Youtube comments of Arun Sar (@arunsar7893).

  1.  @10376-k  "Respect a person's right to dress modestly." - Dressing like a ninja is not dressing "modestly". It's madness.
    205
  2. I am sure Chidambaram had prepared the speech a few days before the budget came out cause he was going to say this no matter what!
    171
  3. "I think you are wrong all accounts" - C Raja Mohan. That line describes Jyoti so well.
    132
  4. That's the most intellectually dishonest position ever and part of the problem. The fact is: "It IS the religion that is the problem, not the people".
    109
  5. "Liberal side wants her head." - SG How liberal is the liberal side really? .. That statement should give you the answer.
    85
  6. Not if politics of the country you migrate to benefits from the politics back home. Trudeau has given the space and is milking it for his politics. This is only going to get worse from here.
    76
  7.  @ARJaymusic  He isn't right when he says " We have given them development and we have let them host the Fifa World" .. Wtf is that supposed to mean??
    74
  8. Let be honest, the opposition doesn't want Modi to inaugurate it because that essentially etches his name in History. It's a political loss of a bigger spectrum. But the Congress should have thought of that before naming everything from Airports to Southern most point in India after Indira Gandhi.
    70
  9.  @ARJaymusic  Really??.. Did Europe pay for the bid? .. I wasn't aware that Qatar had to seek Europe's permission to bid for it. Also, Fifa seems to be encouraging Saudi to bid for Fifa 2030. Has that come after Europe's "permission", knowing what Saudi Laws are or will they wait for 8 years until Saudi hosts World Cup to let everyone know that they "allowed" it to happen and that they are very concerned about human rights ??

  10. These are cowardly actions taken in haste to hide the incompetency and corruption within BBMP which is the real reason behind the shambolic state of Bangalore Infrastructure. The corrupt officials who gave these permissions should be sacked and made an example out of before conducting demolition drives which are going to only exacerbate the pain of already troubled citizens of Bangalore.
    67
  11. The politicians and elites are the same everywhere. The disproportionately raise the treat of "far-right" and always shield the Islamists. It's exactly the same in India.
    63
  12. It's important to note that the rates have been cut at the top is aimed more at MSMEs which aren't incorporated. Many don't incorporate cause it requires higher compliance.
    62
  13.  @finzz7330  We can offcourse disagree. But I have seen what the religion of Islam does to even the educated people. And it's the same. There are people with Oxford degrees who are exactly like the Abi Wahid guy. They want Sharia law in UK. Education can't solve an ideological problem. The sooner people realise that the better.
    61
  14. I find it a bit weird that Same Sex relationship scored suddenly dropped from 10 to 5 in 2014 and remained there even after decriminalization of same sex relationships, which happened after 2014.
    59
  15.  @RehanKhan-ii3sl  How about we punish the hunter then ??
    58
  16. 3:01 I hope people know that is not a Chimney, it's a cooling tower and the "smoke" coming out of it, is steam(pure water), not smoke from burning coal.
    44
  17. Also, Women's Hockey Team and Aditi Ashok in Golf.
    43
  18. Chinese Soldiers: "Nah! .. we came here once before, 4 years after you left"
    41
  19. This is not a populist scheme. I am sure people who can appreciate Modi govt. for LPG, Toilets, Water connection etc can appreciate this as well.

  21. They learn from the best of the best who have spread peace around the world.
    34
  22. @5:50 Since we were wearing raincoats during rainy season we should always keep wearing a raincoat, irrespective of whether it is summer or winter. "We shouldn't tinker with it." Right minister?
    34
  23. So what if he is an India citizen? .. He isn't from Odisha. And stop giving brainless examples. Modi contested from Varanasi for Lok Sabha not to be UP's CM. No one in UP would have accepted him if he wanted to be UP's CM. Get your head looked at. It needs repair.
    34
  24.  @finzz7330  "theres old law in islam that doesnt fit the modern society" - Exactly. But those laws are there in Islam, which is why I say Islam is the problem. What you are saying is reformation of Islam. Then it changes into something else but with the same name.
    31
  25. That's the problem. People expect to understand complex issues by watching a video under 10 mins.
    31
  26. Yes we do. But we expect the same respect back.
    29
  27.  @raghavendravishwas5929  Indira's popularity had plummeted after 2 years of emergency. Even the most recent CSDS Lokniti survey shows Modi's popularity is intact. People are took quick to draw similarities between two completely different situation just so they can make a point.
    29
  28. Ah!.. How convenient !!
    29
  29.  @tbd5330  I am from Orissa and the farmer protest has no currency here.
    29
  30.  @SPrabhakar  "they have the audacity to claim 3rd term" - That's cause they know their politics and are confident of the result. "BJP actually delivered zero in 10 years" - Statements like this is either pure delusion or pure politics.
    28
  31. For anyone who says these days are worse than Emergency should be abducted and forceful vasectomy should be conducted on them like it happened in the days of emergency.
    27
  32. @Anurag Chakraborty Are my feelings relevant to the score drop in the report?? Such lame point scoring in debates with inability to stick to what is relevant to the discussion is the reason behind Bengal's ruin. Sad to see some bengalis still havent learnt their lesson and are busy being woke on social media.
    27
  33. People who don't understand Indian politics think they are loosing because of EVM.
    27
  34. If Rahul has any dignity he should leave politics after loosing 3 national elections.
    26
  35. Until the last moment just before SG completed the story I genuinely thought the Chinese dog would answer " I am running away cause in China I am food." P.S: I am very aware that the peculiar chinese food habits are only true for South China, around Ghounzhou.
    26
  36.  @Judah_889  This is a masterclass on how to pack huge amounts of stupidity in a small paragraph.
    25
  37. Not going to happen. He will be there for another 10 years. He has set the ground for that.
    25
  38.  @mahalingamarunachalam9428  It's delusional to even suggest that.
    25
  39. Both People of India and Pakistan, in general, want good relations and do genuinely care for each other. But when it comes to establishments, it's a different thing.
    24
  40. Because Jaati and Community is how India votes.
    23
  41. Fruits of Islam. But many promptly deny it.
    22
  42. Sounds like logical argument but based on a lot of assumptions based on "historical data" leading to pre-concluding events that are yet to play out. Seems smart, but not really.
    22
  43.  @carlosminjarez9050  "the problem are the people" - That's what Hilter said before he gased 6 million people. Learn to differentiate ideas from people. Ideology are the problem. People are behaving the way they are bcs of the ideology, not independent of them. And saying it's not Islam, it's the people is a clever way of hiding what Islam really is.
    22
  44. "India will not be the next China. It'll become India of its own." - Very true.
    22
  45.  @rameezpathan6586  I am an Atheist. I am not happy with any religion whatsoever (including Hindusim). Btw .. it's a bit hypocritical to talk about Ummah, raise free Palestine and protest against magazines in France when none of that actually affect someone living in India. But then for specific issues choose to "talk about India". What's with the cherry picking ??
    21
  46. He was charismatic. Modi is good in it's own way and that's what India reads right now but Nehru did a lot of right things in his time. Nehru's unchallenged mandate allowed him to lay the foundations of Nation Building. Without that, India wouldn't have survived the separatism and insurgencies it faced in 1960s. Both Pakistan and Bangladesh, much smaller nations than India and way less diverse fell for military dictatorships. Pakistanis are still confused with their identities. Those are basic problems. Without solving those we couldn't have thought of building infra. Same goes for Indira. Infact, Indira was very similar to Modi in many ways.
    21
  47. Because public thinks short term, countries think long term.
    21
  48. There are no guarantees in geopolitics. China sets the terms cause China is more powerful. The only way to get a guarantee is to rapidly increase the size of our economy and improve out offensive capability.
    21
  49. True that. She didn't become the PM in 2004 cause a strong opposition didn't allow her to be. The statement just shows how delusional Mr. Sanghvi can be, even while admitting, after eventual realization, everything that Congress is doing wrong.
    21
  50. All the dog parents should be punished under criminal offense for any neglect on their part.
    21
  51. It's stupidity or naivety to believe a hard liner can bring positive change.
    21
  52. This is another reason why Cities need to be made into Mayoral cities so that such stupid politics can't be played in cities.
    21
  53. What you will understand is the true meaning of "being in power". When in power people don't ask you the difficult question instead they ask you whether or not you like to eat mangoes. And vice versa.
    20
  54. What delusions have lead you to believe that India can "dictate" terms to US?
    20
  55. China opened it's economy 18 years before India and it's 15 to 20 years ahead of India. That's it. You can chill out a bit.
    20
  56. When the government says Amrit Kaal, it means the next 25 years, not the current period. It is to signify India's rise as an economic power where 80 Cr people don't have to live on Free Ration anymore. But I must seriously ask .. "a dwindling economy" - in which freaking universe?
    20
  57. Basically he is singing the same broken tune and no change is going to come under him.
    19
  58.  @LaluBhaiya1233  "the need to revive and have Hinduism as the sole preferable state religion." - People who say this don't understand India very much. Hinduism is never going to be the "sole preferable" state religion. That has never been the aim. " India is lucky in that this is mostly isolated to Northen India, whereas South India is more educated and forward thinking." - Education and forward thinking doesn't have to do much with divergence between the North and the South. South has not faced Islamic invasions like the North did. South never experienced partition like the North did. Different Societal experiences build different societal behavior. And the South (and East) of India is able to resist BJP, not because they are "educated", but because of having a separate linguistic identity. And anyone who says BJP wins elections because of Hindutva politics is not very informed about Indian politics, which imo is not easy to understand.
    19
  59. What has happened to Raghuram Rajan? .. How did this transformation happen?
    19
  60. Jyoti's Pakistan sycophancy is astounding.
    19
  61. Exactly. But Jyoti will do anything to make a situation worse than it actually is as long as it hurts Modi. She hates Modi and can't let her political bias affect her Journalism.
    19
  62.  @Makeitgreat1  Except those religions reformed, something that seems like an impossibility with the most peaceful religion in the world.
    18
  63. or probably too old. P.S: That's me.
    18
  64. Attacks on Modi directly does more harm than help in any way. Every political party has learnt this including TMC and AAP but Congress hasn't. What's wrong with it?
    18
  65.  Royal Bengal Tiger  "Because Xi Zingping didn't massacre Muslims unlike Modi who massacre muslims in Gujarat." - How do you even get the courage to be so moronic in public ?
    17
  66. Too much of Dune. 😀
    17
  67.  @nissarpa1259  If that were true Modi would win in Tamil Nadu, Odisha, Kerala, West Bengal, Andhra and Telengana too. Stop being delusional just because the political leaders you want to win can't get votes.
    17
  68. And that's a great thing.
    17
  69.  @adeshsingh4381  One needs special talent to make every conversation about Hindus and Muslims.
    17
  70. There is no boundary. It's one and the same. It has always been so.
    17
  71. That's a good thing. Hope you find media to enjoy elsewhere.
    16
  72.  @apatriot4400  Jyoti is blindly Anti-BJP and a complete moron.
    16
  73.  @92sathish  In Railways or IT or Semiconductors? .. Cause in each of those, his contributions are substantial. Stop asking stupid rhetorical question and read a little to find out what he has done.
    16
  74. True. That's why they voted for BJP last time. Then they were the dumbest. Today they are the smartest.
    15
  75. "We cannot lose out on this decade owing to political instability." - Absolutely. I would say, we can't afford to*.
    15
  76. The inflation that India currently experiencing is due to supply-side shock though. That is something that can't be controlled by rate hikes.
    15
  77. The article was pointless and so is this episode of cut the clutter.
    15
  78.  @pokerface579  Look at the entire comment section. That's all people can talk about from a 9 mins long video. Cause everyone knows how much of a bullshit it is.
    15
  79.  @gustafdn  Islam has created the same problems be it India, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, UK, Europe or Africa. The same problems exist irrespective of whether the community is educated or uneducated, irrespective of gender, financial condition, democracy or dictatorship. You can vary every other condition and keep one thing constant, i.e. Islam and you get the same result. I don't think living in Indonesia would tell me any different.
    15
  80. Does one need data if they have already formed an opinion ?🙂
    15
  81. This was always the situation in India. Things are actually much better now. It's just that social media is helping get such videos out to the public where as before one might find this mentioned in the obscure part of a local newspaper. These are governance issues which can't be controlled with under-funded police department AND with Police Reforms. Retired IPS officers and committees formed by the government have been advocating for it for quiet sometime. But I can bet you, whenever that reform comes, irrespective of who is in power, there will be protests and misinformation will be spread by the opposition to stop it from happening just like it was done in case of Farm Bills.
    15
  82.  @mdshuja8682  "gdp was 36 percent in muslim rule not a single communal riot happen." - Where are you getting these moronic details from?
    15
  83. That's how you lie.
    15
  84.  @vijayphoneix2115  Cause atheism doesn't mean one has to give up on one's culture.
    15
  85. He meant Hindu-Muslim riots. Meiti-Kuki riots aren't of any political party's making. If you can't differentiate between the two, then jokes on you.
    15
  86. India is sympathetic to Ukraine but I don't think India is going to change it's position. It can't and it shouldn't. Geopolitical decisions are never made based on emotions and feelings.
    14
  87.  @NarutoUzumaki-xd4db  "Well haryana's GDP per capita higher than any southern and western state." - You might want to recheck that data point.
    14
  88. The real question isn't "Why are Farmer's Children wearing torn clothes?". The real question is "wtf is 50% of India still involved in Farming?"
    14
  89.  @TheSkunkyMonk  Curry is an Indian thing. Nothing to do with Islam.
    14
  90. The "clown" has over-whelming public support and there are good reason for those support. I hope you come to your senses and realize that no amount of cherry-picked foreign media coverage will change the situation on the ground.
    14
  91. " I would be worried if they started talking about actually making the country better economically and socially." - You shouldn't be. That would workout in India's favour.
    14
  92. That's a fact as much as earth being flat is a fact.
    14
  93. Smart City Programs were too spread out and depended on State's co-operation. This has a more singular focus. This has a very good chance of succeeding. I would bet on it if there was an instrument available to do so. :-)
    14
  94. Objective. Maybe. But good? .. No way. Peter's assessment and understanding of India's foreign policy can be described as stupid at best. All his arguments have an implicit assumption of US leadership embedded in it.
    14
  95. He will be there till he is 85. Prince Charming can't do anything about it.
    14
  96. I am pretty sure you are. The problem is you only expect the PM to answer. Any answer by other parts of the govt. isn't considered a reply. For Example, people are going around asking, why isn't PM talking to the Farmers (after 11 rounds of talk have been held that is). That expectation is unrealistic.
    14
  97. Replace Humpty Dumpty with Rahul Gandhi and it still works.
    13
  98. ​ @Lakshmidasaa  "Nehru lost the only war in Indian history, still sit in his chair enjoying life." - He actually died a year after the war. And hindsight is 20/20. 70 years from now there will be people sitting on judgement and second guessing every decision Modi is taking now and having known how history turned out the will act as if they are experts and that they would have known exactly what should have been done. These guys usually aren't very smart. "Pakistan GDP was far better compared to India during Nehru's tenure." - In 1960, India's GDP was 10 times that of Pakistan and GDP per capita was eactly the same. So I don't know what you are talking about. Pakistan's economy did better than India during Indira's time but that was primarily because US aid. Pakistan got similar aid as South Korea. Something to compare. "I think he wanted the nation to be poor , so that he can enjoy elitism." - You clearly have no clue what you are talking about.
    13
  99. "Who just hate one Religion...for no Reason" - Let's be honest and stop saying "no reason". Kafir is not a word of endearment. The hate and claim of superiority started from one side, the other side is now reacting.
    13
  100.  @mohd_gani  No. You used to get information from the media that was tailored to appease your community and you "enjoyed" it. Then people saw through the hypocrisy and stopped the BS. Your messaihs, unable to find space in India for their BS, shifted to Al Jazeera, and you are here to "enjoy" this media.
    13
  101. Yongendra Yadav listens to no one. He desperately wiggles into any political space he finds.
    13
  102. I still don't know what's 'Lidium-ion' batteries.
    13
  103.  @000Aragon  Can't compare a two time CM and two time PM with someone who has never held an office (and is not even an MP anymore). Only highly delusional beings think there is a comparison.
    13
  104.  @carlosminjarez9050  False equivalence. Situations are not the same. You aren't even comparing apples with oranges, you are comparing apples with horses. These are desperate attempts to shield a religious ideology from criticism. It's pretty clear you don't know what you are talking about.
    13
  105.  @karanshah5604  The percentage of atheists in India is much higher than what the Pew Research shows, though. I call them passive atheists. They lead lives like atheists except they don't actively acknowledge it or think about it enough cause being an atheist or not doesn't make much of a difference in their lives.
    13
  106.  @jennaeveliina313  "theres nothing wrong in the religion itself" - There is everything wrong with the religion. Don't be naïve.
    13
  107. What would Prince Charming have done? .. Gone to the border and fought the Chinese off himself with his Judo Skills?? 😀
    13
  108.  @user-rh5jp2sh4s  "It's interesting how you jumble up Islamic extremism on oneside and Communism on the other, both of which are on the OPPOSITE!!!" - They are on opposite side of the ideological spectrum but they are in alliance within India and around the world. They obliterate each other only after one gains complete control within a sovereign political entity. These are basics that someone forming political opinions should know.
    13
  109. It's his point of view. Genius!
    13
  110.  @email4ady  demonetisation wasn't a reform. Farm Reforms are extremely necessary economic reform.
    12
  111. @Rahul Chanana New Laundry is subscription based journalism too. But it's serving it a ideology not it's subscribers.
    12
  112.  @agonnoga6100  That's a load of bullshit. The fact is 30 years of communist rule and union bazi has destroyed WB. Delhi has nothing to do with this. It's purely WB's own fault.
    12
  113. Democracy is doing fine under Modi. It's just that you don't like the outcomes that Democracy is bringing out.
    12
  114. I have heard both Atif Mian and Miftah Ismail( and Madiha Afzal too) speak multiple times. As a matter of personal choice out of all of their interviews, I like the ones on The Pakistan Experience Podcast the most.
    12
  115.  @Ayushkumar-ww7uq  He is.
    12
  116. 7:05 ISIS and Al Qaeda sell and refer to the same book as him.
    12
  117. Tbh, everyone outsources their regional security to the US and then sits back and relaxes while people from all over the world blame US for the situation. It's good that US is leaving. Let the regional powers take some responsibility. And let the Afghans sort it out for themselves. And what you say is true. The Taliban will take over and implement Sharia Law.
    12
  118. Nope. Just show of confidence in India's capital markets and it's regulators.
    12
  119.  @nissarpa1259  " people in south are not stupid" - People in the South aren't special either. People in the North aren't stupid. Dimwits with close to zero understanding of Indian politics explain election results using the logic that you just did. "There's huge divide between south and north of india in all aspects whether one like it or not." - Odisha and West bengal isn't South India. And Maharastra and Gujarat isn't North India. Atleast use some basic data and logic before eating up any theory that your political masters put forward. South Indians haven't experienced Islamic invasion or Partition and that's the reason they vote differently, not because they are "superior" in some way. They aren't.
    12
  120.  @Samuel-ts5dh  It''s more like Goliath vs Goliath. Your characterization couldn't be more wrong.
    12
  121.  @shashamnk2525  I would like to say I have read everything the experts have written on Farm Reforms over last 20 years. Why do you ask?
    12
  122. The Islamic army also makes sure the doors of Europe remain open.
    12
  123. As someone who works in AI, I am not sure what are you even talking about.
    12
  124. Everything is fair in Love and War. And this is war.
    12
  125. "Is this the world we live in now or has it always been like this?" - It has always been like this.
    12
  126. "More direct taxes on very high income slab" - How much higher exactly? .. Since its close to 43% already. And let's not forget, a lot 'sole proprietorship' also pay this tax.
    12
  127.  @themercifulguard3971  "We just need to pray for peace in the land." - No amount of praying can ensure that.
    12
  128. The relentless growing of paddy, which no one in India needs, only because government procures it at MSP is the root cause of the problem. Both Punjab and Haryana are part of the problem. Putting aside responsibility by saying "Haryana is contributing 80% to Delhi pollution" is a cop out.
    11
  129.  @VishalKumar-xp6gz  Nationalism stunt before a state election?? .. What variety of weed are you smoking, Sir?!
    11
  130. Darbaris and their blind love for their masters.
    11
  131. Not much to say. He is busy making fun of himself with almost every statement he has made. The most recent interview at Chatham House where he couldn't answer the obvious questions is every more funny.
    11
  132.  @Hehekk197  India is doing quiet well and its trajectory will be upwards for the next 10 years too. People who think India is "falling" either have a self-serving definition driven by ideology or have no clue what policy India is pursuing and how well those are executed.
    11
  133. What kind of weed does one smoke to believe BJP doesn't talk about growth, education, health and welfare? .. Atleast on growth and welfare they have delivered better than Congress ever did.
    11
  134.  @iskandar2712  So, I am "misguiding" people because I don't share the same views are you?? Islam is not a peaceful religion. And the argument that Islam is perfect but people are not, is a very bad argument forwarded by apologists all the time. Can you give me a straight forward answer to these questions? 1. What is the punishment for leaving Islam? 2. Do you think Islam and it's followers want to establish an Islamic Caliphate which rules over the world with Sharia being implemented everywhere?
    11
  135. The question really is whether BJP will get 230 seats or 300 seats or somewhere in between.. That is where the game is at right now.
    11
  136.  @balajialagurajan243  You can give a masterclass on how to bullshit with a straight face.
    11
  137.  @karlscher5170  That too.
    11
  138.  @Rajeshrranu  There is so much evidence supporting capitalistic models over socialist ones when it comes to developing economies that even Communist party of China couldn't ignore it. If Indians still can't open their eyes to it, perhaps Indians deserve to remain poor.
    11
  139. These two together so beautifully encapsulates what Congress was and why I will never vote for it.
    11
  140.  @NightDark-bw3xv  Freaking delusion.
    11
  141.  @__s__tatic  The other side claims exactly the same. They try to shame people who vote for Modi and not for RG.
    10
  142. Short the market. Put money where your mouth is.
    10
  143.  @BharatThatIsIndia  Autocratic rule, if that is what it actually is, is a good thing for India right now. Indian Demographics is not going to wait for Indian politics to sort itself out so that economic reforms, which are necessary but are politically unfavorable, can be pushed through. A lot of much required economic reforms were stalled because of a weak MMS govt. and the 'Suit-Boot ki sarkar' jibe (which stopped land reforms). Japan, South Korea, Taiwan were all military dictatorships when they grew at high rates. They turned into democracies as the growth slowed down. China and Vietnam are communist autocracies (what happens as the growth slows down is yet to be seen). Malaysia achieved high rate of growth under 22 years of rule by Mahathir. Singapore also grew under the unchallenged and autocratic rule of Lee Kaun Yew. People often ask, why can't we grow as fast as China? .. Why are we celebrating 7% growth when China could achieve double digit growth? I find those questions really stupid. We can't cause we can't do things like China can . We can't even execute a bullet train project timely. Why?.. Because land acquisition can't happen in Maharastra cause the under-serving Uddhav Thackeray wants to be CM. The fact is there is no democracy in this world which grew at very high economic rates which being a liberal democracy that you seem to yearn for (Not even the West). People who don't know history have a very ideological view of democracy with the belief the democracy is good for all situations and even a slightest decrease or perceived decrease in democratic workings of a govt. is the biggest cause for concern. People should stop considering all other factors and only lament the loss (not complete) of democracy.

