Detailed Solution

Relation between poverty and democracy in India reflects widening gap between poor and the rich, political parties being a puppet of rich classes and balance of power in a society is not maintained throughout.
In the context of a report published in 2004 in the USA, what holds there is the same in India too. The relation between poverty and democracy just replicates the condition in America in India. The gap between the rich and the poor is increasing every year and as political parties require enough funds to manage to remain in power and function well, they remain loyal to their rich masters as they are the key fund providers to the party. The apathy towards the poor by the government thus becomes a non-hidden fact as the demands of the rich would always be the top priority of the government. If this gap remains, it disturbs the overall power distribution among the societal groups and hence an inequality in terms of rich or poor, educated or uneducated is created. This scenario leads to conflicts in the future for the restoration of democracy as these conditions never guarantee a smoothly governed country forever.
