
DW i am no "male feminist" but i got into a discussion with Indian expats from the UK and Singapore n found that we are in agreement: there are some really basic things that is holding back India being a superpower! I once read a report from an Indian news network that quoted a policeman telling victims of rape to marry their rapist! I simply cannot fathom how a lawman can say such things - its insane! the few simple things that India needs to fix are
#1 Women's welfare and safety
#2 Laws against discrimination due to religion n sexuality. caste discrimination as you reported was done but what is the use if there is no enforcement?
#3 Free basic education?
holding India back from being a superpower or just building a progressive society where people have bare minimum and are treated failry.
Thats another 100 years of social progress needed.
Not only that but the climate change is going to hit them hard in a 100 years or so. It seems unstoppable at this point.
That's mostly a rural North Indian thing. Plus education is free in India.
@@fuzzywuzzy0549Imagine being poorest country and dreaming of superpower
I just can't understand why you always potrait Muslims as victims??

Thanks for watching and sharing your experiences!
No matter what, in western perspectives, India is the largest democratic nation. So it is better than China.😄
Ofc by weird policies like one child we don't kill people .
There's democracy there's little chaos and decision making issues.
But over all no one crushes the people here deliberately just coz someone in a hall think it is the ryt thing to do
Either read about how the Chinese political system works, or go and witness it yourself in china. Surprisingly, only people who are outside China make this claim. People in china do not.
❤I CERTAINLY AGREE WITH YOU!
I love India, been travelling all over the country for the last 35 years. I have a bad feeling the country will run dangerously short of fresh water before it gets to be a superpower.
India is incrementally improving on a daily, yearly basis....
And ppl like that entrepreneur are there too
Incredible documentary about Indian society lifestyle which separated between poverty of countryside and luxury of vast industrial centrals , dominate commercial centrals in large cities....thank you (DW) documentary channel for sharing
India is by far still the best country if you see the amount of people they are managing.

India is an incredible country, I've been there many times, it's truly unbelievable. But unfortunately not only in the good sense in the word. The general mess there is beyond belief, I guess the most shocking thing about it is how the whole thing just doesn't fall apart. P. S. Simran for president. Go girl!
India is a Union of states. Different nations living together.
@@arjunraj823 yep it's basically a continent. way too diverse but there are Indians who dream about Akhand Bharat which in their mind means brown people's union.
India is a rich country with a lot of poverty and very poor people

the background music is so annoying - why does western media think it's okay to add tabla and satar as background to literally anything Indian?
😂
Simran, as a fellow young Indian you make me feel ashamed of myself, I don't ANYTHING that contributes to society as much as you do 🙌🙌🙌👏👏👏 more power to women like you, only when the women are empowered will our country move forward 🙌
I wish I can do something for people like her. But I have to look after my family's finances too.
Great Doc. DW. The only way forward is to first acknowledge the vast inequality in resources , formulate public schemes and then implementing them effectively.
In every country there is poor and rich people... why is DW news fixed on showing only India in a negative way?
Just a Western thing😂
The entire eastern world is exploitative and excessive
German are protest every day
Great documentary. It really does break my heart to see what others in the poorest parts of the world have to endure. It's not fair. There's plenty of wealth in the world for everyone. There is no reason any one person DESERVES to have most of the world's wealth. Born into it or not, that money should be shared. NOBODY should be living in filth without the comfort of today's technologies. It's really humbling, and people shouldn't complain about not "making enough money," if they have a decent roof over their heads, 3 meals a day, AC, a car, a cell phone, etc.
It will take another 200 years for 🇮🇳 to be fully developed...This is not over reacting but actually the truth.
Not necessarily. China with similar population with 18 trillion has erased poverty .by 2047 india may also become 15 to 18 trillion economy
😂😂😂India will be way more than combined European Union economy but remember its earned by India whereas west has looted the wealth
Not really.
Deng Xiaopings reforms have been adopted.
Just because China made it, do not means India also will make it. Q
Through thousands of years China has always been far superior than India@@rejeeshsr831
Despite the wealth, ultimate cheapness and nasty attitudes continue when it comes to the poor. Continue to take advantage during every opportunity.
This behavior needs to change in India and amongst Indians.
Poor Indians tend to be kinder. The wealthy Indians can learn this.
Despite the reservation for poor people they do not take study , finance , family planning seriously there is no point blaming rich people.. nobody avoided poor people to be serious about finance and life..
Love the young entrepreneur’s statement, “if I am not getting something, I don’t deserve it.” Hate victimhood!
No ! Not always and what victimhood we must have freedom from exploitation unfair poverty
Totally illogical do u know the average income of the farmer 3-4000 pm with free rations and all if PPL from other countries deserve then we can deserve too
But that's not always true
How ? Explain !
I love India and its culture. Been to India twice and traveled to many places. Indo-Sino relations are not great but it should be. So many shared values about family, success, and working hard. 印度中国加油 Just modern day divide and conquer geopolitics by you know who *cough British and US*.
Yeah. As Indian, I would love to see Indo-Sino relation improve.
East or West. India is the best. Not surprise DW is desperately wanting them to criticize Modi and praise Islamist. 🙌
PM Modi won for historical 3rd term 🎉🎉🇮🇳 and by 2030 India will beat Germany and Japan to become world 3rd largest economy 🇮🇳 please DW show a documentary on that too if you are really not bias
Bruh look up GDP per capita of your country!!! It's like a 3rd world nation.. so don't get your hopes too high because that's how you improve in anything.
@@oopphh._.

