Source Christopher McDougall told us the story of the lion and the gazelle in the African jungle. Both the lion and the gazelle have to outrun the other in order to survive. Unless the lion runs faster than the gazelle, it will starve to death. Unless the gazelle outruns the lion, it will become the latter’s food. That is also the policy of capitalism. The richest one percent of India’s population own 58% of the country’s total wealth, says Oxfam’s latest report . In plain figures, just 57 Indians own as much wealth as about 875,000,000 other Indians. India is a jungle of lions and gazelles where the latter may die under the wheels of Land Cruisers driven by the former while they sleep huddled together on the footpaths after the weary day in a sweatshop. There’s much wealth in India. But the majority of people are poor. You will find this majority sleeping on the footpaths if you take a walk in the cities at night. You will see them struggling to earn a livelih
