As per recent news only 1 per cent of households controls around 60 per cent of the total wealth in India. This 1 per cent manipulates the stock market, and while they earn profits, many suffer huge losses. The 1 per cent promotes over consumption to run their business and contribute to waste generation and pollution of air, water, and land. This 1 per cent conducts land deals that cause deforestation and the filling of water bodies, contributing to global warming, climate change, and natural calamities that affect many. This 1 per cent takes huge loans from financial institutions and fail to repay them, causing inflation and stress in job markets, resulting in unemployment. This 1 per cent pays huge bribes, fueling corruption that persists, resulting in poor infrastructure and governance, leading to casualties in disasters. This 1 per cent controls politicians through sponsorship, and the decisions of these politicians impact the lives and standards of living of the masses.
