Do you think the government are playing the system in some ways to pretend things are improving?
No, I can clearly see, it's not happening now. But what's happening is exact opposite to it. Government is providing shelter to poor people as a priority. There is a scheme of affordable housing run by central government that had successfully provided houses to more than 45 million people till now and govt. has pledged another 30 million by 2027.
That’s good to hear. I suppose the obvious question is, do you think what is being done is enough with such a large population? The focus on extreme poverty is important, hopefully they can continue to improve the standard of living for more and more people in India.

What I can see with my eyes is extreme poverty isn't a usually visible thing in India now. Yes, government need to keep on working in the direction of raising living standards and eliminating whatever poverty is left.

I definitely agree that poverty isn’t anywhere near as visible as it was before. Hopefully the government plans keep working and poverty levels continue to be reduced.