  152. The other side of the coin: 1) Producing 1 kg of sugarcane requires 7000 ltrs of water. 2) The sugarcane 'mafia' is politically pretty powerful that it makes sure most of the irrigated water comes for sugarcane production and this has let to shortage of water in other regions (especially in the state of Maharastra) leading to farmer suicides. 3) India produces 25% more sugar than it consumes 4) But the extra 25% can't be exported cause the production isn't cost effective when compared to countries like Brazil. 5) Indian govt. then has to pay a subsidy on the extra sugar produced to make it's price low enough to be 'exportable'. Indian govt. is trying to solve this problem and the 'stubble burning' problem by promoting ethanol as a blended part of fuels used in automobiles. Kudos to companies like Yash Pakka who are trying to help the environment by using bagasse to make biodegradable use-and-throw utensils. But the real question is, should so much of sugarcane be produced in the first place? and how much bagasse does India need to replace all plastic products? And what if India doesn't produce enough bagasse to replace plastic, what then??

  153.  @sourabhkurhekar6210  Please don't give examples of high income countries which are Socialist. They can afford to. You should look at when and how they implemented Socialist policies (which India will have to do too once it has grown enough). AAP isn't just Socialist when it comes to Education & Health. They opposed Farm Bills (which were a step towards solving to stubble burning which pollutes Delhi) just to win elections in Punjab. Instead of supporting the reforms then implement Odd-Even rule which does fuck all to solve the issue of pollution and is an eye wash for concerned people. And AAP doesn't get involved in identity politics cause it doesn't need to. That's an advantage of Delhi constituency. You are being very naive. AAP is the same as Congress & BJP. Except BJP seems to be the one which is going to implement much required policy reforms at a political cost.

Your answer to the second question is one of the many answers. How do you think the caliphate will be established if not by war and conquering?? .. That is what the Islamic history has been throughout the establishment of all four caliphates. "2.I think they want because the world will be a more peaceful world with sharia law" - Go to 15:00 to see what Sharia looks like. It looks the same everywhere it's practised be it Indonesia or Afghanistan. Someone really has to be brain dead to believe this is what "peace" looks like or to believe that people from around the world will readily accept this. "1.There is no punishment if u leave Islam if u wanna leave thats ur decision" - You need to read the Qur'an again brother. The punishment for leaving Islam or apostasy is death.And that is why it's put into law in 13 Islamic countries. Apart from this, Islam is homophobic, misogynistic and anti-scientific as well (please don't tell me Qur'an has science in it. I have read the Qur'an and there is nothing scientific in it.) Brother, people have written books on the question you have asked. Maybe you should try reading them.

  178. 11:00 I don't know about other predictions but this is woefully wrong. First, India isn't an American ally, it's a strategic partner. What that means is, US won't fight Indian wars and vice versa. Second, in no possible scenario are Nepal, Bangladesh and Burma going to attack India. If one thinks that's possible then they don't really understand Indian relation with these countries. It's also highly unlikely that Sri Lanka would attack India. All these countries will remain neutral and avoid the war. Also, India wouldn't need to force Bangladesh to do anything or conquer it. Just not happening. A two front war, however, is much more likely where India goes to war with China and Pakistan simultaneously. And even if that happens, India will have to take care of itself without expecting US to directly intervene. That is what India needs to figure out.

You seriously need to check the sources from which you get your 'basic factual history'. " Same is being faced by Pakistan in form of destabilized Aghanistan but hope it will come out of it." - I love how your wash Pakistan of any responsibility and make it sound as if they are the victims. Pakistan was instrumental in destabilizing Afghanistan. They got paid for it too. They are just reaping what they had sown for so long. I hope they get out of it, but, sir the way you are white washing Pakistani involvement, you seem to be a England bred Mirpuri (Pakistani) Patriot. From Bradford by any chance? "Eating halal food , wearing religious clothes etc is a need and requirement for a community" - That NOT what they are demanding though. They are DEMANDING pork shouldn't be served in schools because they don't eat it. Well, how about they ask their children not to eat it while others who want to do? .. They are DEMANDING schools to remove all LGBTQ content. Can't really compare followers of Islam, a religion which wants to spread to every corner of the world and establish a Caliphate and Sharia law under which Kafurs can be killed with impunity, with other religions. It's really a special religion with special demands and needs special treatment. P.S: I am an Atheist. Not a Hindu religiously.

  244.  @sourabhkurhekar6210  You used Scandinavian countries wrt economics, why talk of them about identity politics. That's irrelevant. If you meant to say, Scandinavian countries didn't do identity politics and therefore got investments and that how they became high income countries, isn't a very fair comparison. First,Scandinavian countries never had a scope for identity politics as the population was homogeneous. But now that there is a sizeable Muslim Refugee population in those countries, you might want to recheck how their politics. Second, 95% of Indian politics & political parties are identity based. Identity politics isn't new in India nor unique to India. Third, I understand your concern over divisive politics of BJP but it's over exaggerated. It's true that an unstable environment is not where investments are made but that's not the case with India. Even with all the shit that BJP has pulled, the investors don't consider it while making their investment decisions. Investments don't come bcs of other reform issues.

  270.  @photosynth359  "Reservation especially the kind we have now, kills any chance of a merit based society." - It doesn't really. Reservations only apply to govt. organizations. Indian Economy is largely held in private sector. No one is stopping anyone from innovating or running start ups. Those are already merit based. Govt. run colleges like IITs or IIMs won't remain the only elite universities/college in India. There are private universities/colleges are coming up which are going to be equally elite. This obsession with reservations comes from a 'shortage' mentality and it's great for politicians to exploit. If everyone has a decent university to go to and a decent job which pays the same and has similar job guarantees as govt. jobs then people will shift (this is happening already). Neither removing reservations nor getting more reservations matter when it comes to policy.

  274.  @pratiush1000  China is doing what it's doing because there is a clear difference between India and China's hard power. The difference is structural and can't be bridged in a short period. The current behavior started after 2008 by China first stopping the process of exchanging maps in 2009 and then trouble started in 2012 and has been escalating ever since. It's going to continue to escalate unless India significantly bridges the economic gaps as well as the gaps in military modernization between India and China. That's 15 years at least, if not more. Not sure how being vocal about it on international forum makes any difference on the ground or in the perception of other countries. Pakistan has been and is still vocal against India every chance they get. What has that achieved?? .. Jacksh*t. Instead it has made it more difficult for Pakistan to make the 'Geo-economic' pivot that it so desperately needs to make. China also has a port in India's "area of influence". What difference does it make if India is vocal about it? .. Do you think the King of Bhutan would make a different statement if India protested vocally against China but couldn't make much difference on the ground? .. If anything, it's like telling your Indo-Pacific partners that you are not capable of handling trouble at your own borders. India repeatedly says relations between India and China are not normal and they can't be normal unless the border issue is solved. That's smart, imo. Rather than taking a very hard position publicly without having the capability to see it through on the ground.

Why do you think there isn't a single country which has grown at very fast rates while being democratic? PVN Rao could carried out reforms when India has no reserves and the push had come to shove. In those conditions reforms were the only way ahead. Vajpayee carried out reforms and then lost elections. The benefits of the reforms in the form of improved economy were enjoyed by UPA, which did no reforms. Also those were simpler reforms and need much less political capital. Today the reforms needed by Indian economy are way more complex and need a good majority to execute. That's the reason Congress talked about GST for 2 decades but it was only done by BJP. Without land and labour reforms India can kiss it's chances of becoming a manuacturing hub goodbye. Last time BJP tried it Prince charming stopped BJP by calling them a "suit boot ki sarkar". Without manufacturing we can about "unemployment" till cows come home but it is not going to be solved.

"These folks should stop embarrassing themselves!" - No dude. You are. "Whatever little we now produce in the country is just assembled here with almost all components being imported from China." - That's exactly what China did when it started and still does for many things. Which is why China has a trade deficits with Japan, SK and Taiwan. "Whence since Galwan our imports from China have risen exponentially..." - That's cause our exports to the world are increasing and we, as you yourself said manufacture finished goods. Finding import substitutes isn't easy and hence our imports from China will come down after 2025.

You really need to question all previous Govts for this failure as well. It's not like Healthcare was awesome before BJP came to power and destroyed everything within a span of 7 years. Privatisation addresses both the issues. You lack imagination which is why you think Privatisation means letting private hospitals run. That's not the case. And privatisation never increases price for consumers. That was the original discussion. You seem to be getting diverted.

One stone, two birds. I am thinking out loud here. It might not happen but there is a possibility. If it happens, it will be bad for India, imo.

"If India can steal the Muslim-majority Kashmir region, Pakistan should be able to do the same with Hyderabad" - Pakistan should be able to manage it's economy and pay debts as well.

The whole of China at that period gone through this trauma. It was a crazy period in China called the cultural revolution." - Really?? .. Tibet was annexed in 1950, sir. Full 15 years before Cultural Revolution. Off-course the logic was, it was part of China since "ancient times". * China has no desire to grab other people's land - This is the best one These are classic CCP Propaganda statements. All factually wrong. Just checking if you know about Tienanmen Square or if you think that was Western Propaganda too? "Why would the Chinese oppress Islam and Catholism? It doesn't even make sense from a Chinese perspective." - There is only one perspective that exists in China and that's the CCP's perspective. CCP does what it does cause it wants to preserve it's power. And it can't have religions which have trans-national loyalties and hence the oppression/suppression. I don't mean it in an offensive way, but you seriously lack perspective. A complete absence of perspective actually when it comes to religion and caste system. You don't get it. Another reason why I said, you don't know much about India in my previous comment. Please tell me where you are from though. That answer should be very intriguing.

That constant isn't culture. It's religion. So stop the BS. Just because you are born into the religion and can't see (or refuse to see) the problem it causes doesn't mean everyone else won't be able to see it. The argument that it's "cultural values" is easily the stupidest among all the other arguments the apologists like to use.

Unlike Congress who screwed up economy badly leading to 10%+ inflation for three continuous years, nothing of the sort has happened during Modi. They were able to keep inflation under control after the economic shock during covid.

  413.  @slashybluesy  "If you're arguing that they should be motivated to grow some other crop and the burden of paddy shifted other water rich states while keeping up with the demand.

" If you think no one in India needs the paddy grown there then you clearly haven't looked at the figures. 80% of the paddy grown in Punjab goes to different parts of india. So if you're arguing that the country doesn't need the paddy grown by Punjab and Haryana, that's a false argument." - That's not my argument but anyone looking at figures can easily 'figure' out that they are growing way more than the demand. It's not because of no reason that India sells rice, at a discounted rate, to China to feed it's pigs. "However, even that argument doesn't have legs as of now as many of the other states where it can potentially be moved to doesn't have the kind of storage and transport infrastructure that both these states have." - Don't you think that's a moot argument given "80% of rice they grow is transported to other states", as per you. If the states which consume it also produce it, one wouldn't need "storage and transport" at such big scale. And I can assure you there is enough capacity in other states to produce rice. It's not a coincidence that all southern states, WB, Odisha and North east Indian staple food is rice. It's because the geographical conditions are suitable for rice production. Where is the "Rice Bowl of India"? .. Hint: Not in Punjab or Haryana.

"Similarly headquarters of major companies are being relocated from Mumbai to Gugaon and Noida after Maharashtra is on the wrong side of the political fence." - Central govt. doesn't decide where private companies move. These arguments mean jackshit. "India was not supposed to be governed centrally " It isn't. India is pretty federal. "Centralized rule from New Delhi is basically continuation of the exploitative and extractive legacy of the British." - That's ideology speaking. Not data. The fact is, eastern states like Odisha have done fairly well while WB deteriorated during the same period. No start up wants to go to WB and always launch their services in Kolkata last. Of the major metros that India initially had, Chennai and Mumbai have done fairly well. New Metros have come up but Kolkata is a hollow shell of it's glory days. No one stopped states like WB ,Kerala and Punjab from taking advantage of the IT boom, but they didn't. IT companies in Rajarhat came up only after communists left. Blaming the Center is a cheap trick. Holds no water.

  428.  @debalik8806  "it began with Light industry, moved to assembly of raw materials then slowly indigenized ALL the Sub-Components & then eventually the Raw materials as well, ultimately creating hundreds of Entire industries whose Complete chain of production lies within China." - So, it took decades for China to reach a position but India is supposed to do that from the start and unless that happens we are going to say that no manufacturing is happening in India?? .. What kind o a position is that? .. Manufacturing in any country starts with assembly. Followed by other merchants slowly shifting other parts of the supply chain to where the product is being assembled. "Not even USA dares to put sanctions on China. " - This argument is irrelevant in the discussion but I will answer it cause you have brought it up. That's because US doesn't have alternatives yet. That won't be the case very soon. A consumer(US) always has the option to diversify it's choices, but if US stops buying from China, where are they going to sell their manufactured stuff? .. US, the country which prints dollars has the upper hand here. "So Yes, China supplies 72% of India's raw materials including 80% of the Active Pharma Ingredients, the lifeline of our prized Pharmaceuticals industry. " - This is factually wrong. We only get 30% APIs from China. And that happened not because China produced APIs better or cheaper than India could. It's because India Pharma moved up the value-chain to produce formulations (something that China hasn't been able to do), where there is better margins. Indian API industry used to dominate in 2000s, before moving formulations. So, you need to understand the context before selling India short and making it sound as if Indian Pharma will be crippled if China doesn't give us APIs. "Well I am a Computer Science student so I am not an expert in Economics but I do have a close Friend who is a brilliant Economics student. I understand the basics of Economics very well & Technology " - I am someone working in tech as well and I graduated 13 years back. As far as economics is concerned I am sure Economist advising the India government have more experience than your friend. "So Argue with facts if you can Not with useless barbs." - All my arguments are fact based, always. What you need to do is to stop over glorifying China and self-deprecating India/Indians. RG talks all bullshit through and through to paint a picture as if nothing is happening. You might have been too young to remember how Congress handled the economy and how they execute. BJP wins in that respect hands down. So I could do a little less with Rahul Gandhi's bullshit. If he comes to power (which is unlikely), India can kiss it's manufacturing dream good bye.

Operations, India wouldn't have the capability to produce Vaccines or the cheap medicines that are sold at Jan Ausadhi Stores. Secondly, it's competition that drives prices lower and brings efficiency in the system, so it really doesn't matter if it's internet, healthcare or Education, Privatisation always means more competition and hence better quality products for consumers at a lower price. ALWAYS. People really should keep their political differences aside and try to understand policy before they start yapping.

  445. Not really true. It's true however that the only thing that Punjab does is agriculture while other states do agriculture and other stuff too.

  474.  @PomegranateChocolate  "Northeasterners in general, and that includes Sikkimese and Tibetans often face ethnic slurs (momos, chinkis..etc.), harassment or even beat to death just because of their appearance. " - Racial slurs are a reality of India. Every person from one part faces it when he/she goes to the other part. The only difference is that you think it's unique to the Northeasterners. "There are a lot of insurgencies operating in the northeast and they are met with brutal suppression by the Indian arm forces.The Nagas people have been fighting for their independence from day one when India was created in 1947 is just one example. " - There were insurgencies in Punjab ,Tamil Nadu and Assam as well. Each of which is Culturally linguistically, historically and religiously related to "India". Do they see "Indians" as occupiers too?? Not to mention the Maoist insurgency in the Indian heart land. Insurgency is a matter of internal security and it will and always has been brutally suppressed by any Nation State across the world. Look at what the Chinese are doing to the fellow- "mongoloid stock" in Tibet. And that was the reason why in 1962, during the Indo-China war, Northeast insurgents could declare freedom, but they didn't. You need to find out Why? Aheto Sema (recently passed away) who was once a fierce enemy joined the ranks of Indian Army.Why? I have many naga (& khasi ) friends, from many diff. tribes Ao, Angami, Sema, Lotha etc. And you present a very one-sided and selective narrative of the situation. "Bollywood is banned in many parts of the northeast while K-pop is popular there. This shows what their cultural orientation is which is no surprise." - Also, goes to show that you can be part of the Indian State and still maintain your 'cultural orientation'. Btw, k-pop is popular in many other parts of India as well, just like Anime is. It has nothing to do with "cultural orientation". " If it is not for the British had an empire in South Asia the northeast would never have been part of India." - Very likely. But then no one can really know what the Indian State would look like. Also, there is no way to say that Northeast would be independent countries.Highly likely that China would see it as a way to bypass the Malacca Strait and instead of building CPEC it would just probably occupy the Northeast, since China's best excuse to do that is "it was part of China since ancient times" and offcourse the "mongoloid stock", which you think is the most important binding factor. You Lack Perspective, my friend.