@@spoidy3180 btw brother I'm not hating India... They are improving but at a slower pace so that's why...
India seems like a tough place, even for those outside the rural areas, or those in poverty...strong pressure to marry, intolerance for differences, pressure to live in close proximity to extended family...even if you make enough to live comfortably, that's a lot of pressure..
Well, on the bright side we don't have Racism, School shoottings, Vioilent Crime, Street Gangs, Single Parent Upbrining or Drug Menace here, unlike in the West. So we feel we are better of than the West and never look towards Western Nations as a Role-model.. Our Role-model are Nations like Korea and Japan.
Spot on!!
DW will report like this only ... I have lived in India in Pune , Mumbai ,Delhi , Bangalore ... I belong to the general class and have had no reservations or access to reservations .
It's not a pressure to live close to an extended family. Many don't. It's more of an Asian things. Even Indians living abroad try to get their family together. I wouldn't put it in a negative necessarily. Having a good family support structure is good for mental health. You guys can solve the housing crisis if you stopped stigmatising living with family.
@@GaganSingh-nx2yv I think so many of us here have dysfunctional families at this point, the thought of everyone being pressured to live together would cause more harm that good. I do think we could benefit from more adults sharing space, probably just not family members unfortunately.

Now, Coming Back WITH REGARDS TO INDIANS WORLDWIDE - The Richest Asian Americans are Asian Indians followed by Filipino Americans, Chinese Americans, Vietnamese Americans, Pakistani Americans, Japanese Americans, South Korean Americans and so on.
The Vice President of USA, Kamala Harris for few more months at least, has Both African and Indian Backgrounds (Indian through her mother). Ex CEO of Pepsi, Indra Nooyi has Indian Background. So Many Asian Indian American Founders and CEOs are doing Well Too Whether in Tech or Other Industries THAT INCLUDES THE CEO OF ALPHABET THAT OWNS GOOGLE while the CEO OF RUclips is another Asian Indian American. There are Lots of Global Standard Middle Middle Class, Upper Middle Class and Rich Asian Indian Americans in USA who are Doing Much Better than the Chinese Americans where after the Asian Indian Americans, it's the Filipino Americans and then the Japanese Americans who do well while Chinese Americans are Only the 4th Richest Asian American Group. But, Yes, there are So Many Global Standard Middle Middle Class, Upper Middle Class and Rich Chinese Americans also.
In UK, the Richest Asian Britishers are again the Asian Indians where in UK, Many of the Richest Britishers have Indian Backgrounds including the Hinduja Family, Lakshmi Mittal, Anil Agarwal and so many more.
Chanel CEO Leena Nair whose Mentor has been the exCEO of Pepsi, Indra Nooyi also has Indian Background.
Even, soon-to-be ex Prime Minister of UK, Rishi Sunak has Indian Background through Both His Parents where Rishi Sunak's wife, Akshata Murthy is a Non-Resident Indian. Rishi Sunak's wife, Akshata Murthy is the daughter of Indian Billionaire Narayana Murthy who was a Founder of Infosys that deals with Tech World Worldwide.
In fact there have been and there are still So Many Leaders of the World with Asian Backgrounds including Indian Backgrounds like Mauritius, Portugal, Ireland, Malaysia, Singapore and so many others who were Heads of States and Governments with Indian Origin besides Other Politicians with Asian Backgrounds including India.
There have been so many Indians who have done well in America and UK who are Still Proud of Their Heritage Too WHETHER GLOBAL STANDARD RICH, UPPER MIDDLE CLASS, MIDDLE MIDDLE CLASS.
