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.😱😱😱

What is the best way to set up the information to be transmitted to give the maximum information transfer across a given channel?

This is of interest in many applications; an example is sending a large document by email. The document may be several hundred kilobytes in size and to send it by email over a telephone line using a modem operating at 28.8 kbps may take a considerable time. If the data are compressed, the file can in certain cases be reduced in size by a factor of over 10, which would reduce the time taken to transmit the file, thus improving the convenience and minimizing cost. If the source information contains redundant information, data compression can shorten the message by removing redundancy. An example would be sending a text file over a communications link where the source device removes redundant characters before transmission. If the file contains sequences that are repeated, such as several space characters in a row, then instead of transmitting each of them the number of spaces could be transmitted. At the receiver the reverse process would allow the original document to be recovered. This...