  475.  @PomegranateChocolate  Ahh! .. Now I get it. You don't lack perspective. You have a perspective. Just that it's a Chinese one. :-) And you want to impose that as a universal view. Btw, your arguments are full of factual errors and assumptions.But I won't waste my time correcting them.Just wanted to talk abou the two which stood out the most are: "One is ethnic oppression. The other is religious oppression." - China under CCP is one of the most oppressive countries. Not just of other ethnicity but especially of other religions (Islam & Catholicism specifically.) Your views seem to be from some parallel universe. I know you will disagree. But let's agree to disagree. And "East Asian cultures in general and Chinese culture in particular because Western culture and Chinese culture could not have been more different." - Not sure why you had to say this and use this Chinese v/s West perspective throughout your argument, especially since I am India, not from a Western Country. Also, one would never say this if they knew how similar Chinese and India Cultures are (saying this from my experience with my Chinese friends from my Uni days.)It's pretty clear that you don't know much about India, India culture or the North-East India.

  476. ​ @PomegranateChocolate  "The land grabbing of Tibet starts before India even exists" - Firstly, I can't respect anyone who uses terms like "before India even exists". Just goes to show you have zero clue of India's history. Indian civilization has been there for thousands of years just like the Chinese Civilization. The Indian Nation state is new, just like the Chinese Nation state is new. "the PRC and the ROC do not recognize each other, meaning as far as the PRC is concern Taiwan is part of the PRC, and as far as Taiwan is concerned mainland China is part of the ROC" - I am well aware of this " Taiwan (the Republic of China) never concedes the independence of Mongolia and vehemently condemned the annexation of South Tibet (so-called Arunachal Pradesh) by India." "You think only Communist China has a problem with India's land-grabbing of South Tibet?" Dude it doesn't matter if what RoC concedes and what it doesn't. RoC doesn't even have the mainland, do you think anyone cares what RoC claims and whether it concedes something or it doesn't?? .. You can call it "South Tibet" or whatever you like. The fact is the area is called Arunachal Pradesh, it is under Indian Control and it belongs to India legally as per the Shimla Convention signed between British India and Tibest govt. in 1914. The only land grabbing that was done was by RoC, which annexed by RoC in 1950. Now, Roc believes Tibet was still under Chinese Rule when it clearly wasn't after Xinhai Revolution in 1912, is Roc's problem. Not India's. " The land grabbing of Tibet starts before India even exists. It starts during the British Raj, a certified expansionist. " - The real land grabbing started even before that. Done by Qing dynasty (which latter lost it), another certified expansionist force. "When India came into existence it continues the footstep of the British and continues the intrusion into Chinese territories." - India inherited it's territory from British India just like RoC/PRC from the Qing Dynasty. China keeps Xinjiang (and Tibet) in it's territory and brutally suppresses their secessionist impulse even today . And just like NorthEast India is culturally, linguistically, religiously different from rest of India, same goes for Xinjiang and China. But you don't seem to have any problem with that. You dismiss it as "western propaganda". But You have a problem bcs North east India is a part of India and you go on to tell me how much they hate Indians. Do you have any idea how much the Ughyurs hate the Chinese? In this whole exercise, you are exposing yourself as the hypocrite you are.

  477.  @PomegranateChocolate  "On August 15, 1947 there were still over five hundred princely states that were never part of British India." - They were all a part of British India. Each one of them. The treaty of accession that they signed was for them to legally agree to accede into the "Nation State" of India, but they were all part of British India just like NEFA. If your logic is applied (which isn't logical at all) probably more than 50% of mainland India is also "land-grabbed". Can't pay heed to such logic. "Shimla convention has no legal standing." - As per you. I keep asserting it cause according to me it does. "Those who are stuck in India with the exception of a few have a lot of resentment towards India. " - You would love to believe that CCP propaganda isn't it? .. Except I have met them in Dharmashala, where they live and they can't stop abusing the Chinese. See how they show their 'love' fr China: In India: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EL4-Ffp0z6Q But also in China: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RnBkD_1N1QE "hey have relatives in China and know their relatives are doing much better in China than in India. " - You Chinese morons don't get religion and culture, do you? .Maybe cause you destroyed your own during the Cultural Revolution. Not everything is about money. " I predict in the upcoming years the exiled Tibetans in India will be a big headache for India and may trigger the cessation of the northeast from India" - We have handled much bigger headaches. We will be fine. Moreover, given your low intellect I am not very worried. "the largest third world turd on this planet earth" - A third world country on which China, even after all it's advances, can't assert it's claims. Such is the so called powerful Dragon. India's GDP and per capita GDP is exactly where China's was 15 years back. I guess that means China has only recently evolved from being a third world turd.

Stop assuming and imagining and start reading. This is an infight within the Ambedkarite Buddhist Dalit Community. A Dalit director made content using stories allegedly from this Dalit writer's book withput giving her credit. She was upset and took the the twitter like activists instinctively do. She was attacked by her own community for making this an issue and not seeing the larger picture.

  481.  @karanbirsingh2615  I don't know about the specific matter but I really doubt what you say. The Economic Survey says Himanchal produced 4.84 lakh metric tonnes of Apple. Am I supposed to believe all of that was either produced or procured just by Adani? "What should Farmers & unemployment youth do?" - You think the solution to this is changing the govt at the State or Centre? .. A party like Congress which can't even organise itself properly can solve India's unemployment issue?

  487.  @iforindia8509  What you are asking is to drive by looking exclusively in the rear view mirror. Everyone knows how that goes. And as for Fact Finding, it was established by the ASI that there existed a structure below the Babri Masjid. But that structure can't be definitively identified as a Mandir. The Structure was built in 12th Century and broken within 60 years of building it. Babur came 400 years later. But those fact didn't change anything. Did they?

Becoming a rich nation is the priority using whatever politics allows it. As for BJP turning India Theocratic. It's is an impossibility, imo. There are limits to how divisive BJP can be.

  505.  @zeus-no2hv  He is partially right. One needs to understand though that India can't consume all the byproducts that the refineries produce. The cheap oil that India buys, which comes at a geopolitical cost and needs a lot of maneuvering to be achieved, is NOT done so that private companies can profit from it. It' was done to keep inflation arising from supply side constraints low.

  512.  @jrkr7357  You should study why the names that you suggest don't make sense when viewed from religious prism. If religion was the reason, as you have stupidly suggested, then Nepal shouldn't be in the list. On the Contrary, even countries like Iran and Saudi have no problems with India. The reason is Size and Proximity. Having mild anti-India stance and politics around it in countries which are much smaller than India is expected, given the overwhelming difference in size(economically and otherwise). But if some morons believe that then can cross any red lines and do whatever they want to, then they need to think again. Stop giving surmons as to what India should study and what not. India knows what it's doing.

  527.  @attractabundance2779  True. Winning 99 seats after 20 years of being in politics and 10 years of anti-incumbency is a great "comeback".

  528.  @attractabundance2779  Yup. 240 seats is anyday a great victory when compared to 99 seats after 10 years of anti-incumbency. Only brains without the ability to make simple mathematical comparisons think otherwise.

  532.  @hamzayousafzai9204  "and most if not all my views that i wrote were directed towards that electoral base" - And it would still be wrong. As I said, a very small percentage of all the 42% voted for BJP for those reasons. Your statements are proving my point about the delusion of the members of other side of the spectrum. "i would be much awaiting to hear your views about the other minority proclamations." - The views are very simple. The minority is more right wing than right wing it hates. This was previously hidden but now a global consensus is building against it and it showed partially in the election results of Poland previously. And more recently in elections of Italy and Sweden.

  538. He isn't in a hurry. He and everyone else that understands politics knows that one can become a CM and use it as a platform to catapult on to a potential future PM face. And therefore he understands that it's difficult for him to become a CM unless Prince Charming becomes the PM, otherwise he will be seen as as threat. Prince Charming has been relaunched several times and him becoming PM of India is almost an impossibility. So, he is trying his best to become a CM without waiting for prince charming to become PM cause then he will have to wait for quiet sometime. He is the one, btw, who worked on ground and party giving him the deputy CM post isn't a favor. He absolutely deserves to be the CM.

Many from dalit communities got converted to Buddhism. They have come up with their own rituals etc. The entire idea is to not be a "Hindu" cause they associate the caste system with Hinduism, which is controlled by the Brahmins.

  598. 1. China has no religion. It exterminated it. India knows how to handle religious ad racial conflicts. China doesn't. That behaviour is reflected in what is happening with the tibetian buddhists and Uyghur muslims. 2. The Chinese political system is extremely brittle. CCP owns every level of the government, the bureaucracy and the army. If CCP goes the entire system collapses and given the opaqueness in the system no one would know until it's about to collapse. India on the otherhand is very malleable. Political leaders and parties come and go. Bureacracy, army, police etc stays. You might want to read what happened in Japan and South Korea when their high growth period ended, which is what is happening in China right now and will play out in the next decade.

  606.  @ezhilarasinanda5750  Taxes on Fuel are levied both by Central and State Govts. State Govts. charge close to 40 Rs from the fuel prices that people pay. All center can do is reduce the taxes it charges which won't make much of a difference. So, if it's about taxes maybe you should talk to your State's Ministers rather than the Central Aviation minister. "Increase in fuel prices cause inflation" is superficial statement which makes for great political rhetoric but nothing more than that. Inflation happens because of multiple reasons. If you try to find out the change in cost of Coffee, Edible Oil, Steel (and other metals), sugar and even Pharma APIs like paracetamol you will find every commodity price has increased drastically. That has happened because of supply chain disruptions and NOT because of "exorbitant taxes". That's just a perception that opposition loves to create, thanks to limited understanding of Indian Citizens. Crude is a commodity that India buys from outside. Govt. can't control it's prices. And if citizens cry about fuel prices then govt. reduces it but then raises Oil bonds to fund the deficit which are also paid by the citizens.

That the stupid way of doing it.

Even after having achieved 100% literacy, malayalis have to travel outside their state & country to find work. Labour unions call strikes every other day, effectively slowing down any progress. Kerala hasn't benefited from the IT boom that happened right next door and it will not take part in the manufacturing boom that will happen in another bordering state. But most malayalis don't get it. So, you see feeling pity doesn't change anything.

  615.  @786checkmate  " I didn't know the UK was in the islamic world " - Islamic world exists where ever the Ummah exists. One only has to go to East ham, London or Bardford , for example to understand what I mean by the Islamic World. "We all know they did. America is the biggest terrorist group in the world. " - "We" stands for the Ummah here, no one else. This is an example of counter-factuals that goes around in the Islamic World, while Leaders of Islamic Countries hug US Leaders to advance their interests. " And they did create, fund and train Taliban and al qaeda. " - Saying it a 100 times doesn't make it true. Taliban was created and funded by Pakistan for it's own geo-political apprehensions. Only funded by the US at a later stage. It's quiet well documented as well. The capability of Muhammads' (calling themselves "Mo") selectively reading of history to suit a narrative is astonishing. "Funny how you had to attribute my claim to the "Islamic world" - there is no such thing. Not after the West destroyed the Caliphate " - Anyone who has read Qur'an and the Hadiths would know why the Ummah yearns for the Caliphate. The Caliphate lives on in Islamist minds. That's what the ISIS was trying to do. Ummah might not like their methods, but the end goal has always been the same. To bring the whole world under an Islamic Caliphate and implementing the Sharia. "Prime example is thanks giving when they have the natives blankets infected with the smallpox disease. " - West has done many evil things. No doubt about that. But that doesn't mean everything that's wrong with Islam should be attributed to the west. For Example, What's happening in Aceh, Indonesia(which is exactly what happened in Afghanistan under Taliban) is independent of any western power's interference. I am as awake as one can be. I have a very good understanding of how 'Power' and 'ideology' work.

  618.  @shravanraj3108  "Communists are popularly anti religion.. how can they want a Religious Sharia law to be state law" - Yes, you are right. Communists are anti-religion. Communists don't want Sharia Law. islamists want Sharia law. And Communists find Islamist of India to be their ally against the politically fighting the BJP. That's why they ally with the Islamists, which is interpreted by some as 'communists want Sharia Law in India. If BJP isn't a force they need to fight anymore then Communists and Islamists will turn on each other. Where there are no Communists or Hindutva, there are sects with Islam which fight to maximize their power. For example, in Pakistan there is an power struggle ongoing between the Barelvis, Deobandis and three other groups.

Since then India has been waiting for a second set of economic reforms, for 30 years. "a revolutionary act like RTI and FOOD SECURITY ACT " - They had to bring in RTI to show that they are transparent after having been marred in various scams like Spectrum, Coal gate, National Herald. And Food Security Act was an act making is easier for govts. to do what they were already doing i.e. giving out handouts in exchange for votes. Don't make it seem as if the govt. in power had to fight long political battles to get these passed and that these acts did much for India. "brute majority can only come into play when nobody is willing to play along like the nuclear bill of upa..!!this govt wants to show its brute strength all the time...they bulldoze every so called reform without discussing it bcoz they want to use it in elections" - So your logic is use brute majority sometimes but not all the times?! :-)

  636.  @PomegranateChocolate  "Manipur was annexed in 1949 when India forces its leader to sign the so called Article of Ascension under gun point." - Find out how Hyderabad became a part of India. More than 400 Article of Ascensions were signed but that still doesn't mean they weren't part of British India. "Tawang is the Sixth Dalai Lama's birthplace and home to a four hundred yeas old Tibetan monastery. Tawang has never been part of the British Raj." - Tawang is within McMohan Line and hence India territory. British India kept trying to assert control since 1935, after a British citizen went into Tawang and got arrested. It wasn't successful until 1951. That wasn't annexing. That was asserting control on an area which belonged to India as per Shimla Convention. For all these stories of "annexing" tibet, Dalai Lama and 100k Tibetians decided to take refuge in India. God knows why! Especially, since Chinese are such benevolent people. "At the end of 2008, a little over a decade after Britain returned Hong Kong back to China, the Tibet issue finally has no utility for Britain as a bargaining chip of Britain in dealing with China on Hong Kong, Britain finally has no stake in Tibet and can afford to be honest for once. The British government put out a statement recognizing China's sovereignty of Tibet (before it was suzerainty, not sovereignty) " - I already knew this. Not sure what makes you think change in British Govt.'s stance in 2008 should have any bearing on India's idea of sovereignty. UK has it's own interest now and can have different positions based on it's own interest. Trade with China is good, so why antagonise China, can be a very easy explanation rather than your suggestion that UK admits it cause it's true. " Indians are shameless people." - True. Only the China are God Sent and hence center of the world. "No Chinese government, whether the PRC or ROC (Taiwan) ever recognizes the so-called MacMahon line." - Means jackshit really cause that's the only thing India govt. recognises and controls the territory that it claims. "Free South Tibet (so-called Arunachal Pradesh) from India." - As soon as you Free East Turkmenstan. Until then, don't hold your breath. Or do. That's really up to you. I think we have had enough of this. This will be my last reply.Bye.

If there is a huge price gap between what farmers are being paid and what the super market is selling them at (and there is no shortage), then anyone else with a distribution( which will be many in a developed country like UK) can undercut the supermarkets and bring the cost down.

Most corrupt leaders have joined BJP so corruption is still there, so what has changed. The only sector which is doing well is the services sector and the software sector but that change already started during congress time and with the advent of internet and it is the Indian public that should be lauded for it and not modi." - This shows how little you understand of how the economy works and why does Modi win elections.

  685.  @__s__tatic  "When crude oil was $110, during congress time I remember we were still paying around 80 rupees and now when crude oil is around $80 people are paying around 100 rupees" - That's because Modi in his first regime Modi changed the the upper cap on the amount of tax that can be collected on oil. He didn't reduce the retail price by increasing the tax collected by the government because he understands two thing, (1) that it's easy to reduce the oil prices but increasing them is a political problem and (2) passing on the lower crude prices effectively implies subsidizing the rich (If you know even the basics of economics you would know how). So he collects the extra tax and targets it to the lower most strata of the population. This is one way he has funded the building of toilets in his first term. that is one way he gets votes. Effective delivery to the lower most strata. Ajay Maken of congress wrote an article on this. You would know this if you weren't the one getting all your info from WhatsApp and had a habit of reading books and articles. "but according to you inflation is still in check even though prices are at an all time high, this kind of logic only you can understand." - Champoo, look at the composition of CPI and WPI. There is no direct correlation between Crude Oil prices and inflation. Your simple mind is having problems comprehending logic cause you think how can inflation be low when crude prices are higher than 2010. For one, the value of 100 Rupees is lower than the value of 80 Rupees 10 years back. In today's value 80 rupees is same as 128 rupees. That's how inflation works. You are paying less than what you used to during Congress regime. Too much of free education. That's it. Not going to reply anymore. Talking to you is a waste of time.

Let's not kid ourselves to believe these "rectifications" that we are talking about haven't been brought because of political motives. That's why other "rectifications" aren't talked about. One example is, of what Marathas did to the Bengalis. I have never heard anyone talk of "rectifying" that cause it's politically harmful. " Shouldn't we learn something from our past instead of ignoring it" - Yes, we should. One Big lesson would be to not fight among ourselves and weaken ourselves especially when being invaded.

  733.  @SikhSaakhi  Covering more crops under MSP isn't going to solve anything unless the govt. procures them too. If govt. procures them that literally means India will go bankrupt. If a legal gaurantee is provided on all the crops then the private sector won't procure it from the farmers but from outside as International rates are much lower than MSP. Asking for a legal gaurantee on MSP isn't the solution. Diversification as per free market demand and establishment of robust supply chains is the only solution. What govt. can do is setup a diversification fund to help the smooth transition while the supply chain Infrastructure is still being built.

  734.  @SikhSaakhi  All reports I am talking about are based by the govt. ALL. I didn't read even a single private economic report. I didn't wake up to Indian farm issues after the protest. This debate has been going on for 17 years. I came to know about them 3 years back. I am pretty well informed about the situation. How about you read the report Montek Singh Ahluwallia recently made for the Punjab govt and tell me what it says ?? .. Except a few economists like Kaushik Basu there is a broad consensus on this topic among Economists. They always has been.

  735.  @SikhSaakhi  And honestly, this Adani-Ambani narrative is so pathetic. Indians should stop doing that. It's self defeating. In 1970s it was the Tata-Birla, now it's Adani-Ambani. ITC is the largest corporate that operates in the Agri Sector. Find out of the farmers working with ITC to produce Ashirvad atta feel cheated or have their incomes risen because of working with ITC?

  736.  @SikhSaakhi  Dude I read the article. What a bunch of socialist/communist bullshit it is, full of factual misrepresentation. Just the first paragraph itself is SO misleading. I am very informed about the labour laws as well & the recent reforms. Those reforms were EXTREMELY necessary and long overdue. The previous laws, in the name of "worker right protection" made sure the workers never have jobs in the first place. They were the reason Kanpur's industries were destroyed and today people from UP work as migrant labors in other states. None of these are "BLACK LAWS". Either you are brainwashed yourself and don't understand what you are talking about or you have vested interest in keep the system as it is.

  742. @Rahul Chanana Yes. My point was "It shows the difference between subscription based journalism and ad-based journalism." isn't very accurate. Subscription based Journalism can still be just as bad (deliberately propagating an ideological narrative) as ad-based Journalism and because one paid for the subscription based journalism, one is highly likely to believe it (cause there is an implicit assumption that it's serving the subscriber). Makes it more dangerous. Not sure how this problem can be solved. I absolutely understand "If you don't pay for the product, then you are the product" concept. Which is exactly why I also like the idea of "paying for better governance".