Melanie Perkins, the Co-Founder and CEO of Canva is the 12th Richest Australian Billionaire with an Asian Background where her father is Malaysian having Sri Lankan and Filipino Heritage while the 10th Richest Australian Billionaire with an Asian Background is Vivek Sehgal with an INDIAN BACKGROUND born and brought up in India who migrated to Australia but still has Indian connections including through his businesses in India. There are So Many Australian Indians who are on Global Standard Rich, Upper Middle Class and Middle Middle Class where Most Still Love Their Indian Heritage Too.
In addition, many people think in MIDDLE EAST OF ASIA, INDIANS like FILIPINOS and OTHERS Work as Just Labourers. The HIGHEST PAID PEOPLE in MIDDLE EAST OF ASIA DUE TO THEIR HISTORY ARE INDIANS AND BRITISHERS WHERE NOT EVEN AMEIRCANS ARE PAID THAT HIGH WHERE THERE ARE INDIAN Doctors, Engineers, Scientists and Lots More WITHIN MIDDLE EAST OF ASIA.
1 of the Few Nations to Get Citizenship of Middle Eastern Nations of Asia - INDIANS.
The RICHEST OMANI BILLIONAIRE is P.N.C. Menon who was born in India and was Indian while now Omani while there are Many More Rich Omani Billionaires and Millionaires with Indian Backgrounds Too (OMAN is 1 NATION WITHIN MIDDLE EAST OF ASIA).
Lulu Group is 1 of the World's Largest Conglomerates started in Dubai in UAE that also has 1 of the World's Largest Shopping Mall Chains and It is Owned and was Founded by an Indian M. A. Yusuff Ali who is another Billionaire. There are Many More Rich Indians in UAE where UAE is Another Rich Middle Eastern Nation of Asia where there are So Many Rich Indians in UAE, More than there are in Oman while Saudi, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain and Others Too Have Rich Indians Also.
Africa is another place that Billionaire Indian and Western Background People are Trying to Dominate as Chinese had been having a Stronghold There including Supply Chain for Many of the World's Products including Commodities.
So, out of 1.4 Billion Indians, there are AT LEAST 200 MILLION GLOBAL STANDARD MIDDLE MIDDLE CLASS, UPPER MIDDLE CLASS and RICH INDIANS LIVING WORLDWIDE including as CITIZENS OF OTHER NATIONS WHERE MOST ARE STILL PROUD OF THEIR INDIAN HERITAGE TOO (Chinese Mostly have the Stronghold in Southeast Nations of Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia, Philippines etc where the Richest Group in these Nations are the Chinese and where Chinese Too have 1 of the World's Largest Number of Global Standard Middle Middle Class, Upper Middle Class and Rich People Living Worldwide including as Citizens of Other Nations Too where Many Still Love Their Chinese Heritage Too).
To continue, Sadly, Many Western Nations Messed Itself Up with STREAM Education and Skills which is Why in Those Nations, the Asian Background People are Challenging the Original Europeans.
Plus, the Fact that Many Western Nations are Going Down with Ageing Population Especially European Nations (South Korea has about 52 Million People and is 1 of the World's Most Densely Populated Nations where Even if S Korean Population Goes Down by 50%, S Korea Still Will Have Many More People than Most European Nations).
Plus, another fact is Most Single Moms Worldwide on PERCENTAGE BASIS along with African Nations Comes from USA followed by Many European Nations while Asian Nations have LOWER PERCENTAGE of Single Moms where Philippines is 1 of the Asian Leaders for Single Moms (There are So Many Research Studies Done Worldwide Showing the Correlation Between Single Moms and Poverty where Just Some Single Moms Succeed Worldwide while Most Single Moms are in Mess Worldwide) - JUST LOOK AT THE RICH WESTERNERS WITH ORIGINAL EUROPEAN BACKGROUNDS TOO WITH BROKEN MARRIAGES AND RELATIONSHIPS ITSELF WHILE MOST ASIAN BACKGROUND RICH PEOPLE HAVE LOWER BROKEN RELATIONSHIPS AND MARRIAGES THAT ARE MOSTLY SUCCESSFUL AS FORGIVENESS, PATIENCE, BEING RESPONSIBLE AND MORE THERE TOO FOR THE RELATIONSHIP TO GO ON INCLUDING TRUE LOVE FOR THE KIDS' SAKE.
Lastly, GET OVER YOURSELVES THAT ORIGINAL EUROPEANS WERE THE WORLD'S BEST WHICH THEY NEVER WERE
