Due to inflation the living standard of Pakistani peoples is going down day by dayNow we know Pakistan is rich country, because Pakistan have god biggest gift which is not for all countries & nations

Cause of poverty People of Pakistan are poor due to lot of factors. Some of these factors are given below

Lack of education:
The literacy rate of Pakistan is very low. Most of people do not have any concept about the modern earning sources. Government schools & colleges condition are very pitiable. Teachers cant attend their jobs. Schools are closed from a long time but staff is still getting their salaries. This is all due to failure of management.

Division of Agricultural land:

All politicians have huge amount of agricultural land due to corruption. They never try to research on new species of vegetables & fruits because they have huge number of land. They already earning huge amount of profit but due to new ways they can earn more. Poor farmer cant compete with these black sheeps of country. So thats why Agriculture of Pakistan is well. Pakistan can earn much more than current values.

Lack of Foreign Investment:

Situation of Pakistan is not very good because investor always prefer stable political & economic conditions but condition of Pakistan is very different. So this thing is also another big cause of poverty.

 Inflation:
Inflation rate in Pakistan is very high, management is interest in other factors expect this major problem. Current inflation rate in Pakistan is 7.39(09/2013). Inflation decreases the savings and investments of poor people and they remain poor.

Imposition of Taxes
People of Pakistan are too responsible for this bad condition of country. According to NADRA Over 2m Non-taxpayers in Pakistan. People dont want to pay tax because they think management cant give good facilities due to this they cant pay direct tax. This thing make the condition worse.

Population:
Population of Pakistan is increasing very rapidly. People and management dont want to control this problem, countries like China & India are working very seriously on this matter.

Corruption
Poverty is also due to dishonesty and corruption in management. Officers receive a huge amount of illegal money for the legal and illegal job. These unnecessary payments reduce the savings of poor and result is poverty.

 Law and Order:

Law and order conditions are at their poor stages. A huge portion of saving of population is wasted in costly and lengthy legal process Chief Justices of Pakistan is working very hard but their lot of big holes in judicial system of Pakistan.

Nepotism:
Nepotism means the murder of talent and abilities. It refers to the employment opportunities according to relation not according to the worth. If population is poor but is talented it remains poor due to nepotism.

Increase in Utility Charges:

Utility charges like water, gas, electricity & etc. are increasing day by day in Pakistan. More utility charges lead to reduction in the saving of population and its result is poverty.

Improper Income Distribution:

Imbalanced distribution of resources is an additional cause of poverty in Pakistan. This situation leads to increase the gap between rich and poor. Due to undesirable distribution of income and wealth, poor population is unable to take part in economic activities to remove poverty.

According to World Banks (2013) 60 percent population living below poverty line. The international poverty line is two dollars a day or an income of PRs 200 per day. The report shows that 21 percent of Pakistans population lives below $1.25 per day.

The biggest issue is the underutilization of the massive resources available in this land, where our federal budgets has been silent for years. This issue is directly related to poverty reduction as well as developing confidence in the people of Pakistan and about their future.
