Healthcare, Water, Education: Factors contributing to the lack of essential services for children in India

 

Approximately 206 million children in India, nearly half of the country's child population, lack access to at least one of six essential services: housing, sanitation, clean water, nutrition, education, and health.

"The socio-economic conditions of the underprivileged are such that several members of a family often live in a single room without proper access to utilities; this makes obtaining an education a challenge for them," says aid development economist Amir Ullah Khan.

 

Despite tremendous progress in poverty reduction, roughly 206 million Indian children, nearly half of the country's child population, lack access to at least one of six key services, including education, health, nutrition, housing, clean water, and sanitation.

 

While more than half of India’s 460 million children now have access to basic services, the remaining children, particularly those in vulnerable groups, continue to face structural hurdles.

 

Children with disabilities, younger children, and those living in crisis-hit areas are disproportionately affected, and the continuation of these inequalities is related to unequal progress across regions and people.

 

While India has made progress in reducing multidimensional poverty, the country's poverty rate fell from 29.2% to 11.3% between 2013–14 and 2022–23. Investment in child welfare has plateaued globally, and the benefits of poverty reduction have not been distributed fairly.

 

Despite the existence of flagship government programs such as Poshan Abhiyaan, Samagra Shiksha, PM-KISAN, the Mid-Day Meal Scheme, Beti Bachao Beti Padhao, the Swachh Bharat Mission, and the Jal Jeevan Mission, which have expanded access to nutrition, education, sanitation, and income support, their reach remains insufficient in the most deprived areas.

 

 The report emphasizes that while India is on track to meet its Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) target of halving multidimensional poverty by 2030, further acceleration of effective programs is needed to reach the "last mile."

 

Additionally, global challenges such as climate shocks, political instability, and national debt are pushing families deeper into hardship, threatening to reverse hard-earned gains.

 

The lack of sustained, equitable investment in child-focused policies, especially in health, learning, and protection, continues to hinder progress.

 

UNICEF calls for institutionalizing child-focused budgets, strengthening public-private partnerships, and ensuring children’s participation in decisions affecting their lives to address these persistent deprivations.

 

WHAT IS THE SECRET OF BIDEN’S FOREIGN POLICY ON AFRICA?

 

On the back of a flipped coin, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Barack Obama

When Barack Obama was the president of the United States of America, Joe Biden was the vice president. He followed the country’s policies and constitution and inflicted the Ebola virus, a hemorrhagic fever, on three West African countries of Liberia, Guinea, and Sierra Leone, while Africa has already been devastated by HIV, Aids, and tuberculosis.

Now Joe Biden is the 46^th president of the United States of America, and her vice-president is an African woman called Kamala Harris. Since America’s foreign policy on Africa never changes, because of the continent’s rich resources, it’s necessary to ask Joe Biden what America will give to Africa, after HIV, Aids, Ebola, nodding disease, tuberculosis, and other man-made diseases.

 

It was also under the same Obama administration; Bill Gates continued to terrorize Congo with Ebola simultaneously because of the precious cobalt, under the nose of world leaders, including Belgium, without a word, while they support the lies of the criminal tagged philanthropist, and the US government that bats are responsible for the spread of the deadly disease in Congo and other neighboring countries.

 

It is a long time ago the European and American journalists started writing about Africa, and their best description for Africa is the continent which has enormous poverty, characterized by many diseases, including Aids, Ebola, and a strange disease called nodding, malaria, Burkitt’s lymphoma, and tuberculosis.

 

Hardly would one come across Africa, the continent that has diverse, rich resources that Western Europeans and American leaders for decades have terrorized by slavery, colonial brutality, Apartheid horrors, and the deliberate spread of diseases through contaminated vaccines, drugs, foods, and water.

 

Now the coin is flipped, and here comes a common African writer called Joel Savage, living in Europe, sweeping out all the lies, deceptions, hypocrisy, and the diabolical agenda that the Western European and American leaders, their journalists, and the media have hidden under the carpet for decades.

 

Unfortunately, they are not satisfied with my efforts because they consider it a threat to them and an abomination for an African writer to speak against the heinous crimes European and American leaders committed in Africa, yet the same advanced countries’ leaders call for the arrest of African leaders that they accuse of committing a crime against humanity to the International Criminal Court.

 

This shows how the world has rotten to its roots and the evil that is embedded in the brain of certain leaders to unleash pain and suffering on the weaker nations without any remorse or sympathy, because that diabolical agenda is necessary for the economies of Europe and America to survive.

 

There are so many videos on both Facebook and YouTube discussing how to kill Africans and prevent the continent from growing because Europe and America need the continent’s resources to survive. One of the videos says:

 

“For sterilization and population control, there are too many people on the planet that we need to get rid of, and in the words of Bill Gates, at least three billion people need to die.

 So we just started up in Africa, we start doing our research there, and we will eliminate first of the Africans because they are deplorable, worthless, they are not part of this world economy, so they are the right to be taken away, and surprisingly they have experimented.”

Another video explains, “To this day, it remains the official policy of the American government, it is not changed, may not be implemented by Trump but remains the same but the purpose of the policy in Africa was to reduce the population, to give but not to give clean water, schooling and things like that but contraception and abortion to shrink the population because they have great mineral resources we need them.”

 

While all these videos discussing global depopulation in Africa are visible to millions around the world, it has never been an important issue for Google to take away these provocative videos that can ignite violence from YouTube; instead, the search engine company finds my articles on such issues a threat and, therefore, has declared war on them by suppressing information.

 

I find it very disturbing that European and American leaders, conscious about security, peace, and good health for their citizens, can deliberately inflict man-made diseases on other poor nations because of their resources. This diabolical agenda not only reveals how dangerous this world is but also how far politicians can kill other people to get whatever they are looking for.

While all such things are clandestinely going on, yet advanced countries’ governments are not willing to speak about them because the victims are Africans or other people from the third world. However, they must accept the responsibility for the destruction of the world today by the coronavirus. It’s their fault, and they can never hide from it. God will hold them responsible for the senseless loss of human lives.