And two things, one, IT in India developed because the govt. ignored the sector and didn't regulate and interfere as it did in every other sectors. So no political party had anything to do with the success of early IT cities like Bengaluru. Hyderabad on the other hand, which came up as an IT City a bit later was purely made so by Chadrababu Naidu. Congress had nothing to do with it. So, you are just making up stuff right there.And two, companies aren't infra.

Why else would someone from TN or WB call Modi Arrogant or his Politics cheap?? .. How is it that they are unable to see the arrogance of Stalin or Mamta Banerjee (and the violence under her governance) ? Atleast Stalin's record in terms of getting investment into the state is good. Mamta doesn't even have that. She has a record of driving investment out of WB.

It's just that you don't have the guts to admit that you might be wrong or that other people who disagree with you is not only because they have "propaganda" in their mind. " I have absolutely no problem in saying that Mamata is one of the worst politicians Bengal has ever had." - Jyoti Basu has an undisputed claim on that. Not even Mamta can beat him. "Now do you have the self awareness to say Modi is playing cheap politics to divide our society and create unrest for political gains and putting money in the pocket of the rich? " - This is what propaganda looks like.Especially the "putting money in the pocket of the rich". What an astoundingly stupid thing to say!! .. " I don't think you have it in yourself to question or criticize the government you voted for." - The best part is, I didn't vote for BJP.

If you choose to keep buying raincoats while the sun is shining or it's winter, so be it. But today you don't have that option. What's available are only raincoats and people who are selling raincoats don't want anyone else to provide any other option which would be in direct competition to what they are selling. The narrative of corporates hoarding and exploiting farmers is utter bullshit, spread by people with vested interests and believed by individuals, who although are well intentioned, have a very superficial understanding of the situation and hence end up believing the bullshit that they are being fed. This is an economic policy decision. There is strong data backing the decision. These same proposals have been made, debated & discussed with all stakes holders for two decades now. Any Economist worth one's salt, supports these reforms expect a very few, who don't. Anyone who says there are Economists on both sides of the arguments is lazy enough to not find out that it's not true. Anyone talking about Swaminathan Committee when it comes to MSP, hasn't read the entire document. They wouldn't use the same document otherwise.

  795.  @amans5422  Well, the value that you put on earning my respect is what I put in earning yours. That's mutual. It's very well known that they have good relationship with the current govt. But saying the govt. is bring in reforms which have been discussed and agreed upon for ages now, is purely to benefit Adani-Ambani is dumbfuckery. And I don't track Adani cause his business are in sectors J don't understand but Ambani's rise in wealth is purely his own doing and would have happened irrespective of who is in power. They either don't understand how the wealth mechanics work or are extremely dishonest. They are same people who said Ambani's Wealth multiplies as India's GDP drops. What a dumb statement that is. Extremely dumb. Don't be surprised if Ambani replaces Elon Musk & Jeff Bezos to become the richest person in the world in another 5 years cause that's bound to happen, irrespective of who is in power and how is India's economy doing.

  796.  @amans5422  Why do you think govt. would have a say in who gets to invest in a Publicly listed company??.. You must be out of your mind, if you think anyone would invest in India if govt. starts interfering in deals between to publicly listed company. Less investment would mean less jobs, but then I am sure you will be the first to crib about unemployment in India. And where is this "monopoly" bullshit coming from ? .. Jio competes with companies which are behemoths, like Amazon which joined hands with another behemoth Airtel. You would rather have American corporates monopolising Indian Markets rather than an India one. Everything else is Ok, but God forbidding if an Indian Corporate is winning the race, that's "stifling competition". Where the fuck were you when govt. let Google to monopolise the Mobile OS Market ? Recently, govt. Also allowed 100% FDI in all Airtel subsidiary, but that's Ok too, right?.. As long as it's not Adani or Ambani, you won't talk bullshit. Bullshit starts only when then start getting involved. Then all the negatives of Capitalism will be highlighted. STOP making up issues where there are none.

  800.  @siddharthmanwani6065  I need to revisit what exactly happened then, but two things I a very sure about, (1) Syrian destablisation was the result of the larger trend of Arab Spring. Countries like Egypt successfully transitioned into democracies by over throwing Mubarak. Libiya destabilised after over throwing Gaddafi and countries like Syria couldn't over throw Assad cause he was willing to use much more brutal measures to suppress the protest, even kill gun down his own citizens. Now, US may have been involved covertly, trying to encourage and support pro-democracy activists etc, but it wasn't involved physically until the Syria destabilized. (2) "So to overthrow Assad the US literally supported terror groups like AlQaeda and ISIS." - This is very hard to believe. The vacuum in Syrian territory which Assad couldn't control after the destabilization led to ISIS occupying territory and growing. US literally armed Kurdish rebels to fight ISIS. turkey wasn't happy about it). You seem to be suggesting exactly the opposite. The narrative that Global Islamists like to push is that since west is responsible for the mess in the middle east, west should let refugees come in. That's absolute bullshit cause middle eastern powers are very much responsible or a lot of destabilization but they take in zero refugees.

Which genius told you that GST implementation "failed"??.. Congress kept talking about GST for 2 decades before finally BJP did it. Congress talks a lot and does implements nothing but when it comes to bad ideas like Retro active taxation, you will see Congress will be the first to implement it. There were so many disastrous things that Congress did in UPA- II that it took Indian economy 10 years to recover from that crap. It's not my problem that Congress fools you so easily. You are free to believe whatever you like, just don't expect everyone else to believe it too.

Then there is the province of Aceh, which is part of Indonesia and looks no different from Afghanistan.The ones who don't follow Sharia like Azerbijan were under communist rule and are ruled by dictators today, basically the countries where Islam is kept away from political power. Then there are countries like Malaysia with 60% Muslim population but Islam has been declared as the state religion and there is are reservations for the majority. There is a big spectrum. Which of these models do you like? .. Which one should India follow? "we don't Force them to covert" - That BS.

Geopolitical environment was very different then. India's position wasn't what it is now, both because of size of Indian Economy and the importance it has gained because of Indo-Pacific strategy. Pakistan, on the other hand, had a much bigger Geopolitical weight because of ongoing War On Terror operations in Afghanistan.

I guess, you need to stop "barking" and learn to be civilised before running around and asking people to "learn" more about the issue, especially since they know more about it that you do.

  839.  @hongqi5734  2000 years??.. You think India has never matched up to China isn't it ??.. Either you have been smoking too much pot or you aren't educated about History. China liberalised in 1978. India liberalised in 1991. That's the gap. That's it.

  840. Firstly, The Print isn't saying anything. The views are of Shyam Saran and The Print is the platform replaying those views. Secondly, if Russia hasn't achieved what it set to achieve then it has lost and the land it has gained means jacksh*t.

  842.  @onamsair1194  "Farmers throwing their produce because they didn't even get breakeven price".. Have you stopped to wonder why that happens ? If your solution to that is a gauranteed MSP extended to all produce (why just have MSP for a few select produce), then you might as well propose selling all Indians to prostitution to fund the MSP. Cause that's what it's going to take.

  843.  @ashharhasan3120  Well, I am not going to "regale" anything cause that would be spoon feeding people who believe the sole theme for Modi to get a majority of Indians to vote for him, not once but twice, was hate (against a community). If you believe that to be the reality then, my friend, you are f**ked. But if you think a majority of Indian population aren't dumb morons, which is the likely case unless one deliberately wants to be intellectually lazy, and that they vote of BJP for rational reasons rather than ideological ones, then I suggest you start using your zealous intellect, if it exists, to explore those reasons.

  846.  @nitinhebbar  "During NDA1 our economic output slowed down. Growth in terms of gdp was the lowest amongst the g20 nation." - Thanks to NPAs, which started peaking in 2011, because of which the credit growth stalled for many years, until IBC was introduced and NPAs were cleared through a painful process. This and multiple other factors lead to slowdown that India witnessed. Only very simple minds belief the narrative that all this happened primarily because of demonetisation, irrespective of the fact that it was a stupidity. "Unlike your biased opinion , I won't discredit Vajpayeeji. He is far better leader than RaGa or modiji." - My opinions aren't biased. They are informed, unlike your superficial ones. And one can compare Vajpayee and Modi to come to conclusions of leadership (I personally like Vajpayee). But why would anyone in their right mind even bring RG into that comparison? .. He hasn't been a leader ever. He has never been a CM or even held a portfolio position. Where does this question of him being a better leader come from, when he has never been a leader at all?

  847.  @weiningding3166  With respect, I get the points you are making and I would like to say the same for all the Chinese forming opinions about India. They don't understand India at all. Btw, I don't think people can't live without religion. I am an Atheist myself. But just like you think there is preconceived notions (which are wrong) that I might have about China, all the comments I hear from Chinese about India are all based on wrong preconceived notions of India. India is a vastly complicated country and the Chinese don't get it at all. That poor understanding of India leads to statements like " India is plagued with religious and racial conflicts." "And the members come from all classes in our society, the majority members actually from regular people working in farms and factories . So far, it has 980,000,00 members, which is 8% Chinese populations." - The same is true for the current ruling party (BJP) of India. 90 Million members as of 2022 with people from various parts of society.

  848. ​ @Hehekk197  Pointing out facts about a religious ideology isn't Bigotry or rhetoric. I absolutely agree with you that there is Bigotry in the present times. But you seem to delusionally believe that there was no bigotry before. History didn't start in 2014. Everything that's happening is a reaction to everything else that has been happening for decades.

  850.  @Hehekk197  "Also what u said wasn't a fact. I dont think any religion teaches to disrespect other ppl." - Mam! .. You need to read and educate yourself. You are either deliberately being naive or purposefully blind. That's your choice. Just don't expect everyone else to be a fool. Some of us have read the Quran and Hadiths. I know what I am talking about. If you like to be educated, read the publicly available world wide Pew survey one Muslim believes. " It is just a word not a derogatory term." - Just like J*had is just a word literally meaning struggle in Arabic, not a call for war. Deliberately being naive or Purposefully blind.

  851.  @Hehekk197  "All I said was it has gotten worse after 2014. Hate politics is afterall bjp's forte" - And all I said was, I don't mind as long as they deliver on economy, which they are.

That's the myth that people who read too much of Thomas Piketty or Jean Deeze believe. That's BS.

  859. "These days, PSU banks have given better return to investors than most of the private sector banks." - That's because NPAs were taken care of and the credit cycle has just started taking off. Market is just recognizing the deep undervaluation. This isn't going to continue forever. The systemic problems that caused the NPAs to shoot up still remain in the PSU banks. If the disinvestment stops, 10 years down the line India will still be dealing with the same problems.

  863. Economics is a two way relation. "They are all dependent on China" just says that China depends on them too. Say countries find an alternative to whatever manufacturing China does (which seems likely now including rare earth metals), China looses it's leverage.

It's like comparing a 5 year old with a 20 year old and saying look how much taller the 20 year old is. Facts are the same, perspectives are different. And I really can't help if someone is stupid enough to conflate assessment of Indian economy and with that of the PM.

  870.  @ezhilarasinanda5750  If you want to be fair, then tell me how can Indian govt. (irrespective of who is in power) pay for what citizens expect of it (roads, vaccines, military, education and health), when govt. is already running a fiscal deficit?? ... The only two options are printing more money (which is inflationary) or collect more taxes (which will cause inflation for consumables but also affect demand generation). Those are the only two options, since govt. doesn't want to borrow from outside. Pick your poison.

  879.  @thetalker9326  "Really?" - Yes. To whichever comment you are referring to. And for you other statements. "The main reason is the work culture and mind set. " - The "culture and mindset" argument is the crappiest when one uses it as an answer to why other countries are doing better than India. Usually, used by people who have exclusively worked/studied in India or people who have exclusively worked outside India, in any one specific country. "We talk a lot, listen less." - That's probably true. But this isn't a problem. The major issue keeping India behind is Economics and the politics which can enable that. Also, please don't compare India with homogeneous countries with much smaller population and different govt. structure. The complexity and scale of India's governance is at another level. Nothing comes even close.

  880.  @naanallamuthu5038  Can't help uninformed politically motivated f*cks who think Bangladesh having a higher per capita GDP than India is a big deal and it means "Bangladesh economy must be better than India's". You can focus on whatever you like, as for me Bangladesh's Economy isn't even in the same league as India. Comparing Bangladesh's Economy with India is like comparing Virat scoring 75 in International Matches and a ranji player which scored a century and saying Virat should now think of beating the Ranji Player. By the same dumb logic Malaysia's Economy is better China's. Don't embarass yourself publiclly. learn some economics before making dumb statements online.

That's the reason you so desperately mention "religion tension", as if there are no tensions within China. You clearly have no clue of what you are talking about.

"And a decent chunk of his borrowings, don't recollect exact number, are from public sector banks. " - 70% of India's banking in with public sector banks. What's your point here? .. If am sure you whine about this but at the same time whine about bank privatization as well.

That must be the reason why people migrate to Karnataka and not the other way round. Sir, your world is very small. And so is your mind. Sreedharan gets it at 88. So, for your to get it there is still probably 50 more years left. Shouldn't expect anything before that.

  892.  @mohd_gani  "In world market when gas (petroleum) price was dropped" - One has to be a special kind of stupid to counter themselves in the same comment. How do you claim they control the Gas/petrol prices while saying "when the prices dropped in the world market." Clearly prices are determined in the world market. And Yes.. when prices dropped in the world market, the tax was increased to keep the prices same cause unlike Ravish, Modi has a brain. Modi knows that reducing the prices is easy but increasing prices later when the prices go up (which they always do) isn't easy. That extra tax was used to fund making of 110 Million Toilets, 4 Cr houses for poor. That's part of the welfare I spoke about earlier. Btw .. Subsidising Petrol by reducing taxes is Anti-poor. The Rich who uses 100 ltrs of petrol everyday gets more subsidy than the poor who uses only 2 ltrs to do Swiggy delivery. Your Journalistic God.. ravish Bhai knows this but he will not tell you cause that distracts from the agenda. Now tell me how are you so uneducated that you lack simple understanding of economics?
    2
  893.  @mohd_gani  "Hey even a small kid can tell you reality" - Which is why Modi gets elected. "We just don't want uneducated pm." - And We want a PM, who uneducated or otherwise, delivers. The obsession with "educated" PM is stupidity. A representative need not be educated. He/She needs to carry the mandate. There are highly educated bureaucrats to advice the representative. That's how the system has been designed. But to have that understanding and not parrot words of NDTV mindlessly one needs to use his/her brain. I have found usually the ones who run around labelling people as bhakts are the ones who display bhakti the most. Whatever Ravish asks .. they don't even stop to think twice.. they then run around say the same thing verbatim. " Who don't even do press conference" - NDTV's words, your mouth. Means very little. This isn't an issue at all. Most people don't care the he doesn't do press conferences. Only NDTV cared about that cause without access they can't twist his words and set the agenda.

  918.  @BharatThatIsIndia  "Modi ji was doing Mujra in this election and now he will do the same for Naidu and Nitish. This is the power of people in Indian democracy." - Talking about Mujra is so Congress Eco-chamber language. When Modi got majority that was the power of people in Indian democracy as well. It's just that you didn't like it. So, it was labelled as "democratic backsliding". I have rarely me such loosers in life who are happy even if they couldn't cross a 100 seats after 10 years of anti-incumbency and because Modi didn't get a majority. When did Congress last get 240 seats? .. Remind me again? Btw, both Nitish and Naidu have a lot less leverage than Congress voters think they do. They will not be able to get Home Ministry, Defense, Finance, Foreign Affairs, for sure. And it's highly unlikely that allies get Railways, Commerce, IT or Telecom. That's where bulk of the work of Modi govt is happening. Naidu will have to take centers assistance to build Amravati while serving as the CM of Andhra and planning for Nara Lokesh's succession. Nitesh can't switch sides like he always does cause, firstly chances of INDI Alliance forming govt is zero and even if they do form a govt. what will Nitesh Kumar get? .. He has 12 seats while TMC has 29, DMK has 22, SP has 37 and Congress has 99. so the Mujra will be from the otherside. "Unemployment is at record high since 2018-19" - Unemployment is a structural issue. It started going up from 2011. And that's happening cause India has not become a significant manufacturing hub like it should have. Modi govt has done more for that transition to happen than Congress could ever have. But facts rarely matter to the average Congress voters. They just parrot what their supreme leader says mindlessly.

I think you know that but you are being a weasel like every Congress Bhakt is.

"Last time when Naidu left NDA, BJP and Modi were in power with the majority." - Except Naidu wasn't in power in Andhra. There is nothing for Naidu to gain by leaving NDA this time. "They can get the same ministry with INDIA which they will get here. " - Except India can't form govt. They will crumble at the question of who will become the PM. "But INDIA should not try to form the government and work like a strong opposition." - Angoor Khatte hain.

On the otherhand, if you see what they do when they can sent armies of armed men, torture citizens, conquer societies etc ... you will see that it's much worse than what "the Evil US has done". Live example would be what Saudi is doing in Yemen or what Iran is doing in Syria. You lack perspective. That's what making you come up with such naive statements.

It's probably cause state didn't intervene enough. Cheap furniture sourced from China one can buy, but cheap medicine. No. Btw, the Housing Crisis also happened because of crazy capitalism. Now, I am sure that Govt. regulation since it's founding days of USA has increased. But the crisis happened cause it didn't increase enough.

  957.  @jkardez4794  "That is a tall order intellectually" - I don't think intellect matters much when it comes to being a tall leader. And People of India (and history) will be the eventual arbiter of whether Modi was a tall leader or not. Individual opinions won't matter. And I didn't say Modiji wants to be like Indiraji. I said he wants his name to be etched in history (which is why he is doing this and other things like renaming Rajpath to kartavyapath ) and Congress, while opposing this, should think of what they have done. You are mixing the two up to draw your own conclusions. I used Indiraji as an example, but they have done the same with Nehruji and Rajivji. Basically, anyone from the family.

  958.  @jkardez4794  "When you say that intellect doesn't matter much for a leader you are being incredible . It is the basic requirement to being a successful human being. Best of luck to any entity without this basic characteristic ." - You are digressing from the topic with every argument. But whatever definition of intellect you use here and claim it as a basic requirement to being a successful human being, should be present in Modiji is amounts comparable to Indiraji, given his success. Note: I can't address delusions which might lead someone to claim Modi, who is a two time PM of India without being from a family of immense political privileged, is less successful than Indira.

