Rising middle class in Bangladesh

The list goes further like this:

India is among 29 countries with the highest levels of hunger, stunted children and poorly fed women, according to the International Food Policy Research Institute (IFPRI)’s “Global Hunger Index 2010. Over 200 million Indians sleep hungry at night which is higher than any other country in the world. Indeed, 1/3rd of the world's hungry live in India. When Indian states are compared to countries in the Global Hunger Index, Madhya Pradesh ranks between Ethiopia and Chad.

India's 200 million Dalits ( untouchables) continue to suffer today.

839 million have no sanitation services. Diarrhea alone causes more than 1,600 deaths daily—the same as if eight 200-person jumbo-jets crashed to the ground each day.

And yet you Bangis rank lower than us on the HDI list. So shut the trap please. :argh:

Religious riots are part of life in India. Even today there is religious riots going on in Asam.

Happens because of the country bordering us and its citizens who would rather come here and be killed than live in their own marshland.

Most strikingly, none of the neighbors likes India. Interestingly, my personal observation is that while Bangladeshi and Pakistani common people do not like India, the Sri Lankan and Nepalese common people hates India. The reason is amply manifested in this thread. So please keep your ICBM and Nuclear Submarine to yourself!!!

None of the neighbours ? LOL clown talk for yourself. And Nepalese hate India ? Wow that must be a revelation. I've seen and interacted with plenty Nepalese to know which country they regard as their second home.
 
Thats not what the roads in Bangladesh look like:lol: Maybe couple of Km's but majority of your road network is little better than dirt tracks.

@GSLV, stop comparing India to Bangladesh. Its quite offensive.

comparing with them????:lol::lol::lol:

Guys, this thread deals with how middle class is growing fast in Bangladesh and how these people earn and spend money on extravagants, cars, motor bikes and tours to the sea beach and mountains. However, Indians have very successfully derailed this thread. Now, both sides are bickering and throwing muds at each other.

No one denies India is more developed because its developmemment started during British time. Bd started slowly after 1947, it was almost stagnated from 1971 to 1985s. But, somehow some of our small investors came forward and invested money in very very small apparel industries. Now, this 'Stitching' industry has mushroomed to a real textile industry that has surpaased even India's textile exports.

Basically, we remain a poor country. But, there have been a tremendous change in the society. When this country's foreign exchange earnings are a total of about $36 billion, it is real that some people have become very rich, some moderately rich and again some have become a part of middle class. There are certainly a group of slum dwellers, but things are changing fast because jobs are available for every able bodied and willing person.

In the villages, the farmers are becoming rich and becoming middle class people very fast with amenities like power tillers, tractors, bi-cycles and motor bikes. Yet, some people have to live hand to mouth. However, nobody can say there are deaths due to hunger any more in Bangladesh, although there are pockets of poverty.

So, Indians should not get a jitter when they see a quite developed Bangladesh comparing to what it was twenty years ago. They should accept what we have become and what our middle class people earn and how lavishly they spend. By the way, our people are not genetically a miser group of people.

So, when the rich and middle class people spend money, by law of economics, the money circulates among other groups of people and also percoalates to the poors. This is how the society is changing fast. Our poor people will certainly become a lower middle income group of people in the next 15 years. This is what the trend is.

Tracks

To ensure safety the tracks are fitted with RHEDA-2000 signalling technology, which theoretically allows trains to travel at up to 350 km/h (nearly three times the actual maximum speed of current trains).[32] The entire 22.7 km route is ballast-less track, which costs 40–50% more than normal train tracks, but does not take longer to lay than traditional tracks. The rails rest on rubber pads on the concrete sleepers for less noise.[32]

Indian locomotive class WAP-5

Other notable features of this locomotive are the provision of taps from the main transformers for hotel load, pantry loads, flexible gear coupling, wheel-mounted disc brakes, and a potential for speed enhancement to 225 km/h (140 mph)

cause of all that is.....

Bangladeshis should avoid behaving like idiotic, backward extremist Hindutva radicals who are high on bluster and bluff, but low on achievements. That's why Indians are a laughing stock the world over, specially amongst the young entreprising, resourceful, educated and intelligent people all over the developing world (East Asia, ASEAN, Africa and elsewhere).

Now we are back on track....

India is developing at a very fast rate...why should we jitter??

No trolling would have occured if No one dragged India into the thread....
 
This thread is not about how fast the Indian trains run. Rather, it is about the rising number of middle class people in Bangladesh. Since Indians are challenging us about the growing middle class, let us see what is the percentage of middle class in India? It is less than 5%. This may be the reason why the Indians hate when we say our middle class is large.

Now, click the link below to see what India's own newspaper says of the number of middle class in that country.

A report by National Council for Applied Economic Research's (NCAER) Centre for Macro Consumer Research said by 2015-16, India will be a country of 53.3 million middle class households, translating into 267 million people falling in the category.

Currently India has 31.4 million middle class households (160 million individuals).

India HDI ranks 135(Medium human development)

Bangladesh ranks 146(Low human development)
