LIFE EXPECTANCY

• Childrens:

Economic growth in India has been strong over the past decade, especially in the information technology sector. But this rising tide has not lifted all boats. Significant disparities remain, with a large number of children still living in deprived conditions.

India: For some,no hope of a better life.

Millions of Indians still live in desperate poverty with no chance of bettering themselves. While the caste system is no longer as rigid as it was a century ago, it still determines the destiny of millions. In Mumbai, for example, almost everyone who works at the world’s biggest laundry, Dhobi Ghat, comes from the Dhobi, the washerman caste.

Given the range of diversity in soil type, climate and occupations, these cuisines vary significantly from each other and use locally available spices, herbs, vegetables and fruits. The dishes are then served according to taste in either mild, medium or hot. Indian food is also heavily influenced by religious and cultural choices and traditions. Some Indian dishes are common in more than one region of India.

Negative aspects

The negatives would be being separated from my family and friends.