  966.  @PomegranateChocolate  Thanks for speaking your mind and bringing up a lot of facts. I will research this and find out more. And I agree Indian Govt. might have set a narrative which makes Indians believe a different version of history than what you point to. But I hope you agree that India hasn't forced Bhutan or Sikkim to change it's culture or extract resources like the colonial power do. Even the Tibetians who came to India maintain their own culture. I can't speak of Bhutan but I have met many people from Sikkim and they don't seem to have any problem with India or being a part of it.
    2
  967.  @PomegranateChocolate  Dude .. You comments are getting seriously delusional and devoid of facts. "The northeast including Manipur, Tripura, Sikkim, South Tibet, Nagaland, were never part of the British Raj. It was invaded and annexed by India after the British have already left." - I don't know where you read you history from, but North East has always been a part of British Ra and was called as NEFT. Even the present day Myanmar(Burma) was a part of British Raj and was ruled under the same administration until 1937 when it was separated from British India into a separately administered colony until 1948. This idea of India "annexing" NorthEastern States after the British left is a delusion. It never happened. India, since it's independence in 1947 has always maintained and claimed territory that were inherited from British India. No less. No more. On the otherhand, RoC and PRC claim parts of British India, because they believed Tibet was part of China (which it wasn't). Infact, PRC(/RoC) was much bigger than in 1950 as compared to 1913. Add to that the claims on South China Sea and funding economically dud projects and taking them over (E.g hambantota) .So, I would say China is expansionist. "This is obviously a political hack job. Not a single Muslim country raises any concern about Xinjiang" - Not even a single Muslim Country?? .. Ever heard of Turkey? Do you know why Turkey cut the water supply to the Chinese Embassy only some days back? What's East Tukstan ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/East_Turkestan ) ?..Find out for yourself or live in delusion calling everything a Western Propaganda. That's up to you. "That place wasn't even called AP at that time. In the later years, it was called NEFA (Northeast Frontier Agency) by the British Raj" - Yes, it was called NEFA (previously NEFT and always a part of British Raj), but not just Arunanchal Pradesh. It included Assam, Nagaland and many other states, which were separated out of NEFA and made into states later. One of the states was named Aruanchal Pradesh. None of this means it wasn't a part of British Raj. "Shimla convention has no legal standing because it was a tripartite convention (the British, Tibetan and China) and China didn't sign it. " - China didn't sign it because negotiations failed between China and Tibet, not because China had a problem with the British & Tibetan arrangement (This is documented). So, the British & Tibet signed a bilateral agreement. China now uses it to assert claims which it never had. " The so-called McMahon line is a diplomatic forgery that was added on it decades later. The real original treaty of the Shimla treaty without the McMahon line still survives in the Oxford library. " - Not really. It way more complicated than that. And the original treaty does include the McMahon line. I don't think we can agree on much of this especially if Chinese Diplomats and Indian Diplomats have failed to agree for 70 years. You can believe what you want and I will do the same. So, let's not waste each other's time. The only difference between me and you is that I accept there was insurgency(funded by China) in India and the Indian govt. brutally crushed it. You can't even bring yourself to admit what China has done to Tibetans and is doing to Ughyurs in Xinjiang. You are brushing it off as western propaganda. Anyway, this is something may want to see (though it's not specifically related to the topic): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-sXE-S_pWUQ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jv0JT9FuEQI It was a good conversation.

    2
  975.  @PseudoProphet  Yes they did. And they were proved wrong because of multiple reasons. Not even one of those reasons hold true for Yogi. The only reason why people even consider him as a possible face is because he is the CM of UP, which has 80 Loksabha seats. But that's not a good enough reason to say Yogi has a chance.
    2
  976.  @PseudoProphet  None of those reasons are good enough for people of India (not UP) to make him the PM. "He can easily be the next PM." - His blind followers would say that. Modi said I have developed Gujarat. Make me the PM and I will apply the Gujarat's development model through out India.What's Yogi's story? .. I will carry out encounter killings through India just like I did in UP? .. I hope you know security isn't an issue people relate with through out India. That is a UP specific problem.

That's why they are opposing this bill. It was expected.

This has coincided with Biden coming to power. I am pretty sure in 2024, Modi will ask for votes by pointing towards development.

Shameless politicians like Siddharamaya and Shiv Kumar use the taxes I pay to fund their freebie politics to come to power. It's also important to ask how much tax does Karnataka State take from Bangalore and how much of it comes back to Bangalore? ..

I hope you see the excercise that you are putting effort into is the former, not the later, while it should be the later.

  1007.  @ravinakuwar1407  My guess is, bigfisher guy is a BJP hating Malayali, who at this point is unable to differentiate between his hate for BJP from his hate for Indians. He would much rather make up narratives about India to show it in bad light, even if it's not true, as long as it looks like BJP did a bad job.
    2
  1008.  @bigfigher  "Unfortunately when the going was tough for us, our leaders disappeared and not seen outside unlike most of the other countries. " - I got your perspective. But I disagree with the assessment and from what I know most countries think India handled the situation fairly well, given India's per capita GDP and India Health Care System, which can't be upgraded overnight.
    2
  1009.  @bigfigher  "My understading is that most of the countries thought exactly opposite." - I think you have made that pretty clear. "Many internatioal medias even wrote 'where is indian govt'. " - Quoting international media isn't a very smart gesture. They have a habit of showing India in a bad light to divert attention from the failures of their own governments. "India's healthcare system is not that bad. States like kerala handled the situation much much better" - Kerala has a very high HDI and it's healthcare is much better than other states. But when you were talking about 'floating bodies' you were referring UP. You can't paint all over India with the same brush. But it's an undeniable fact that Indian healthcare system is much less equipped as compared to all the other countries and the their media houses you are mentioning. "why Modi did not address the country when it was going though one of the worst periods in its entire history. " - How is this a requirement? .. How would the PM addressing the country have made difference in medical handling of the situation? "On the contracy, Biristh, American, French, German, Italian leaders... all of them addressed people through media on daily basis when the they face the worst of worst." - Firstly, why compare India with countries with 25x of India's per capita GDP? .. And how does it matter if they addressed the people? .. They didn't do very well in handling the situation. I lived in UK until very recently and my sister lives in Canada. I am speaking from personal experience. Not sure why are you glorifying the activity of 'addressing people'. As if that saves lifes more than vaccinating people, which is what India did.

  1026.  @Rajeshrranu  " no country in the world right now following entirely capitalist model." - Offcourse not. It's about the right blend and India is way too socialist for it's own good. "See the telecome sector, now there is only 2 companies. " - Telecom is a heavy investment industry and after consolidation usually 2 or 3 companies remain. That's the case in every country. You can check it out. Moreover, VI is dying because of retrospective taxes levied due to Pranab Mukherjee's stupidity. It has nothing to do with privatization. "For outgoing the rate keeps going up. Where is competition? " - Sir, all telecom companies are making losses at current rates and India's data prices are cheapest in the world. So, I am not really sure why you have this concern. "Why the profit making assets are being sold out?" - Why not?? .. Should we wait till they start making losses so that we can then sell them at scrap prices?? I am being a citizen but that doesn't mean I showed oppose everything that the govt. does. And I doubt that I can be SG's bhakt. My understanding of Economics is far better than his. But he has a platform and a following who he can explain things as simply as possible. So, I am happy about that.

And we certainly don't think Capitalism in the way it is practiced in the US is something to aspire for. Extreme relentless capitalism is what lead to the Housing Bubble. So, please don't tell that we have to "learn" what capitalism means. That statement is stupid and arrogant. And 30% of our banks are in the private sector and the mix is changing rapidly. But we will never have the entire banking sector completely in private sector. Govt. will always maintain a presence in the banking sector.

It doesn't seem like you know much about China or India, for that matter.

  1045.  @pauliewalnuts6734  "The quality of the infrastructure" - You know that quality can change right? "the severe class divide, surrounded by 4 enemy states" - These are true for China as well. And I don't know where you learnt to count but no matter how I count it, I can't find 4 enemy states surrounding India. But however you count it I am sure by the same criteria China has higher number of enemy states.
    2
  1046.  @gytx5339  "India's economy was bigger than that of China back in 1987 or 88. What happened afterwards? " - China liberalised it's economy in 1978. India did it 18 years later in 1991. That's what happened. India's economy is exactly where China's economy was 15 years back. The narrative that China grew faster cause Chinese are more industrious is as crappy as it gets. Indians are just as industrious China grew faster cause they can carry out reforms quiet easily. In India it takes ages to get the right reforms done. The opposition to recent Farm reforms is the best example.

  1056. India has never ignored population control. It went to such heights that during the emergency doctors were given quotas for vasectomy and when they couldn't find enough people they would get the police to pick random people up from the streets. In other more civilised times, there were various schemes to help with population control as well. It's a well-accepted phenomena that the only thing that leads to population control is women empowerment, which is something that is closely tied with the economy of a country. It's not very smart to think population control is what leads to better economy either. India's population growth is below the replacement rate now and China which artificially controlled the population through policy is only starting to pay the heavy price that it will continue to pay for some decades now. And the proportion of overseas diaspora is directly proportional to two things, (1) The disparity in Wealth distribution between two nations (which wasn't because of nations failures) and (2) the Success of a Nation in educating it's people enough so as to be capable of finding jobs or running businesses in more advanced economies. What Indians take pride in is not that some many people went abroad, but that for whatever reasons they had to go abroad, given the system there they are doing well. Way better than other communities. You seem to be conflating different but closely related issues.

India, as a matter of policy, doesn't use the military on foreign soil after having learnt from Sri Lankan Civil War. Use of military against civilian population, whether they are drug lords or extremists and whether it done with the permission of local government, always leads to resentment among people. India might agree to train Maldivian soldiers but it will never take military action even if Maldivian government asks it to do so.

  1087.  @jmchng9662  I didn't say the reasons are "too many". I said there were too many assumptions in the reasons you gave. Like for example the dumb assumption that a country needs to have one language of communication (or national language) to have any kind of success. You seriously need to work on your English Comprehension and stop looking at everything with a Chinese Framework. That's the dumbest thing one can do. "And which one of them you want to say I am wrong?" - On all accounts.

  1089.  @jmchng9662  "From where I come from, is irrelevant." - Still confirm if I am right. "Every nation must has its own national language. Why? To unite its own people. " - That's an unsubstantiated claim. And you believe it because of your very limited understanding of what a nation or nationalism is. It's not required for people to speak one language at all. And it's a bad idea to have a national language when everyone speaks so many different language. " What matters here is whether we are saying the truth or lying. " - No. What matters is whether the arguments made towards a conclusion are relevant and can be factually verified. Saying Indians are "loud mouths", isn't a fact. It's an opinion of a racist chinese. "So now can you tell me which one of my 3 statements (about India) is a lie? " - I never said you lied. I said you "assumed too much and you have too little understanding". Not sure why you aren't able to comprehend this. Your first statement is a fact, however it's irrelevant. A country doesn't need one language to succeed. Your second statement is a partial fact and show how less your really understand the caste system. And third statement is not even a fact. It's just an observation stemming from perception of racial superiority. I can say Chinese are hierarchical robots with 2 inch d*cks, but that's just an observation. It means nothing and can't be used as an objective fact.

  1090.  @jmchng9662  "And yet Indians love to boast having the largest democracy in the world. " - I don't understand what else to call it. People from all castes vote, people from all castes get elected and government doesn't discriminate based on caste. Can you explain why do you think a caste system negates democracy? "care to explain how it works? Why one caste level is so much higher than the rest? " - Difficult to give a comprehensive understanding on youtube comments. But imagine that it's an ancient Hindu society practice something similar to China's Hukou system. Caste system is largely irrelevant except when it comes to politics.

What does that tell you??.. Ranking change and it doesn't take very long to do it. I am not sure when will people realise that present is not the predictor of future and it's really stupid to judge what is potentially going to happen in the future by looking at current stats. The gap between A&Z isn't as big as people from A believe. Can be breached in 15 years or so.

  1093.  @jmchng9662  IIT is not an university, it's a technical College and we were talking about Times ranking, not QS rankings. Why can't your brain comprehend simple stuff ? Even then my point stands, if there are 5 Chinese Universities in the ranking today in 2008 there was just one. What does that tell you ? Stop playing stat games. The simple fact is, just like Chinese Universities have made their way on rankings so can other universities, not just from India but from all countries. Why does your brain hurt to understand simple logic ?

  1094.  @jmchng9662  The Chinese don't realise that in 2005, their economy was exactly where Indian economy is today (except Indian demographics are better). China built it's first bullet train around the same time, India is doing it today. The gap between the two is that of 15 to 20 years. That's it. Not 50 years like some morons believe. I don't understand why does it hurt the Chinese brain to get this simple fact through their head. They keep comparing the current China with India and shagging over it. Supreme stupidity. Also the belief that China did something special is stupid. Korea did the same before China. Japan did the same before Korea. Many other Asian economies went through the same cycle of agriculture to manufacturing to services. Stop thinking you are special. And stop giving reasons why others can't do what you have done. Stupidity is mind boggling. Get some education in "top" Chinese University to reduce the stupidity.

  1095.  @jmchng9662  So one university from China at 50th rank??.. I think I have made my point. Someone with a little brain would have got it by now. Someone wise once said.. don't argue with stupid people. They will bring you down to their level and beat you with experience. You remind me of this quote. P.S: If most Chinese are of your level of comprehension when it comes to simple arguments then I don't think Indians have much to worry about. We will do fairly well.

Here he is giving his rationale for not putting his own money into startups. You may agree or disagree with him, like many successful investors also do, but it's his money and his decision whether he finds it attractive to invest in startups. As for mainstream media covering startups, they absolutely do, but in specialised segments. Expectation that a business channel aimed at retail investors, who can and do invest only through the share market, would cover startups is misplaced especially when there are no instruments to make it possible for retail investors to invest in startups in the first place. It's like asking why do sports channel only comment on Cricket and not chess, since that's sports as well.

There are many others with similar numbers. People choose whatever numbers that align more closely with their own views. "on what data are you basing the 6.5% growth rate for a decade ? " - That is my own assessment based on raw data and the structure of the current Indian economy. As the Ukraine War ends (whenever that is), Fed starts reversing the interest rates (there are already signs of that happening soon.), Indian ecosystem is structurally ready to push the accelerator and grow at even 9% for a few quarters or even years. This structure isn't going to change for the next decade, unless of course, something unforeseeable happens, like War with China. Btw, I am being conservative when I say 6.5% growth for a decade. Also, anyone who went to Davos would know what I am talking about.

This couldn't be further from the truth. "it's very much likely, shenzen is silicon valley of hardware in the world already" - You see how you refer to shenzhen as the Silicon Valley? .. That's cause the actual Silicon valley lies somewhere else. And it's expected for China to do well in Hardware especially since they were a manufacturing hub for so long.

  1184. @farhancharkha52  He is fighting for power . Anyone who thinks otherwise is naive and down right stupid*d. And he didn't win 99 seats because he walked from Kanyakumari to Kashmir . If "walks" could win elections, Modi would be walking all the time🤣. The walk increases his respect within the party. That's it. The 99 seats that Congress for they got it because Dalit votes in UP shifted to SP and some to Congress AND Maharashtra seats reduced because of infighting. Price charming had nothing to do with getting 99 seats. And yes, BJP kept fighting but they are an ideological party. Congress is NOT. It borrows ideology from the communists mainly. Borrowed conviction doesn't last long. In the top of that, India is a young aspirational country and Prince charming is selling despair. Listen to Shashi Tharoor's speech in Gujrat AICC. He knows exactly what the problem is BUT sadly no one would listen what he has to say.

They have a very caricatured view of India. I don't think one should take any of them seriously.

"Again, repeating the request - if you know the answer - please list out the prosperities." - Can't answer the question without you first telling me what you mean by "prosperities". Different people have different things in minds when they use the word. I can list out economic policies that were implemented under Modi govt. that I like. But that wouldn't help someone who doesn't know much about economic policies.
    1
  1188.  @Tup7kSh7kur  2014-19 (Term- I): 1. Implementation of GST (Congress talked about it for 15+ years, but it was finally implemented by Modi govt. cause Modi gave a revenue guarantee to states, which was a huge political risk that Congress didn't have the guts to take.) 2. Deregulation of Diesel Prices (Before this Diesel Prices weren't determined by the markets) 3. Opening Coal Mining Sector (Ended Coal India Monopoly and brought down coal mining costs) 4. IBC (Improved Bankruptcy Process and was a major help in cleaning the NPA accumulated during UPA) Execution: 1. Direct Benefit Transfer (Plugged leakages and lead to efficient delivery of social welfare) on UPI 2. Layed 1 lac+ kms of optical fibres under BharatNet Program 3. Provision of Toilets (Near 100% delivery) and Gas connection to the poorest 4. Sewage treatment and Urban Waste Treatment went from 15% to 80%+ in the last 10 years. 5. Expressways, Railways (Vande Bharat, electrification etc), Border Roads and important passes, Bhogibil Bridge and other important infra. Even BJP's opposition can't deny this. 6. Electificity provision, Nal Se jal and Awas Yojana have made great progress 7. FTA with Australia, UAE etc 2019-2024(Term-II): 1. Air India Privatisation 2. Ending Retroactive Taxation (A gift to Indian Economy from UPA. Being sarcastic here) 3. 50%+ FDI in Insurance and Defense 4. Opening Mapping to private players (Before this only Survey of India had the Authority to Map India, Google Map was technically illegal and only 15% of India is Mapped. That is changing) and Space Sector to private players (This was done immediately after Galwan Crash when Sat. images came from private companies in the west. Today we have Agnikul and Pixxel because of this reform) 6. Labour Reforms (One of the main reasons why labour intensive manufacturing doesn't happen in India) 7. Good Progress has been made on privatising Discoms. Very important for viability of power sector. 8. PM Gati shakti is an epic reform in logistics. I have mentioned reforms which were highly consequential and very difficult to implement. There are a lot of other reforms as well. Not mentioning the work that has been done in getting manufacturing into India. There is some epic work going on that will change the way MSME lending happens. This will boost economy and be a significant change.

  1189.  @moloyknight  "So what kinda growth are you talking about?" - Economy is not just about growth, it's also about quality of growth and stability. India grew fast enough after 2008 but economy wasn't managed properly. So the growth was accompanied by a double digit inflation from 2011 to 2014 and NPAs that lead to the twin balance sheet problem. The first term of NDA went into cleaning the cr*p that UPA-II spread. "And remember jobless growth is really dangerous. " - Such a thin is an impossibility. It's great for political rhetoric. "The lower class income is still stagnant but the prices have gone up considerably" - The real incomes have not gone up. That means income have gone up but they have been equal to the price rise due to inflation. What you are saying is a very different thing.

  1194.  @shelldie8523  That's what I find funny though, that people, even though they know that agriculture employs 70% of India's population, believe that Modi & BJP have implemented a law that will upset 70% of their potential voters just to make 2 rich individuals richer. How drugged does one have to be to believe that?? ... And you think a party which has been described by an 'electoral machine' by it's opponents doesn't know this, but you do??? 😃 . .. I honestly don't know what to say to that. And Yes, their demand to repeal all three laws & a garaunteed MSP is absurd. As for the "inputs" that you are talking about, that they have been giving for 18 years (all very well documented). They also have "inputs" during the various rounds of talks. But no resolution can be reached when they don't want the middle ground. What they want is total repeal, which as I have said before is an absurd demand.

  1197. Not really. Cause the producers of these products won't be able to increase prices and pass it on to consumers immediately.

That's that led govt to be cautious with their wheat export claims and ban it and even this year with flooding in western UP and lack of rain in eastern UP and Bihar, the numbers aren't looking good." - Dude, the rice that we have is still 3x and wheat is still 1.5x of the stipulated required amount. If someone describes that situation as "dwindling" just because it's down from it's high, I don't know what to say. It's like people saying, India's foreign reserves have be dwindling and the situation is bad. "Going by that you'd assume that all the paddy produced by Punjab and Haryana is just left in FCI godowns and is never required by other parts of India." - Yup, that's exactly what happens. FCI gowdowns store as much as 300% more than required stipulated amount in godowns after the PDS distribution. Many times the grains get spoilt and are then sold to alcohol manufacturers. There is no escaping the fact that Punjab and Harayana produce paddy in excess of what is required by India. Agricultural economists have been writing about this for more than a decade.

  1228.  @harshakumar104  " India is definitely not as tolerant as many western democracies, which should be the benchmark" - Who decided that should be the benchmark? It's stupidity to have western countries as benchmarks. Those countries have settled their identity question (after having killed each other through two wars) and hence can afford to be liberal. Only in 1990s where the identity question wasn't settled in Ireland, they were "the troubles" during which IRA bombed the British regularly. No "tolerance" was found there. And now when Syrian refugees have found their way to Europe and are threatening the European identity and their way of life, all the "liberalism" is evaporating and we see right wing governments coming to power everywhere. People who advocate for Western standards of tolerance India are advocating for their own extinction. You can play that game all you like, many of us aren't taking part in that stupidity.

