5 Amazing Facts about Poverty


🌕 According to the UNDP and Oxford Poverty and Human Development Initiative, a large swathe of the population, comprising 364 million people, are 
engulfed by multidimensional poverty and continue to experience deprivation in health, schooling, and sanitation. 

🌕 India’s Multi-dimensional Povery Index was 0.121, lower than the world average of 0.159. The country was ranked 53rd out of 105 developing countries in 2017.
🌕 While there has been much progress in science and innovative applications of digital technology in diverse fields, India is still experiencing a shocking rise in 
inequality. The ‘trickle down’ effect has not been very effective, even though 271 million people moved out of poverty between 2005-06 and 2015-16. 

🌕The poverty rate in India has nearly halved, falling from 55 per cent to around 28 per cent in the 10-year period between 2005-06 and 2015-16. 

🌕 Poverty, which was 70% during Independence, came down to 22% in 2011-12. The percentage of the population living below the poverty line in India decreased to 22% in 2011-12 from 37% in 2004-05, according to data released by the Planning Commission in July 2013.

Why do the Indian telecom operators offer their services with 28 days validity, not 30 days?😡😡

Here telecom operator are very clever, b ecause telecom operators want to earn money of 13 months instead of 12 months. Let do the calculation and find out why telecom operators are offering 28 days validity. Each month they get 2 days more, therefore in a year they get additional 24 days. There are 7 month which has 31 days so they get additional 7 days.Now in case of February  ,it has only 28 days not 30. So the total number of days they get are=24+7-2=29 days. So if you recharge 12 times then more 29 days are left in a year.🤔🤔 Means for another 29 days you have to recharge from that telecom operator.😫😫 So you have to recharge 13 times in a year instead of 12 times in a year. So telecom operators provide 28 days validity only. First one telecom operator started and then another telecom operators also understood this concept and they also applied 28 days validity both in data packs and voice packs.😱😱😱

How Electronic ink works?

Used increasingly in digital products, how does this technology work? Electronic ink (or electrophoretic ink) consists of millions of microcapsules. Each one contains positively charged white particles and negatively charged black particles, all suspended within a clear fluid. When these microcapsules are subjected to a positive or negative electric field, the corresponding particles rise to the top, becoming visible to the eye and colouring that microcapsule.  eBook reader displays coat electronic ink onto a sheet of plastic film, which in turn is laminated to a layer of circuitry. This circuitry forms a pattern of pixels that can be controlled by the display’s software driver, allowing images and text to be displayed in the form of a traditional page of physical paper.   Electronic ink displays differ from LCDs by utilising ambient light to illuminate pixels, with the rays merely reflecting off their surface. This means they have very low power demand, a...