WHERE HERE ARE COUPLE OF BOOKS WRITTEN BY ORIGINAL EUROPEAN AUTHORS WHO PROVED THAT Original Europeans Were Never the Best But Good at Stealing, Copying, Plagiarising (So, GOOD LUCK WITH THOSE NONSENSE OPINIONS WHEN WORLD EXPERTS AND AUTHORS OF ORIGINAL EUROPEAN BACKGROUNDS HAVE STATED OTHERWISE compared to the opinions of Many Original Europeans Worldwide):
1) How the World Made the West: A 4000 Year History by Josephine Quinn (book came out in Feb 2024)
2) The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity by David Graeber, David Wengrow (book came out in Jan 2022)
3) The Theft of History by Jack Goody (book came out in Mar 2012)
4) Appropriating Innovations: Entangled Knowledge in Eurasia by Joseph Maran, Philipp Stockhammer (book came out in Sep 2017)
5) Horizons: A Global History of Science by James Poskett (Book came out in Aug 2021)(Many of the Discoveries and Inventions in Ancient Times Aren't from Original Europeans but from Asians, Africans as well as Indigenous People Worldwide where Original Europeans Stole and Took Credit for Them)(Even Pythagoras Theorem isn't from Pythagoras)
6) Stealing from the Saracens: How Islamic Architecture Shaped Europe by Diana Darke (Book came out in Aug 2020) (Gothic Architecture and Many of the Western Architecture are from Islamic Architecture)
7) I can keep going on with the Books written by Western Authors with Original European Background where Original Europeans were Good at Copying, Plagiarising and Stealing that including Delftware of Netherlands Copied From the Chinese Porcelain as well as Taking Credit for Indigenous American Inventions with regards to Baby Bottles, Kayaks, Syringes, Hammock and So Much Till Few Decades Ago which is when Indigenous Americans Got Recognition for Those Inventions from the Original European Settlers and Colonizers of USA
Good Luck to the Original Europeans Worldwide
Good Luck as USA is ONLY Western Country that can challenge Asian Economies while Most European Nations Will Not Be Leading 21st Century Economies. Europe Lost Out as It Went Behind in Digital Revolution of 3rd Industrial Revolution while Falling Behind for 4th Industrial Revolution Tech. Currently, China + USA Lead including Supply Chains, Tech while Others Worldwide are Playing Catch Up including European Nations, India, Israel, UAE and so many more.
World's Fastest Growing Economic Region is Southeast Asia while India is Currently Growing Faster than China.
Also, Fact is Many Western Nations are Falling with Ageing Population Especially European Nations (South Korea has about 52 Million People and is 1 of the World's Most Densely Populated Nations where Even if S Korean Population Goes Down by 50%, S Korea Still Will Have About 26 Million People which is More Than Most European Nations).
Additionally, another fact is Most Single Moms Worldwide on PERCENTAGE BASIS along with Those From Africa Comes from USA followed by Many European Nations while Asian Nations have LOWER PERCENTAGE of Single Moms where Philippines is 1 of the Asian Leaders for Single Moms (There is So Much Research Studies Done Worldwide Showing the Correlation Between Single Moms and Poverty where Just Some Single Moms Succeed Worldwide while Most Single Moms are in Mess Worldwide) - JUST LOOK AT THE RICH WESTERNERS WITH ORIGINAL EUROPEAN BACKGROUNDS TOO WITH BROKEN MARRIAGES AND RELATIONSHIPS ITSELF WHILE MOST ASIAN BACKGROUND RICH PEOPLE HAVE LOWER BROKEN RELATIONSHIPS AND MARRIAGES THAT ARE MOSTLY SUCCESSFUL AS FORGIVENESS, PATIENCE, BEING RESPONSIBLE AND MORE THERE TOO FOR THE RELATIONSHIP TO GO ON INCLUDING TRUE LOVE FOR KIDS' SAKE ALSO.
Lastly, ORIGINAL EUROPEANS WERE NEVER THE WORLD'S BEST PROVED BY COUPLE OF BOOKS WRITTEN BY ORIGINAL EUROPEAN AUTHORS WHO PROVED THAT Original Europeans Were Never the Best But Good at Stealing, Copying, Plagiarising (So, good luck with the wrong thinking that Many Original Europeans were the World's Best which They Never Were according to Leading Experts and Authors with Original European Backgrounds):

