Contrary to the anticipated decline in inequality post-independence, the economic gap persisted and escalated, particularly since the early 2000s. The concentration of wealth has surged significantly between 2014-15 and 2022-23, leading to greater economic disparity than during British colonial times. The paper analyzes the multifaceted factors contributing to the persistence and visibility of inequality in India, including governance, public policy, and privatization. The findings underscore the complex interplay between economic policies and social structures in shaping India's inequality landscape over the decades.</em></p> Dr Trishna Sarkar, Ms Aarushi Joshi, Dr. Yamini Copyright (c) 2025 EPH - International Journal of Humanities and Social Science http://eijhss.com/index.php/hss/article/view/220 Wed, 05 Feb 2025 00:00:00 +0000