  1258.  @mohamedhabib8460  This is a digression from the initial discussion. But I will engage. Your believes and demands only work in an utopian idealist world, NOT practically. Also, what's with putting every responsibility on the government?? ... Why is there no talk about the responsibilities of the Citizens? .. "US and MOST of the First World provide enormous information to the Public and the Press educate the People immediately. " - They don't educate their citizens. they put out information for citizens who are "interested" to find information that's required. No government on the face of this earth has been able to "educate" their citizens to be able to support the right policy. If what you say was true, Brexit would never have happened. Or people of Germany would never have opposed nuclear power generation. India puts out enough data (less than developed nations with better resources, but enough) to support some of the most obvious policies. Interested citizens can go through it and support policies like Farm Bills, for example. Does that happen though? .. Nope. Citizens are like spoilt entitled children who believe all they will do is put a vote once every 5 years and crib rest of the time. They will not take time to understand the country's limitations. They protest when there vested interest gets harmed. In an ideal democracy like the one you are describing, Citizens are equally responsible for the democracy to function the way you want it to function. "IF this is ignored or neglected, then you pave the way for Autocracy of the type of Putin, MBS, Xi " - Life of an average citizen is better in each of those countries when compared to many "democracies". Democracy is over-rated. And the proponents of it are ideologues. They support it cause they "believe" it's better. Whether it actually is better or not, is arguable.

  1259.  @mohamedhabib8460  "I guess we both belong to Totally Opposite Ends of the Spectrum of our Views of the World. Maybe, our Life Experience, Education & Perception of Life are all quite different and opposite." - I agree. "So, I refuse to engage with you further" - Should be all the more reason to engage. Just pointing out some facts: 1. "Brexit and Germany going Non-Nuclear Energy had overwhelming Public Support. Whether it is right or wrong, we don't know as yet." - Brexit didn't have overwhelming public support. The vote was very close. Germany going Non-nuclear has already been proved wrong. It resulted in Ukraine's invasion by Russia. Opinion: Just because something has overwhelming public support, doesn't mean it should be done. In India if you ask the public whether India should bomb Pakistan, I am sure there will be overwhelming public support. Doesn't mean that it should be done. Public is usually dumb. 3. "I charge that current Modi Junta does not know HOW to pass a Legislation via Committee Meetings and Public Views on the matter on hand." - We can agree on that too. For Farm bills - There was no public opinion until protests started. And there was so much of vested interest that no amount of "consultation" would result in any different result. "Now, Covid came and ravaged our Economy, even though my State Tamil Nadu posted the best economic growth of 14.8% nominal in 2021, which makes it No. 1 State in the Union on Per Capita State GDP. " - Not sure how pointing this data out had anything do to with the discussion.

  1260.  @mohamedhabib8460  "I will NEVER dare to think or say unless I belong to the Most Arrogant Upper Class Aristocracy!" - Or if you are an ideologue who refuses to look at data. You clearly are the latter who starts an argument with "I believe", as if that's supposed to change the reality. Through out the conversation you have judged me by single statements by assuming a ton of things about me. That speaks volumes. Yeah! .. I think I should cease to engage as well. I have wasted too much time engaging with an ideologue anyway! .. Bye.

  1261.  @rameshg2717  "so why stopped so suddenly? So, why supreme court stopped it?? So, why did government itself offer to stop the implementation of farm laws for one year?? " - The irony is, only someone who doesn't understand politics would ask that, but someone who doesn't understand politics would also never understand the answer. "This government brings electoral bonds, keeping at away from RTI." - Something which was supported by the opposition, Congress in Particular. Find out why. "Previous government brought in RTI act which gave much needed transparent process." - I doubt someone who doesn't support the farm laws understands what's much needed. "Ur right in a way, Cows are atleast living happier than wild life in our country." - This is a testament to your shallow knowledge. Both Milk and Beef production in India is Buffalo based. Beef ban would have made buffaloes happier, not Cows. Cows lives have remained unchanged even after BJP coming to power😊 .. You would know that had you bothered to learn something about India rather than falling prey to the political rhetoric, where Cow, Cow dung, Cow Piss etc find their way consistently.

  1274. " And they were cheated of Kashmir, let alone Delhi which was Muslim capital for 1000 years." - Make such statements and then ask why are Muslims forced to prove their loyalty towards India at every step. Say that you are Muslim first and then Indian, then ask why are Muslims forced to prove their loyalty. Say that you won't say "Vande Mataram" by issuing a Fatwa, then ask why are Muslims forced to prove their loyalty. Stand with the Ummah to support terrorists, call fellow Indians "Kafirs", don't give up even the holiest Hindu worship places (while Mecca doesn't allow any non-Muslims) and then keep asking why are Muslims forced to prove their loyalty. If Hindus/RSS/Hindu Mahasabha really had the power that you delusionally claim that they had, they wouldn't have divided Muslim population into 3 parts, they would have divided India into 2 parts, forced every one of you to leave and declared India a country for Indic religions.

  1275.  @gabbar51ngh  First, I am for the farm laws. Second, NZ doesn't have enough farmers. It's giving away lands for free to people who want to farm. Third, Free Markets alone won't be able to take care of the problem. Agriculture is subsided in almost every country & India will have to do it as well but the type of subsidy will be different. However, it's Stupidity to compare India with developed nations. In developed economies subsidies work bcs only 2% or so of the population depend on agriculture unlike India where 55% depend on it.
    1
  1276.  @gabbar51ngh  55% depend in it bcs there isn't a manufacturing sector to absorb them. That's the primary reason. Not saying that it isn't a burden on tax payers but when the relative size of population dependant on any subsidy becomes much smaller as compared to the size of population which bears the burden then subsidies aren't a problem. I am saying we have to subsidize agriculture just based on pure economics. Literally every country does it. They have to because agriculture is a low value produce. As inflation pushes the cost of living in a country higher eventually no amount of volume produced in Agriculture, irrespective of whether or not the country is a net exporter, is enough to make it sustainable. Hence the subsidy. Free Markets aren't going to solve the problem. They can't. But India has a long way to go before we even start having this conversation. For now, India needs the Farm Bills.

  1277.  @SikhSaakhi  Sorry Sir! .. But what you say is what happens in theory. Mine is backed economic data. I don't really read newspaper articles on the issue. I read economic reports. Economic reports aren't "textbooks". They are policy suggestions based on data collected from the ground. They provide a larger perspective which one would lack when their experience would be state specific. The huge gap between what the end consumer pays vs what farmers get is because of lack of price stabilization and huge inefficiencies in the supply chain. MSP isn't going to solve that, MSP will create the same inefficiencies for every crop that's MSP linked. If the reforms are difficult now, they will be impossible later. And Political Will?? .. Farm Bills need Political Will. Not the implementation of MSP. That is easy to do but that would also mean killing India's economic future. A legally binding MSP is an unfair ask and should never ever be implemented.
    1
  1278.  @jishrayto4817  That's not specific enough. Also, specific which crops should have MSP and which crops shouldn't. Who should decide the MSP? And will MSP apply to private procurement as well ?
    1
  1279.  @jishrayto4817  My point is, the questions I asked need to be answered along with the demand for gauranteed MSP. Only then one can judge if the demand is partially insane or sign of complete derangement.

  1280. It's not just Saudi. If you look at Japan or South Korea or other more homogeneous societies who are non-western (even though SK and Japan might be considered Western in Values) they defend their culture and also the values fiercely. No one questions them either. Those high standards of "tolerance" are only expected of off European Countries and other Western Countries like Australia, Canada etc. And I think that's partly because of what these countries profess. They themselves don't know where to draw the line between tolerance and exploitation. But then they go around the world advocating for the same.

  1300.  @techybro1141  It just means the news platform covers all the opinions across the spectrum on a topic and doesn't serve one ideological master. It doesn't ignore facts & news contrary to a certain narrative. It's interviewers don't try to coerce guests into saying something that goes well with their own narrative. Individual biases might, however, remain. That's personal opinion and a person can't be completely objective while reporting.

Finance & Movie industry is based in Mumbai. Automobile is primarily based in Tamil Nadu. Industries are moving everywhere but to WB. The simple reason for that is other states have created business friendly environment, WB has not. So what has WB done??.. It has argued and blamed everyone else, just like you are doing now.

  1369.  @parvadhami980  I would say that thinking about staying back in India cause you want to 'serve India', isn't the right way of thinking about it. You need to go where ever you can reach your full potential, that maybe within India or outside of it. It doesn't matter whether you stay or migrate abroad, cause it benefits India either way. And one can always migrate back. Creating artificial mental barriers because of pre-conceived notion of what it means to serve India, ends up destroying the potential that would have otherwise been achieved. Also, the people who chest thump by pointing at people like Sundar Pichai and Abhijit Banerjee to show how talented Indians are and how they would have done wonders for India if they had stayed back are the morons who don't understand the simple fact that they achieved what they did because the went abroad and had to compete with the best in the world in the first place. If they had stayed back, these chest thumpers would never have known about them cause they wouldn't have been able to do what they did. These are the same morons who, without even the basic understanding of Economics, think boycotting all Chinese products is a great idea. Their stupidity knows no bounds.

  1378.  @saif9765  There are plenty of other real issues that opposition can take up rather than taking up an issue which would slowdown the defence acquisition, which is already lagging behind. India can't afford to play politics with defence acquisition anymore. BJP has legal ways of making money like Electoral Bonds. It doesn't need to run defence acquisition scams.
    1
  1379.  @saif9765  "as I said as long as media is biased " - Yes, Media is Biased. There is pro-govt. Media and there is Anti-govt. media. Anti-govt. Media like NDTV, The Wire, The Quint, Scoll, Caravan and Endless others could have taken it up. It's not like govt. controls all media. "if there is suspicion the issue must be taken up because in the name of fast defence acquisition further corruption " - Fist of all, there is always suspicion. Why? .. Because the general public don't really understand how the process works and they have a general mistrust of govt. officials. Opposition parties (including BJP when it was in opposition) exploit this instinct. The recent Farm Laws & Privatisation of PSUs are the best examples of this. And to facilitate quicker defence procurement which is extremely important now, a different mechanism is being devised so that procurment doesn't slow down because of politics. "Suspicion" on defense procurements is a luxury India can't afford anymore. You first need to make sure you have a sovereign country before you try to be "suspicious" of it.

  1380.  @saif9765  Yeah.. I was wondering when your bias against the present govt. was going to reflect in the comments. Just goes to show that you aren't objective in your assessment. You desperately want to believe there must be kickbacks in the defence deal. The video like I sent is you Shivshankar Menon who was the National Security advisor under Congress. Hope that is enough to help you see the reality. And Ravish isn't the unbiased journalist that you believe him to be. And Every Indian govt. before had their cronies and interfered with the courts (degree of interference might be different).

  1381.  @saif9765  "media is called the 4th pillar because it keeps a check on the power and opposition is powerless.its the govt which holds power." - Absolutely. But the business model of media is broken. It's very easy to control the media just by throwing some ad money at them. It's the same in America. " I remember how the CAG in UPA govt made false allegations regarding 2g scam which ultimately brought down the govt ." - Exactly. That's the sad truth of Indian Politics. If you actually get to understand the issue you will see that the opposition takes up banal issues and tries to change public's perception to gain power. BJP opposing FDI in Retail was bullshit. And so was the Anna movement. And more recently the Farmer's protest. All political bullshit. The point I am making is, the nature of Indian politics is such that very little gets done. India can't afford it anymore. India needs to move at a fast pasce in Economic Reforms, Defense procurment, Bureaucratic reforms etc. "And one more thing India's capital expenditure on defence has been going down in the last 5 years" - That's true. And the cost of pensions is larger than salaries of active personel. As for govt. marketing, that's what this govt. does. Ignoring all that, the question that needs to be asked " Is there an existential threat to India and it's interests?" - And the answer to that unequivocally is YES. You need to listen to the strategic community to understand how bad the situation is, especially since last year when China killed Indian soldiers. And I am not talking about short-term situation like disengagement and stuff. I am talking long term.

  1383.  @saif9765  "if money was a factor for controlling media then who can offer more money tha bjp !!! " - You say this as if this has been historically true. Congress has always had more money than BJP before 2014. They controlled the media before. The 4th Pillar you are talking about never existed even then. I don't know why the skies are falling only now. The fact is, BJP was a formidable opposition. Media couldn't avoid them even if they wanted to. Congress on the other hand is doing nothing. BJP made people of Bihar walk for 1000 kms and then went on to win elections in Bihar. BJP keeps giving Congress real issues on a platter, Congress sleeps on them and expects media to do the work they are supposed to do. More over, AAP, AIMIM are holding their ground even with a sold out media. How is that happening??
    1
  1384.  @saif9765  " But there is nothing like existential threat because both India and China are nuclear powers" - That's where you are wrong. Nuclear is just an insurance that the country won't be annihilated. It doesn't garauntee anything else. If China forces you to take a deicision against your interest then you have lost you sovereignty. That is the existential threat. "As far as I understand on external security question both parties are good, it's just that bjp publicises more and us more jingoistic." - I don't disagree with this but you need to forget BJP v/s Congress and look at the geo-political situation building in Asia. That's why I sent you the link of the video of ShivShankar Menon. He isn't a BJP guy.
    1
  1385.  @saif9765  "India needs to strengthen its Economy to become a formidable force against china because war would harly happen due to deterrence" - No disagreements there. But the fact is Congress isn't going to do what is required to bring growth primarily because it can't get the parliamentary majority to take though decisions. The recent Farm Reforms are the best example. "and bjp is anti-thesis to economy." - I can understand why you would say that but that's a perception problem due to a very superficial understanding of Economics and the state of Indian Economy. I can elaborate on this if you want me to. "many prominent journalists have resigned and sedition charges have been thrown upon them like flowers." - No disagreements their either. The thing is BJP is doing it to a higher degree but Congress did the same. Congress used sedition as well, which is why even after 60 years of rule, "a party which believes in democratic values" as you put, couldn't bring itself to remove it.
    1
  1386.  @saif9765  "in my opinion if congress believed in controlling media Anna movement would have never become so big" - Anna movement was propped up and managed at the ground level by BJP. As I said, BJP was a formidable opposition. Media couldn't avoid it even if it wanted to. "Nirbhaya reporting and contrast it with hathras reporting" - A gang rape of a Delhilite youngster who urban people with voice could relate to v/s a dalit women in a village when UP is ruled by a Thakur. Can't even compare these dude. "no one can deny the fact that congress is a party which believes in democratic values" - That can be easily denied. Congress doesn't even have democracy within itself. It has a high-command culture and is ruled by a single family. democratic values are well and good as long as it serves the family. The recent issues between G23 and Gandhi Family just goes to show that. It was under Congress rule that 1984 Anti-Sikh riots took place. It was the Congress which helped LTTE. I see no difference bet. BJP and Congress. For me it's a Choice between two Evils. I make my choice based on who is going to take though policy decisions that India needs. That's it.

I don't disagree. But the rise of religious extremism in India is blown out of proportions by orders of magnitude and so is it's potential implication on the Indian Growth Story. It's implications are close to nothing.

  1401. "In fact, many a times, the price of a food item is listed higher than the in-person dining menu" - That's always true actually. The price displayed on Zomato or swiggy includes the charges zomato levies on the restaurants. "I have personally stopped ordering through them since past couple of months due to all these reasons. I am sure majority of the people would have a similar view." - This is something that I don't agree with. As discretionary spending power in India increases people won't care paying delivery charges cause the food prices will go so high that delivery will only be a small percentage of the order. We are already moving towards that. In UK for example, average meal value is 8 GBP and delivery (without surge) is less that 2 GBP. Zomato and swiggy are here to stay. But I don't agree with Akshat's comparison. The businesses aren't comparable with Jubilant Foodworks.

It irks the hell out of the hierarchically thinking Chinese that India won't bend to it's will. India isn't competing with anyone, but itself. It's the Chinese who thinks it's a competition where one has to win and the other has to loose. It's a mindset problem.

  1416.  @ZweiZwolf  "If India had a billion basic factory jobs and Indians had enough education to safely operate machinery, there could be an economic dividend. " - Those basic factory jobs have started to appear, especially in toy and mobile manufacturing. As more FTAs are signed, Infra and port turn around times improve (which have improved significantly already), more of these basic factory jobs will be created. Electricity production, which was a problem earlier has been remedied already. Labour laws have been reformed centrally and need to be implemented at state level. As BJP wins 2024, which it will, other reforms like Land acquisition bill will be addressed. It's a mistake to assume India doesn't manufacture anything. India manufactures and exports automobiles, auto ancillaries, pharma, specialty chemical and man made fibers already. But the manufacturing is in capital intensive sectors, not labour intensive sectors. As the problems I previously mentioned are remedied low end labour manufacturing, which don't need patent or special tech, can happen in India. That will take care of the jobs issue.

What kind of a stupid expectation is that? Whatever facts you pointed to are all true but are cherry picked with the purpose of showing that your opinion is a foregone conclusion. That's hardly the case. "Chinese export growth is going to squeeze India hard where they compete" - Not if China doesn't have the market access that India has. "Last year, India exported 750B worth of product, whereas Vietnam exported 370B worth" - India's exports are up from 650B where it was stuck for a decade. That's called change in trend. You seem to be obsessed with current numbers while making the dumb prediction of 'India has no future'. Vietnam has been working on it's exporting game for quiet sometime. Almost 15 years now. Why shouldn't it have more exports and higher per capita than India? .. Singapore has higher per capita than China and that is going to remain the case of foreseeable future. Do you Chinese shit your pants you hear that?! .. Btw, China's BRI has a long way to go. Italy pulled out of it recently. Many countries see it as a debt trap and US has launched a competing infra financing framework. So what "BRI partners" will be able to do and how long will the partnership last is all questionable. Stop boasting about it as if it's a master stroke.

  1462.  @ggill3866  "4) how does the free hoarding law make any sense? " - It makes absolute sense cause it's not a hoarding law at all. People should know that "hoarding" works only when it's a "Problem of Deficiency", which is what India had in 1960s before the Green revolution. Today what we have is a a "Problem of Surplus". So, just like we built dams to "store" excess water when there is a surplus supply during rainfall, so that we can use it during summer when demand of water is high, we need to do the same for agricultural produce. We need to "store" them so there is "PRICE STABILIZATION". Price stabilisation ensures the farmers get paid a viable and fixed amount and consumers get a stable price. That's why Milk has a stable price but Onions don't. They keep fluctuating from Rs 20 to Rs 200 per kg while Farmers make nothing. The use of the word "hoarding" itself is misleading. All your other arguments are also of no real concern and can be answered quiet easily. Tell me, did you know that the Contract Farming Law that Centre has brought was first brought by Punjab Govt. back in 2013?? .. All you arguments regarding concerns with the Contract Farming laws are just based on flawed understanding of the law. Also, tell me what was Punjab's water table level 10 years back V/S today? " I work at Punjab agricultural university!" - You are either being dishonest or you aren't very good at your work. I suggest you read the report that Punjab govt. produced (The Committee was lead by Montek Sigh Ahluwalia) only 1.5 years back or listen to what Sardara Singh Johl about the Farm reforms.

We have a long long way before we reach the stage were Walmart in US is today. Your argument is like "Look at all the car accidents in the Foreign country. So, let's just stick to riding bullock Carts" " If private players really wanna pay more then msp" - That is not the purpose of allowing Private Mandis. It's true that no one wants to pay even the MSP. That's because MSP is a politically inflated price. It's because of MSP that farmers in Punjab keep growing Rice/Paddy even though 1 kgs of Paddy requires 7000 Ltrs of Water. Punjab's water table has gone down drastically. Anyone who lives in Punjab knows this. Punjab (Land of 5 riviers) is slowly turning into a desert like Rajasthan. The idea is to encourage farmers to produce other things like Oil Seeds and other high value produce that market demands and sell it at a price that's viable. This needs infrastructure and building these infrastructure needs private investment. Govt. can't do it alone. Finally, Punjab over a period of time has to move away from Farming itself and reform it's economy. India needs to reduce it's population involved in farming and move many of them to manufacturing and services. Punjab used to be the richest state in 2000. Today it's GDP is same as Odisha (a state with 25% tribal population). What happened?? .. Everyone moved forward. Punjab stayed back. And you are still opposing the reform.

