'''''Garibi Hatao Desh Bachao''''' ({{Langx|hi|गरीबी हटाओ देश बचाओ|4=Remove poverty, save the country}}) was the theme and [[slogan]] of [[Indira Gandhi]]'s [[1971 Indian general election|1971 election]] campaign. The slogan and the proposed [[poverty reduction|anti-poverty programs]] that came with it were designed to give Gandhi an independent national support, based on rural and urban poor, which would allow her to by-pass the dominant rural [[Caste system in India|castes]] both in and out of state and local government; likewise the urban commercial class. And, for their part, the previously voiceless poor (particularly [[Dalits]] and [[Adivasis]]) would at last gain both political worth and political weight.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://indiragandhi.in/en/timeline/index/garibi-hatao-timeline|title=Garibi Hatao Programme by Indira Gandhi}}</ref><br />
<br />
The programs created through ''garibi hatao'', though carried out locally, were funded, developed, supervised, and staffed by Government officials in [[New Delhi]] and [[Indian National Congress|Congress Party]] officials.{{Citation needed|date=December 2015}} It was part of the [[Five-Year Plans of India#Fifth Plan .281974.E2.80.931978.29|5th Five-Year Plan]].<br />
