It was really a paradox between economic and social development. </p><p>Raj once wrote philosophically: "I think that most of the things that welfare economists talk about are those that are obvious to all of us, especially the common people. In fact, even a pure philosopher and religious thinker like <a href="/wiki/Narayana_Guru" title="Narayana Guru">Sree Narayana Guru</a>, who achieved a social transformation in Kerala, spoke about the very same things that welfare economists speak about today: education, health care facilities, even small-scale industries... Many people like me practised welfare economics without knowing that it was <a href="/wiki/Welfare_economics" title="Welfare economics">welfare economics</a> because we were anxious that economics should help the poor. But people who take economic theory literally would say that this is not our problem."
