I think.
There is no relation between inequality of income and technology, technology is ubiquitous every people one or another way using technology, in India most of the people either poor or rich has cell phones, and they are enjoying using technology, using technology we can generate employment for poor people also, technology does not prevent poor people to become rich, People either poor or rich using technology.
Some times that happen that technology decrease the requirement of manpower but at the same time also generates new employment but that new technical employment.

In my opinion I think technology helps in daily life, but it also gives so many types of stress, it also creates unemployment for example where 10 men are works now a days robots and computers are working, as every coins have two faces, technology have also advantage and also disadvantage.
Thank you.

Technology is something which has increased the living standards of people and made us know the tits of bits of the world. People have started to use different technologies which has also changed the mindsets and has increased the purchasing power. Different objects like gadgets, automobiles and softwares come up with innovative technologies which has revolutionised the human life at the same time also has created difference and disparities among people. Especially in our country where there are so many people who do not have proper educational background and living standards are not able to use these technologies and remain in the oppressed and suffering side. When people are riding automobiles like Mercedes there are people who do not have money to put oil in their luna. For sure technology is bringing in inflation in various things which is affecting the needy ones and thus bring in income disparities.

From my point of view I strictly say that technology is much helpful when used in a right way, &twice harmful when uses in bad way i.e. it is similar to a knife which can be used as a tool to cut fruit for good, used to cut neck on bad behalf. What I want to say is technology can be used to make money easily but the way using should not be harmful to anyone.

I think technology has actually created income disparities. The best example is computer which is also one of the reasons for the disparity. Proficient in computer means you need to b acquianted with each and every language. The persons adroit in these languages are always preferred in any IT company and hence provided with high income than those who have just a basic computer knowledge and got a job in small sectors.
One more example that I would like to set is the private institute be it a coaching institute or retailing sectors. In coaching classes, the technology has enabled the students present in some state, to view their teacher and his lectures delivered in some other state. For which the institute has to charge more from their students to compensate for their extra expenses. That has also created more income disparities between the these lavish institutes and conventional institutes.
Another instance is the various kinds of equipments that hospitals are using and therefore it actually adds to their income because they have to charge more for any operations or any examination treatment like x- rays etc. Although the technology has always proved beneficial to everybody. But on the same floor, it has created income disparity.

In the developing country like India where literacy rate is not so high, the technology has created an imbalance in the income because a low middle class person do not able to change itself according to it. Persons in the government offices do not able to learn easily about the computers, mobiles so they are not consider for jobs or any place related to earn money.

In my opinion, I think technology has taken our country to the next level. Due to these new technologies, the workload has been shared between humans and computers. Believe it or not due to new techs. Employability in our country will increase because we need humans to operate computers. In our country right now there is a lack of jobs. But with these new technologies, we can make new jobs and we can hire people, which means we are creating employability.

Use of the computer will not increase unemployment instead it will enhance the job opportunity in India as India is transforming to digital India, where more than 600000 villages will require computer knowing people. If one village requires five computer operators than 30 lakhs of the job will be generated at ease.

Technology, it's a part of science. Everyone gather knowledge in different areas to make his and others life happier and easier. Like that human created different technology for his own benefit. So from my point of view, it is developed for our good. So we have to take decision to use technology in a good way so that it could be used for the good of all. Lastly, I wanna say that it does not create any income disparities. We have to make it available for all so that everyone can use it for something good.

In my view technology became a part of our life. Ever thing and every work were related to technology itself, by using this even we are in miles we can communicate and also many transactions and deals are going to be done by using technology.
Internet is also a technology we know how this spread into an every individual and a without internet we can't imagine how the world is?
Everything has an advantage and disadvantage.
We should not encourage technology into negative manner like terrorism.
