There is a detailed study of the functioning of various poverty alleviation programmes in India and why they have not accomplished their objectives. An innovative attempt has been made to eliminate poverty by integrating grassroot planning and growth pole strategy. It also emphasizes that if the government, people and civil society work harmoniously, the ultimate goal of empowerment of the voiceless, rootless and powerless people of our country can be achieved.