I am moving back to India - India is the future👌🙏
@@british-indian me too bro, from Canada.
The last comparison between the rich people’s’Mall’ and the poor’s ‘Mela’ was beautiful.
My best friend in America came from India at age 10. His father had a masters in electrical engineering. 1973. He argued from 1973 to 1979 that there was no caste system in India. That it was illegal. In 2024, I’m going “riiiiiiiight.”
He got a masters in electrical engineering and was a company president. Me, mechanical engineering the two masters and a PhD in psychology.
He is a delusional clown then.
Caste system is limited to marriage only , am also OBC
Being from lower have many privileges in India like reservation in job , and many other benefits
I won't say there aren't cases of harrasment but such cases are very rare
Cast system is prevalent in rural areas of some states while there is practically none in some, so you cant blame him, we are a very diverse country
And what is caste system? What do you mean by that?
As most Westerners have little to no idea about Indian Subcontinent and its society.
@@RR-pc7yv It's a social hierarchical system that has existed in India for thousands of years. The problem with the caste (jati as it's known in India) system is that a person born into particular caste was assigned a particular job. People born into higher castes gets all the well paid jobs and people born into the lower castes gets all the low paid jobs. Caste discrimination was criminalized after India became an independent country. But the ground reality is that caste is still prevalent in the minds of many Indians. The manusmriti an ancient Hindu legal text dictates that a person born into a particular caste must remain in that caste. This literally means that the rich upper caste people will remain rich and the poor lower caste people will remain poor even if they have the ability to excel in life. The lower caste person will be prevented from getting a job reserved for the elite caste. Indians has definitely progressed over the last couple of decades in overcoming these societal malpractices but still there is a long way to go. In my opinion the caste system must be abolished.

