I work and I’m friends with many people from India. I’ve travelled there many times. Poverty in India IS poverty - no sanitation, starvation, no food, no schools, beggars missing limbs because they are removed by mob bosses to garner more money from tourists, people bathing, washing, and drinking contaminated water. Any of them would do anything for the ‘poverty’ level in the US.

India has very rich sections and beautiful areas as well. Cities can be nice and there are gated communities but a clear separation between rich/middle class and poverty in the rural areas.