  1464.  @ggill3866  Btw the Private Manid will also need money for maintenance. If they can do it for a much lesser price without paying taxes or having a license, then why can't states abolish the mandi taxes to make govt. Mandi more competitive?? ... I will tell you why. That is because Punjab govt. has taken a loan against the Mandi Tax. Also, even if Govt. mandis close down the India govt. will still procure agricultural produce at MSP. It has too maintain buffers and it needs to keep PDS system running. I don't understand why we need govt. mandis in the first place. These mandis are controlled by a few men who are generally highly corrupt. Dude, you need to see what India was before 1991 and after it. "Licenses" that you are so concerned about have never done anything good for India. Why does selling and buying food need licenses anyway, they aren't selling explosives or guns.

What if a guy books an Ola ride with "pay with money option" and then after reaching his destination, runs away without paying the bill. Should the govt. then come out with license to allow people to book Ola cabs?? You see, It's not a very good argument. Licenses stifle Economic activity and only promote corruption. That's it. Unless it's something that's directly harmful, no activity should need a license. We aren't Soviet union.

Employment comes from the private sector. "We are ready for a change where farmers can get better prices of there produce and soul health can improve too!! And that we are all ready for!" - But none of the change can happen unless these reforms are brought in. Also, don't think these reforms are Magic Pills. There is a lot of work to be done after these reforms. And there will be hiccups, it won't be a perfect sail through BUT eventually outcome will be good. "And you already accepted that these bills just throws farmers out of farming so corporates can let cheap labour!!" - Never said that. Farmers still produce. Corporates build the supply chain. That's what I said. "On the other side you accepted that farmers should go out of farming!!" - Yes. Eventually that's what they have to do. Don't forget that everyone in India was a farmer once. Two generations back even my family was into farming (many of them still are). They eventually moved out. They have to. Farm lands will be consolidated with only some farmers who can grow their produce sustainably. The current scenario where the land holdings are small is unsustainable. " In this whole conversation you didn’t even mentioned one point how these bills will help farmers!!" - My conversation started with me describing how price stabilisation is important for Farmers and how removal of ECA is required for it to happen. And I did say everything else can also be explained. But it's bit hard to do so on youtube comments.Also, did you see the link I sent you? .. That has more.

  1470.  @ggill3866  I am not sure how else can I explain his but "MSP as a law" is a death sentence to farmers. It's like a person asking for sugar cause it tastes sweet but eventually it kills the person. That is not something that any govt. will agree to. Similarly, repealing the three laws is something that the govt. will not accept. Just think, 55% of India's population are Farmers or Farm workers. They are the largest voting group. Do you honestly think Modi will come up laws that specifically help a few corporates and make all farmers unhappy ?? .. It would be his and his parties political death. And no farmer is going to become any corporate's slave.

And quiet honestly, there are many countries which aren't happy with the way China is behaving, not just the US. The next decade is going to be very unstable for the World.

Almost 190 years after US independence, 18 years after Indian independence and 4 years before NASA landed man on moon. It wants India, which is a way more diverse country, to become liberal by it's standards in decades which it's society took 2 centuries to achieve. And that too much before India reaches a decent per capita. There needs to be push back against these stupid expectations.

  1485. 2:05 That's another historical inaccuracy. The British absolutely did want partition and actively schemed for it to happen.
    1
  1486. 2:13 No. The Muslim League didn't create "this entity called Pakistan" in 1930s. The didn't even think about it until much later. For a channel advocating for Historical accuracy there surely is a lot of inaccuracies in the channel.

  1487.  @mudra5114  "But the Congress would not accept to the Muslim League demands of seperate representation of Muslims in the Parliament." - No one in there right mind would accept that demand. That demand was a non-starter. Btw , I personally am very happy that partition happened. There is no point staying together when there is so much ideological differences.
    1
  1488.  @mudra5114  Yeah!.. If you don't treat us special then we want a separate country. Simple as that. If you don't bring back Article 370. We won't trade. Simple as that. Don't trade. But then don't claim we want to trade but India made us "not trade". Take some agency.

  1489. "And India must realize that China, as a close and ancient neighbour, is much more valuable that any of its former colonial masters." - China must realise that India and China can be valuable to each other only if China sees India as an equal. If China believes India should accept Chinese dominance and deal with China only as a lesser power then there is no chance of any reconciliation. Btw .. no country gets "used" by any other country. It's stupid to think that. Every country will choose it's partners as per their on interest. China keeps proping countries like Pakistan and violates treaty by attacking Indian borders and expects India to have friendly with China. As for Jayant Bhadari. That moron is bought and paid for. He is not even an Indian Citizen. There are tons of people of Chinese origin who sit outside China and criticise the China. It's not very smart to believe such people.

But blind Modi haters can't really see it. Just saying. "Tell me one incident where Dubai sheikh went out publically doing hatemingering. " - Don't think he has to. Does he? .. He doesn't need votes. Look at Erdogan though. He does, cause he needs votes. It's as simple as that. Modi is more like Erdogan but with very good economic management. " Any single case where a hindu Or a Christian was lynched or discriminated bcox of his religion? Dubai sheikh built Temples chruches even synagogues in Dubai so non Muslims could pray n the country is far away from islamic laws u can easily find alcohol prostitution drugs all those stuff." - The really question is why is it allowed in Dubai but not through out the Emirates? Why were their no temples, until very recently? .. What changed? You are comparing an Apple with a horse and saying if the horse can run, so can the apple.

  1516.  @iftah337  "I don't understand how u r giving all the credit of our economic growth to modi when 90% of the credit shld be given to man mohan singh who is the reason why we have good economy . " - That's easily the dumbest statement I have ever heard. You need a lesson in Economics. "U don't talk bout 15 lakhs he promised or 3 crore jobs he promised. In fact we now have the highest unemployment rate under modi. 6000 MSMEs were shut down in a single year. Our NPA increased from 4 lakh to 16 Lakh. Small n medium scale businesses are forced to shut down due to their policies while all the wealth of the country are given to adani n ambani. We need free market capitalism not crony capitalism, demonetisation was failure, GST is a failure." - All the points that opposition talks about. How Original!! ... . Goes to show your understanding of how economy works. Not interested in teaching you economics or changing your views on Indian Economy. Would be a waste of my time. Going to leave it at this.

None. Only people who haven't read any economic history believe that and use terms like "true growth".
    1
  1534.  @xxyz2023  I don't understand why people expect "accountablity and transparency" from a party like Congress which has no transparency within it's own party and zero accountability as it doesn't even follow it's own constitution.

"qatar was not formed on the basis of democracy" - So how about it stfu rather than trying to teach India democracy? "India was n we have constitution which guarantees equal rights." - Yes, it does. But it gaurantees Equality among equals. Your vanilla statement would mean India should not have Reservations or a Personal Board. Don't be a moron. Whatever problems you have within India( if you are Indian), discuss it with Indians. Rather than defending a foreign power. They really can do jackshit to affect change in India.

But you pay more when you consume more. If you subsidize the entire cost of fuel, the subside gets unevenly distributed based on consumption. The more one consumes the more one gets subsidized. The same happens with fertilizer subsidy. Instead, what should happen is targeted subsidy which only the poor get and rich can't avail. I think basics of economics is exactly what you need to learn. Right now your arguments aren't logical. They are based on popular political rhetoric, not economics.

  1561.  @sirantisocial9681  "as far as i know Haseena isn't a authoritarian " - That's not true. Haseena's appeal is her being the daughter of the Freedom Fighter who got Bangladesh's freedom.

The funding and stupidity of Global Islam is coming to an end brother. Enjoy it while it lasts.

  1571.  @engalipak  " I will use 'instrumental in liberating Afghanistan'" - I am not sure where Pakistan gets this sense that everyone wants to get liberated and it falls upon Pakistan's shoulders to liberate them. "Majority of Aghanis 90% + are happy for the part that the foreign occupations have ended " - I don't know what gives you this confidence but every Afghans I have talked to absolutely loathes Pakistan. "Pakistan is a 3rd world country, yet it hosts Millions of Aghans and have suffered without complaining too much about it. " - Well, I don't think it can complain given it 'liberated' Afghanistan and it's the reason they are there. "Yes I am a patriot, in fact need to be right now. Pakistani awam needs to be the most patriotic currently due to the issues we are in right now" - Good for you, and Pakistan! .. But I think, the kind of patriots, who carefully "choose" words to reaffirm Pakistan's delusions. Those 'magnificent delusions' have lead to the state Pakistan currently is in. A true Patriot would give Pakistan a does of reality, not ideology. "There is no precedent on the planet currently where Muslims in West are demanding to close down pubs, demolish other faith related infrastructure, force to wear modest clothing" - Sharia Patrols from East Ham, London .. Say Hi! "Almost all of them have moved past this view and feel embarrassed when they look back." - I am very matured, I have read the Qu'ran & Hadith and I have very smart people who have drawn the same conclusion as me. I would be embarrassed if I thought otherwise about Islam. I couldn't care less if friends of some random dude on internet are embarrassed or not.

  1588.  @shaikhrayyan2998  Dude .. RTI is not an economic reform. MGNREGA was a distributive economic reform (freebie in short, easiest reform to pass with zero opposition). FRBM was done by Vajpayee and no govt. follows it. Our fiscal deficit is always above 3%. Congress has very little to do with the IT revolution. IT revolution picked up in 2000, thanks to Y2K bug. Infact, it's often said IT revolution happened in India because govt did interfere with the sector as they understood very little of it. 2008 economic crisis was horribly managed by Congress. They printed so much money that India had double digit inflation from 2011 to 2014. 2011 is when the rupee began to weaken (check the charts), India's exports stalled and huge NPAs started to emerge. That led to twin balance sheet problem and eventually the collapse of ILFS and NBFC crisis. " Future current Israel" - That's a country of 9 million people with reserved seats for different parties. Can't be compared to India. "Latin American countries are beautiful examples of how collation government can successfully run the nation's" - I don't know what the word beautifully means but Brazil is stuck in staflation, Venezula has super high inflation and none of the countries ever grew very fast even though they are right next to the US. China could grow fast by having an export led economy that exports to the US but the Latin countries couldn't. What does that tell you about Latin Countries?

  1589.  @UmedPaliwal  " bjp also did too many stupid things they became too arrogant." - Absolutely. Add to that Chandigarh mayor election rigging. I mean how desperate can one be? .. But I don't think that's the reason behind BJP's loss. One needs to understand what happened in UP and WB. "There is actual no country which became democracy first and rich later." - Exactly. People rarely understand that Democracy is great just like work-life balance but not everyone can afford it. "It's always the opposite except the imperial powers. " - That's because imperial powers were extracting wealth from other countries and still growing quiet slowly. "Case in point South Korea, Singapore, China" - Add Taiwan, Vietnam and Japan to the list. Malaysia also grew under 22 year long autocratic rule of Mahathir. "we are in uncharted territory now" - Amen.

"ASEAN nation" - All ASEAN countries grew fast under a single party dominant rule or completely autocratic government, not coalition politics.

  1592.  @shaikhrayyan2998  "OK For you economic development is more important than democracy." - Dude .. India would still be a democracy if a single party got majority. That's what I was asking for. Why do you equate only coalition politics with democracy?? .. And economic development is NOT important for me. I have a very comfortable life already. I live in a gated society with house helps and travel around the world when I feel like. I can afford good quality education and healthcare. My life is not going to change whether India progresses economically or not. We need economic progress for the millions of poor people living in India, NOT for me. "Bro though we are slow but we are on right path" - India's demographic dividend isn't going to last for ever. Without economic reforms majority of Indians will grow old before growing rich. And that window is closing very fast. The supply chains are getting remade right now, if we don't participate this time, there will be no next time. This is the last bus. If we miss it, then we miss it forever.

  1593.  @shaikhrayyan2998  Dude .. MGNREGA wasn't an economic reform. It is a scheme to distribute money among the poor similar to Kisan Samman Nidhi. Those aren't reforms and are never opposed by any party. I am hoping for the best for the country too but hope isn't a plan. If one is realistic then thy will realize a coalition govt always means both reform agenda and execution of big ticket infra projects suffer.

  1596.  @shaikhrayyan2998  It's so cute that you think UPA "managed" 2008 financial crisis. India got fcked because of that "management". We had a double digit inflation for three years from 2011 to 2014 because of that "management". That "management" was the reason India was part of the "Fragile Five". Which world do you live in?? It doesn't seem like you understand economics at all. Why don't you spend sometime studying rather than wasting my time with lame arguments?

And how many people can govt. employ?? .. 1 Cr students graduate in India. How many people do you think govt. of India should employ? "Jobs in India have been all time low after 2014.

There are 60+ Countries including countries like Guyana, Barbados, Latvia and Puerto Rico above it. But China is the one challenging the US. Why? .. Cause Chinese economy is the 2nd largest in the world. That means a large market and economic heft in geopolitics. China's economy is the 2nd largest because of it's population too. But the world leaders aren't morons like you to disregard it because of low per capita. India's low per capita and favourable demographic composition only means one thing and that is a huge potential to grow. If you don't get it, the jokes on you. By all means, continue to be a fool.

"Every state in India doesnt have Bengaluru and Kolkata. " - Kolkata is a sh*thole. Looks like you don't know what you are talking about. No one has stopped you from going to bangalore btw. You don't need a passport/visa to go there. Btw, there is Mumbai, Gurgaon, Pune, Hyderabad and donzens of tier-II cities like Indore, Jaipur etc with jobs as well. "I dont think there can be any comparison with the govt teacher job and a private tchr job in terms of rumenaration." - I think that's the problem. Govt. teachers get paid way more than they should. Which is why people run after those jobs. "After all u hv to get married and make arrangements for your sister's marriages too. Some hv dreams of building their Pucca house. Its not about one man earning and then sleeping. Its about running families." - Everyone has responsibilities and dreams. The Maibaap sarkar attitude isn't going to help anyone. Please answer this one question. How many jobs do you expect the govt. to provide? Btw, I am happy to help in any way I can. Let me know your qualifications, what do you do now and how much do you expect to earn. I can't help you with govt. jobs though.

The TV interview with Arnab where RG talked like he is high on cocaine is fresh in my mind. Perhaps you need a refresher.

Why does someone think they are entitled to such protections in the first place, especially since no one else other than Punjab, harayana and some parts of Western UP get it???? No other item other than Wheat, Rice, Sugar and few others enjoy these provisions. This has lead to farmers producing more and more rice and wheat even though there is no market to buy it. That has lead to depletion of water levels, thanks to all the free electricity and water. Why do farmers from Punjab get these assurances and sell paddy at Rs 1850, when farmers from other places in India sell it at Rs 1250?? If you can't understand that even after getting cheap inputs (like free water & electricity and subsidized fertilizer) and selling price which is 50% above market value, the unit economics is still not working out, then you need to diversity out of it, then nothing much can be done to help them. By opposing the farm laws, the farmers have tightened the noose around their neck. So many people including SS Johal said it, but when people are so eager to kill themselves, no one can stop it from happening.

    1
  1679.  @slashybluesy  I agree with @akshat Prakash, who says inflation will be higher than usual (4% to 5% instead of 2% to 3%). When I said there won't be a sustained inflation, I meant hyper inflation (as that was the original question). And I too am not sure if Texas's ability to produce oil in the long term has been affected. There is a possibility it has been and that's why Saudis are behaving the way they are.
    1
  1680.  @Truth-sv4lt  Modi govt. has charged high taxes on Oil for the past 6 years (when the prices remained depressed bcs US went from Net importer of Oil to Net exporter due to Fracking). It's not a new thing. Modi govt. could do that cause opposition was sleeping and the common man wasn't complaining. They were not reducing the price cause they thought Saudi's increased production would help bring the Brent Crude prices down without Govt. charging less taxes. That didn't work out, the opposition seems to have woken up & the common man is complaining. So, now what needs to be seen is how will BJP react to these new pressures. Will it wait for Texas to start producing or work with states to reduce taxes or keep the prices high and take the political punishment. Remember. Every problem is an optimization problem. The solution changes with changing situation.

If that was the case Thailand would have won all medals. Many times, if one is going against someone very powerful who can ruin one's life in multiple ways, people can't find the strength to oppose the person.

" Remember nipah virus, though magnitude was small, MMS bought gene sequencing machine. Now same is being used for corona virus. - No other virus outbreak, not even previous SARS (which is what Covid-19 is), can be compared to Covid-19 outbreak because of one fundamental difference between how the virus spreads.

  1701.  @swapniln8904  " Interesting, but then why he cries 70 years , when the condition of india was bad after 1947? " - I don't know who you are talking about. But if you mean Modi, then I must say, I am not a BJP spokeperson and I can't answer why he says the things that he does. My guess would be to discredit anything and everything Congress has ever done. So, I am smart enough to know that the narrative that Congress hasn't done anything in 70 years is crap. But I don't think most Indians are. So some believe it and it makes for good politics. Similar games are played by the Congress against BJP btw. "He would had made arrangements for travelling laborers." - Yes. Very Likely. "built oxygen plant instead of 1300 crore home." - Hope you do know that Oxygen shortage is a logistics issue, not a financial one. Redirecting 1300 Crs into making "oxygen plant" (as if it can be done in a day or even a month), would have made zero difference to the accessible Oxygen supply that India has today. So, this is just an opposition narrative that doesn't hold much water as an argument, but sure does make for good politics. Since you have diverted away from just talking about Covid into talking about economy, let me address that a bit. "He would not had carried out demonetization, the most foolish move. " - I agree. Purely from the perspective of economics , It was a dumb move. " GST would had good structure" - Congress had 10 year to implement it. They kept discussing it for "good structure". My guess would be, based on historical data, Congress would have discussed it some more for another 10 years but would never have been able to implement it, whether with good or bad structure. Getting all states to agree to let go of their tax collecting ability with many of those states having opposition in power is like solving a 30-dimensional Optimization problem. I don't respect people who don't appreciate that fact and rather read a few articles and jump to the conclusion that GST could have had a "better structure". "Some good public sector companies he would had established." - That's a clear impossibility. The only companies which are good are the ones which are efficient. And no Public Sector company is efficient. Public sector companies should all be sold off irrespective of whether they are profit making or not, unless they are strategically important. Something that this govt. has dared to say. Every previous govt. did it, cause it's the right thing to do, but didn't talk about it, they said "disinvestment". "He would had not done hindu muslim hatred." - This is very likely true. They would have promoted caste divisions. Since that helps their politics. "He would not had sold airports, railways, etc to private players." - Who sold the Delhi Airport?? .. remind me again? .. More importantly it's so moronic that educated Indians talk of Airports and Railways being "sold" to private players, when what's happening is actually a revenue sharing agreement exactly like Spectrum auctions. Govt.s's recurring non-tax income increases with this. And every Airport which has been sold is run better than govt. run airports. That is a fact based by data. Manmohan Singh govt. couldn't have brought in the extremely important Farm reforms and Labour reforms. They couldn't have privatised Public Sector Banks. Another extremely necessary step. They could have brought in the Mining reforms maybe. But nothing else. So, NO. I don't think Manmohan Singh would have done better for economy, even though he is an economist himself. He didn't have the political backing needed to implement difficult reforms. Now, please don't tell me economy grew faster when MMS was PM. Anyone who knows basic economics would know there is always a lag between the reform and economics. And Indian economy has been slowing down because the credit growth had collapsed, thanks to NPAs in the banks. IBC solved that issue. Guess which govt. brought that in.