We see the caste equation in election. When govt gave things as per necessity guys in UP and Rajasthan vote as per caste… so end of the day you give vote to your caste person and then says others are discriminating? If you continue to vote based on religion and caste then don’t blame other for caste related issue…
Up might not have voted based on caste (as suggested by state media). Bjp gave tickets to gundas more than any party. Do you seriously think people in ayodhya voted based on caste!

Poverty in India has two meanings. Before the invasion and occupation by the foreign countries: by the Portuguese from the 16th century to mid 20th century, by muslim from 12th century till the British took over India in the beginning of 17th century till India became independent in 1947, poverty of India was mainly spiritual. Material poverty started after invasion and occupation.
It is true that present-day poverty is very stark.
But the good news is that India's development is positive despite various himalayan problems.
India is still together despite many languages and dilects and cutoms & traditions.
India has shown proficiency in modern science & technology. The general public is smart and intelligent.
It is a very complicated chess game in the matter of governing India domestically and internationally.
Some questions arise why India is a member of BRICS CLUB, where some members have very bad human rights issues, among other problems that would not be allowed in democratic India.
It is true that India had problems with the West since the beginning of her independence. Russia was a great friend.
But time has changed. I am certain India has to play a very tactful diplomacy in cases of Ukrain war and China.
Moreover, from the Ukrain war, it is now evident that the Russian ammunition is not up to the mark. India must invest in highly technical and electronically operated armaments, space technology, and AI in defence against her adversaries.
The positive point is that India is developing and, at the same time, tackling the poverty problem.
Best of luck to India/Bharat.
Literally every person profiled here would give their right arm to immigrate from India to the US, Canada or Western Europe.
Nope. The wealthy guy who wants to be a politician wouldn't.
Looks like you have problem with that
How'd you come to that conclusion? Hoping, wishing or working toward a better life doesn't make anyone in this Doc a candidate to want to leave India, I never heard any one of them say they wanted to leave.
No one is interested
Most people here in the video don't look that poor or impoverished we know what poverty is, if we are really poor then we would be begging for aid from Western country's which we don't it just looks like a underdeveloped country where people are getting on with their daily lives.
Countryside may have materialistic poverty but not emotional poverty for sure. Indian villages and villagers offer lot of things to the so called modern advanced societies. Peace harmony humility and humanity are the core values which they have.
If India is truly willing to improve the lives of their population it's mandatory free education up until college age so people are literate and can contribute to society more than agriculture or popping out kids. Having an educated work force is what propelled China to no.2 economy not just a large population.
the problem is that youth is educated but there are no opportunities.About 85 percent of indian youth is literate

A good documentary by DW.These issues should have been shown by India's Mainstream media . Most of the Indian Politicians treat poor people as Vote Bank only and do little fir their welfare .
But I wonder why these poor families are not getting free ration under AAY and PGKAY shemes of Govt of India.That means local Governments have to look into these issues.
Thanks DW for bringing out these issues of Poor in India

To quote DW "India, a nation on the verge of becoming a superpower?" - NEVER EVER EVER! I've been there. African states has a better chance.
I've lived in 9 countries, including 3 in Africa. Africa is very close to my heart, and I support their efforts. However, your knowledge of history, geopolitics, and economics renders your opinion rather useless. The good thing is in your lifetime, you will see a glimpse of what India once was in terms of economy. The downside is your ability to process data might keep you ignorant.
@lskv222 Rwanda, Botswana, Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa, all are making good progress. However, to take a quote from Bob Marley, they have not "emancipated themselves from mental slavery." The first thing the colonisers do, in order to take control of a place, is take away your gods. Until Africa returns to its own spiritual thoughts it will be very hard.
During Covid, India was not a super power but a super friend to Africa providing vaccines for free while the rich west hoarded 9 doses per resident. Now, India is building an IIT in Zanzibar, and discussing with South Africa to set up a vaccine factory. It is very hard for materially focused westerners to understand this non-acquisitive behaviour. We don't give a crap about being a super power - we come from a different spiritual tradition than you and we have different values. Africans and people of the global south can understand us better. By the way, how long is your historical memory? You do know that India and China were 50% of the world's economy before you guys showed up and became rich off our wealth and lands?
Superpowers actually have running water, sanitary conditions and don't rape and burn the victims in public by a mob.
@@madhukarmurthi9064 Are you for real? Who has been colonizing Africa of lately? Russians and Chinese. Africans are their own worst enemy, but being manipulated by their new colonizers from Asia to blame former colonizers for their poor choice of corrupted leadership, military juntas and dictators. Remember, Africans were enslaved before the European colonizers showed up. Why are so many Africans migrate to their former colonizers?
I never get tired of how a documentary about ANY nation or topic is automatically labeled "DW propaganda."

I don't know why people are talking about education is India is not sufficient . it's upto the person, education is free in India if the person wants to study they will if they don't they will end up like this . Government is doing good for low income people they even give study equipments like laptop study table for free . I even heard students of Tamil Nadu gets even free bicycles from school. Textbooks and School lunch are free for everyone in all over India. So these are not sufficient for people to study . I think this is enough for a normal person to study
