Poverty is a problem that exists in every community. Situations are often getting worse to the point where they are dangerous. It leads to several horrible social evils that are wreaking havoc on societies. To address the problem, we may track regular legislation and the active participation of NGOs and other agencies, but the expected consequences remain a pipe dream. Its severity is permanently destroying generations and forcing individuals to commit crimes. The poverty pump is an overpowering phenomenon of aggressive communal response and failed institutional response. This review will look at the topic from a legal perspective to find flaws and suggest ways to improve things to protect society from the destructive effects of poverty. This study will look into flaws in the law and how it is applied. It will help close gaps by debating whether the law is good enough or needs to be changed. By taking a descriptive approach, it takes time for global policy changes to address or fix the problem adequately. After thoroughly examining issues, causes, and institutional responses to the curse of poverty, this multiple nature review's results will be beneficial as a reformative tool for social rehabilitation and establishing sustainable development goals.
