Countries around the world will be facing significant challenges relating not only to the environment but population and education as well. What problems will your country face in the next ten years? How can these problems be overcome? Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own experience or knowledge.

The world is changing rapidly and many of these changes are making it a far more challenging place for us to live in. It is predicted that global warming, overpopulation, pollution and scarcity of resources will take the world to a staggeringly tough situation. In the coming years, the biggest obstacle in front of

India

, my homeland, is to counter

poverty

and

illiteracy

.

This

essay will discuss these two problems and their possible solutions.

To begin

with,

India

is home to more than 1.4 billion

population

and is one of the most densely populated countries in the world. With a monstrous number of

population

and limited resource and wealth, people are going to face much more obstacles in the

next

ten years. Cultivable lands are being converted to living space, cities are getting more polluted due to overpopulation, and

poverty

is setting in more deeply.

As a result

,

illiteracy

and

poverty

rates are ever-increasing. Both problems are interconnected and

that is

why they are harder for the government and citizens to tackle.

For example

, according to Oxford University, 80% of Indians will live below the

poverty

line and the

illiteracy

rate will be higher among

such

population

. Some possible solutions to these imminent problems are that the government has to come with strict guidelines for making primary and secondary education free and mandatory. The local administration should make every possible arrangement to attract children to schools.

For example

, free meals in school, in neighbouring Pakistan, have brought a good result and similar steps could be taken in

India

as well. As for the

population

problem, the one-child policy should be strictly enforced and the awareness programmes and campaigns can be a silver bullet for

this

problem. In conclusion, the biggest challenge for

India

in the

next

ten years is to control

poverty

and ensure education for all. The government, local administration and citizens should all participate and contribute to eliminating

illiteracy

and controlling rampant

population

growth.