  1702.  Maximum Max  "well written sir." - Thanks " india today is full of highly oversmart unwise people who simply know to question and dont have the brains to analyze the root cause of anything holistically" - And most of them are in a slumber until someone starts protesting. Then they wake up, take a min to decide which of the two parties "seems" like the victim, read a few news articles and jump to conclusions. Next thing you know is #ISupportFarmer trending everywhere. "both UPA and NDA are effectively the same" - Exactly. Just like The Republic and The Wire are the same. It's just that, one is more polished than the other. And I actively avoid The Quint and Scroll. Those are very depressing. If someone keeps reading them, as many people do, you think that the country has gone to the Dogs, especially the Economy. Little so people know that Indian Economy is all set to scale new highs. "the only parties that dont do this is the BJD, JDU, AIADMK and maybe AAP." - BJD doesn't do it cause, one, it's based around a linguistic identity and Muslims are only 2% of the state. Polarisation doesn't work. AAP doesn't do it cause in a small place like Delhi, where public is relatively better educated and financially sound, it's easy to sell the idea of good governance. As AAP expands, it's politics will change. And given that in future India is going to have a larger Urban population vs rural, AAP maybe become the party which is BJP lite and fights in Urban India. I don't know about the others. AAP's stance on Farmer's protest was hilarious. Kejriwal implements Odd-Even and encourages people to not burst crackers on Diwali to control Delhi pollution but when Reforms are brought in that would stop stubble burning, the reason behind Delhi's pollution, he opposes it with the aim to win seats in upcoming Punjab election. He is Greta Thunberg Dwitiya. In every possible sense. :-D

If your theory was right Sashi Tharoor would be in India's PM. That's never going to happen either. Bureaucrats like Jaishankar and Ashwini Vaishnaw get elected only because Modi's electoral base votes for anyone Modi wants it to vote. That's why Jaishankar's constituency is in Gujarat. They would loose miserably without political support. Being qualified for a position and having the ground level connect to get elected is two very different things. "Yogi is prolly the next.

Whether he was absolved by courts. Whether the govt. lobbied against him for their own political benefit, is irrelevant.

By the time UPA handed over the power India was facing the biggest NPA crisis in the banking system because of crony lending done over phone calls and a 10% inflation. It's not just Elections. You have no clue about how the Economy works either. Or you do but are busy peddling propaganda. Either way, there isn't much worth listening to, in your comment.

  1736.  @tomchristo  "NDA hasn’t fixed the NPA crisis" - That's the craziest thing I have ever heard. IBC is what has led to fixing of NDA crisis. Demonetization was/is a bad idea implemented only because of political reasons, but it isn't a structural problem unlike NPA crisis. "unplanned implementation of GST" - Still better than no implementation. UPA kept 'planning' and discussing it for 20 f*cking years. They wanted to plan some more. "neither of which UPA would have ever done." - I agree. It would instead implement a f*cked up land acquisition bill that will haunt India for years to come. "Also, inflation was demand driven and fuel prices were high." - Fuel prices were high, yes. But inflation was high because of copious amounts of notes that were printed during the second term "Now, India is in stagflation now" - Dude.. you seriously don't any economics. Do you? .. Where are you copying these dumb statements from? "the government did not pass through any of the low fuel prices to consumers and destroyed the economy," - All the Welfare schemes under NDA were funded by these. You don't seem to know much about anything. "Yes, there were issues during UPA but none like the blunders of this current government." - This is a bullshit narrative. NDA didn't start fixing problems until sometime. but certain didn't create structural problems like UPA did. "Stop thinking only you know economics" - I never said only I know economics. I said you don't And you certainly don't. "Americans had some sense which you Indians clearly lack!" - Says a moron who thinks confirming with him is the only way one can have sense. I don't support either parties btw. I just like to call out the bullshit of Bhakts from both sides of the aisle.

  1740.  @Cotswolds1913  " India was very divided before Britain took over." - India had been divided and unified many times before the British came to India. Mughals aren't the only example. There were empires before them that had unified India 1000 years before Mughals came. And India didn't transition from Mughals to the British. There was a 70 year rule of Maratha Empire in between. People seem to forget that. "Would India have unified in an alternate timeline with no British control?? Idk, that's really hard to answer, I'd like to think it would have" - I don't think that hypothetical question can be answered without being biased. But given the advancement in communications, it's likely that someone would have unified India. Would India have looked exactly the same as today? - Probably not. "but we I think can at least take some of the good that came out of our timeline, rather than just lament the bad." - No one is lamenting the bad. But what you are trying to do is push a cuddly narrative. It's telling an African-American, "well it's true that the British brought you to America and traded you as slaves but atleast you got democracy and a chance at achieving the American Dream. So, don't just lament the bad, appreciate that atleast some good came out of the time you were being tortured." or telling the Jews, "it's true you had to suffer the holocaust, but atleast you got a country of your own. So, don't lament the bad. Look at the bright side. Atleast appreciate that you got something good out of it." Highly insensitive and patronising.

Or are you unable to let go of your pride to admit to what has actually been happening for ages? "Whats the use of development if bigotry and hatred is spreading in the hearts of the people?" - Sadly the alternate is a party that loves dividing Hindus on the basis of caste, plays to the most conservative form of Islam and makes sure they implement economic policies that keeps everyone poor. Once the demographic dividend is gone then all of us can be poor and debate who was more bigoted. Until then I will chose the lesser evil. A more prosperous society also means communal riots can't be engineered, more dignified life for everyone and a more tolerant and cohesive society. But that is never going to happen with Prince charming in power. But I don't think you are farsighted enough to be able to see that. For me economy is all that matters. Everything else depends on economy. Everything.

  1768.  @AJ-uw9oe  "The economy has been on a downwards trajectory for some years now." - The Economy has been on a downward trajectory for 6 Qtrs before Covid, but the reasons for the same was the twin balance sheet crisis and NPAs leading to fall in credit growth. The effect was seen after 2018, after having accelerated by demonetisation but the structural problems started long before that. The fact is, people who have no clue about how the economy works always point to past economic performance to come to the conclusion that the future is going to be the same or even worse. That's most Indians, btw. That's why political parties lie to their faces without them having any idea. "And no rebounding is going to happen next year." - That's just a plain stupid statement. Even with the 2nd wave, the growth for FY22 which was previously predicted to be 11% has now been revised to 9.5%. That's a rebound by every possible definition. India will be the only large economy to do that. I don't care which political party is in power or which comes to power in future. The fact is, Indian Economy is at the cusp of a multi-year growth cycle, irrespective of the power at centre. It's going to happen no matter what, the only risk being Covid (which given the second wave should be taken care of). And then if NDA comes to power they are going to claim they did it because they rectified the economy and if UPA comes to power they will claim they magically did it as soon as they came to power. Fact is, it was going to happen anyway and both are fooling the citizens. " India has still not managed to hit 10% of vaccination targets." - You seem to be in love with the past. Past isn't an indicator of the future. Doesn't matter what India has or hasn't managed to do, what matters is what India is going to do in the future. The constraint was in production and logistics, not in finance or administration of vaccines. Both those issues are almost solved. Vaccination numbers should drastically improve in the coming weeks. But there is still an uncertainty related to Covid in the future, whether or not India vaccinates all it's citizens or not.

  1809.  @itr8247  Brain drain isn't a real thing. Oly people ho don't really understand policy think about brain drain. 3000 Qualified Indians wouldn't have done some ground breaking work if they stayed back in India. They would have occupied jobs which a 100k other Indians can do. Sending 3000 Indians abroad creates 3000 extra jobs for Indians within India. Remittances increase and a growth of diaspora has huge benefits in the long run. As for getting drug addicts back, those people became drug addicts after being their illegally. India can take back illegal Indians so that UK can then stop blaming India for all the illegal Pakistanis and Bangladeshis in UK. Separates the wheat from chaff. The entire deal works great for India.

What would Qatar be without Gas money ? Why does Qatar buy Athletes from poor nations to compete in Olympics? .. Why can't the sheikh develop his own sports talent which much poorer nations can do? .. What is the condition of labours that Qatar hires? .. Can Qatar survive without hiring Labours? There are so many questions to be asked that within a few years there will be protest everywhere in Qatar and against Qatar around the world. The Qatari pride will go out of the window and they won't be able to travel to Europe to buy "Luxury" goods. You are either naive or just plain dumb to ask that question.

  1812. "forget to understand that he is old and being citizen he would also have hoped to see his country grow and saw examples of Korea, Singapore " - None of those grew as democracies. In fact no fast growing country has ever been a democracy. Would the senile moron, whose pessimistic views are understandable, advice India to give up being a democracy for 20 years? .. I am sure every policy required to achieve fast growth and become developed a economy can then be implemented so that he isn't "disappointed" anymore. "I just hope that India gets it's act together and we are able to civilize ourselves because clearly we are not" - Civility is a luxury which can only be afforded by the resource rich. Every country which you find to be "civilised" got rich before they got civilised. Your yardstick of measurement is so skewed that it is bordering the loony land that Ashoka Mody lives in.

Biden's foreign policy is based on US interests. Trump's foreign policy was transactional when every time something didn't happen according to him, he used to throw a fit. I don't know where you are coming from, but you seem to believe that it's US's job to protect human rights abuses around the world, that it has the capability to do so and that it has been an important consideration for US actions in the past. None of this is true.

  1817.  @keithjohnson49  They are proud of not integrating. And the plan is absolutely to take UK over. That was what Sharia patrol by Anjem Chaudhary was about. They will keep crying about human rights, their brothers and sisters will hold protests over various parts of the world against your country and start boycotting your products. They will make an absurd demand for a separate country since their values aren't compatible with the British Values. Then they will start funding the extremists (that has already started in UK). Those extremists will turn into terrorists and get organized like Hamas. The Ummah will promptly justify it's violence and claim they are freedom fighters. Ultimately, Britain might give them a separate separate country. But all won't leave. An then few years the cycle will start again. It's a pattern. Palestine is about setting precedence, more than anything.

  1821.  @pacifistview6027  People will believe what they want to. Doesn't look like a conspiracy to me. Looks more like a section of protesting farmers didn't trust what their leaders had to say and decide to take matters into their own hands. A few protestors confirmed as much. The hoisting of flag at Red Fort could have been done by some people within the protests but the protestors broke barricades to enter Delhi before time,zone destroyed public property, tried to run policemen over with tractors all on their own. There is no conspiracy theory there. It's all caught on camera & is pretty much self explanatory.
    1
  1822.  @pacifistview6027  That's true for every protest. People will always try to sabotage protests. That's why it's so difficult to organize. This isn't new. This happens all round the world, in every democracy and has been happening since ages. STOP saying it's not good for Indian Democracy as if it's a Unique incident. And NO miscreant forced them to break barricades, destroy public property & try to run policemen over with tractors. That was all them. Stop blaming others & take responsibility.

  1823.  @pacifistview6027  I don't know what to say if people are unable to counter it even after 20 years. But I would also like to add that there is a common pattern, observed for ages, in how protests turn from peaceful to violent when the protest leaders don't have concensus among them or are unable to handle a small section of protestors who don't trust the leadership and eventually turn violent.

  1832. ​ @mayank1721  "fully supported by UP, Rajasthan, Uttarakhand,Bihar, MP , parts of Karnataka, Maharashtra & count in Gujarat " - That's a tall claim born out of delusion. Just because people of these states voted for Modi (or BJP) doesn't mean they will vote for anyone who replaces him. Believing that is delusion. This BS is forwarded by people like Shantanu Gupta. Parts of Karnataka, the lingayats, who vote for BJP don't even vote for Modi. They vote for Yediyurappa. Why would Marathis vote for Yogi and not Devendra Fadnavis? or Nitin Gadhkari What is Yogi's story? .. That he improved UP's security by extra judicially killing gang members? .. That's a problem of UP only. No one relates to that. Who looks up at UP as an ideal state? .. Who would say let's make our state like UP? ... No one. Keep believing that dumb crap for another 10 years. And then you and many like you will be forced to face the reality.

  1834.  @qwertyca  " Yogi's story is that he totally transformed the politics of one of India's worst states." - That's great. Why would people of other states relate to that? .. Other states weren't in Worst condition. UP was. "In addition, he has the same quality of Modi that he has sacrificed having a family in order to work for the nation. " - That doesn't mean much. Rahul Gandhi doesn't have a family too. That means jack shit. No one votes for Modi because he doesn't have a family. " but Yogi is also respected in Maharashtra." - Respect will not get you votes.

  1835.  @mayank1721  "Name one ideal State ! " - So your argument is there is no ideal state so people will aspire for their state to be UP? .. Isn't that a weird argument. Gujarat wasn't a perfect state. But people were willing to aspire based on Gujarat model. UP isn't that.
    1
  1836.  @mayank1721  "I understand your frustration" - Not everyone calling out your delusion is frustrated. "Law & order model of Yogi" - Law & Order is a UP issue only. No other state is going to vote because of "law & order". The law & order is other states is sorted. They didn't have gun wielding gangs like UP. I guess you are too stupid to understand that even when said explicitly. "pretty simple, Hindutva, Ideology" - simple minded people always think everything is pretty simple. Hindutva and Ideology are the same thing. And BJP's core voters (which is only 20% of total voters) vote on ideology. Another 20% vote that BJP gets vote because of Modi. And BJP isn't going to win without those extra votes which Yogi can't get. But to be able to see that one needs to have way less delusion than you have.

US has failed at that, while Nordic countries have done well.

Not sure which of those I should be jealous of. I have a lot of Malayali friends. Each of them is pretty smart and very hard working. None of them can find a job in Kerala. The state is educating it's citizens and sending them off to work in other states. 10% of Malayali work outside of the state. And guess what Biharis are shifting into the state , marrying malayi girls and settling down, cause they don't find anyone else deluded enough to pay 500 INR for unskilled work. Today they constitute 10% of Kerala. Don't be deluded. There is nothing that one has to be jealous of. Food for thought: Who do you think the Biharis are going to vote for in the Future?

  1863.  @nikhilspeaking  "it is news because we are struggling to achieve what we had taken for granted." - Thanks to the disastrous economic management of the Congress from 2011 to 2014. The growth rate that you took for granted under the Congress rule was achieved only because of the policies of NDA. But after the 2008 economic meltdown, Congress shit so hard on the economic that it took years to get the inflation down to sub 4% and turn the credit cycle. You would know that off course if you had any clue about how economy works and India's economic policies and their impact in the last 25 years.

  1864.  @nikhilspeaking  You are right. I am an engineer. But, no prizes for guessing that. In a country like India, there are many engineers. For example, Raghuram Rajan is an engineer with no econ. education. I think I am doing fine with that respect. As for "few bold moves", I don't know about you, but GST, IBC, privatisation of govt entities, like Air India and the banks, opening up the mining sector, privatising discoms, changing labour laws etc are pretty bold moves when it comes to economy. I would love to know what should the Modi govt have done for you to say, they know what they are doing and aren't clueless.
    1
  1865.  @nikhilspeaking  "of course you dont need econ. education to comment on govt. policy, but you can look up whether you can get finance PhD without PhD econ. coursework at MIT. " - Well, if having an Master level econ. course is the bar, I am happy to say that I qualify. "Banking, power, basic urban infra, railways have a lot of scope for reforms above and beyond paper. Passing reforms in parliament is not a difficult task for this government" - I would like if you be a little more specific. Pick, let's say, banking and tell me what reforms you would like the govt. to pass and once these are passed you would then NOT say "Modi doesn't have a clue". What's the ask? But if this is the criteria for someone to choose between BJP and Congress, then don't you think the argument goes against Congress? .. Cause any objective person would know, Congress can't pass anything in the parliament. Manmohan Singh literally said this "I have done my best, given the constraints of coalition govt."

    1
  1870. ​ @mohd_gani  "In world market when gas (petroleum) price was dropped" - One has to be a special kind of stupid to counter themselves in the same comment. How do you claim they control the Gas/petrol prices while saying "when the prices dropped in the world market." Clearly prices are determined in the world market. And Yes.. when prices dropped in the world market, the tax was increased to keep the prices same cause unlike Ravish, Modi has a brain. Modi knows that reducing the prices is easy but increasing prices later when the prices go up (which they always do) isn't easy. That extra tax was used to fund making of 110 Million Toilets, 4 Cr houses for poor. That's part of the welfare I spoke about earlier. Btw .. Subsidising Petrol by reducing taxes is Anti-poor. The Rich who uses 100 ltrs of petrol everyday gets more subsidy than the poor who uses only 2 ltrs to do Swiggy delivery. Your Journalistic God.. ravish Bhai knows this but he will not tell you cause that distracts from the agenda. Now tell me how are you so uneducated that you lack simple understanding of economics?

  1871.  @mohd_gani  "The regulation of fuel prices in India involves a combination of market forces and government oversight." - Overwhelming factor is the market forces. I can't convince people who want to act smart by forwarding lame arguments. And I could care less what Ravish thinks. He is irrelevant. I did watch the whole video, he continues to be as agenda driven as ever. Srinivas, Nidhi etc are expected to remain the same. You can take them out of NDTV but not take the NDTV out of them.

We did travel in railways due to lack of options. But two things stand out in your argument which is typical of a Congress follower. 1. You think that's called "development", that's why you say "developed by Congress" rather than calling it lack of development. 2. You think "Sabne Congress ka namak khaya hai". Chutiye.. they did what they did with Tax payers money. Congress ne hamara namak khaya hai not the other way round like all Congressi think.

  1889.  @calmdown1992  The original comment isn't about hatred though. It's a political statement. Look at this moronic statement of "Rider X", who is supposedly an expert on India along with "Audio Pervert" "Instead of that they should have focused on internal health issues so this would have never happen." - No objective person with even an average IQ would make this statement. Indian Healthcare system has always been inadequate. Now, it has been exposed thanks to Covid-19. That's it. It's not like the current govt. destroyed the existing capacity or could have drastically changed it in 7 years. Whatever is happening in India would have happened regardless. And Besides, no healthcare system in the world is designed to deal with such upsurges that why several developed countries struggled with it as well. People forget the oxygen shortages faced by New York last year or piling death bodies in Italy. But these statements are still being made. The reason is political, not empathy or because they care about what's happening in India. They don't. Another example of this would be the moron painting farmer protest as "oppression of Sikhs".

  1896.  @anmolmonga1933  "seeing how BJP is dealing with manipur it reminds me of indira Gandhi. " - Modi in many ways is very similar to Indira. I agree. "Congress thought they couldn’t loose but they lost. " - I am not sure which time do you mean. I think BJP has done a very bad job handling the Manipur crisis and the Wrestler's protest. That being said, you tell me, do you think Manipur has the same impact that Emergency had on people of all parts of India collectively? .. I think not. CSDS Lokniti surveys done just a month back( long after manipur violence started) show the PM is still very popular among the masses. And BJP has a lot of real hard infra work that it can show as work. Anything could happen. BJP could loose and Rahul could become the PM. But currently it seems highly unlikely. My assessment is not based on my feelings, but on survey data.

  1897.  @TeluguBusinessChannel  "Do u know in the survey by Lokniti CSDS poor people in India think Modi raised India status at international level BUT he ignored poor people!" - Let me rephrase that. As per CSDS Lokniti survey, people believe Modi raised India's status at international level. They also believe he stands for development BUT more of that development has been for the rich rather than the poor. So that's basically glass half full problem. Identifying a problem(not even a severe one) is just half of the work. Political parties also need to provide a solution that people will buy. Forget about people buying it, they haven't even provided a solution. You are too superficial in your assessment. If anyone thinks given that most people don't believe there is a severe enough problem, lack of a solution( and a trustworthy face who can implement it), Modi's popularity, there is a chance that BJP would loose the 225 seats which it won with more than 50% majority, then that person needs help.

  1898.  @TeluguBusinessChannel  1. That has been always true at any given point in history of the republic. The more important question is do they believe their situation has improved and if not who is the person/party that they can change it for them. 2. And yet you seem to confident that, even though the survey data suggests otherwise, Congress someone how magically has a better chance than it did in 2019.How about you wait for the seat sharing arrangement and a common agenda to come out before you start drawing conclusions. 3. It's not a numerical guarantee, but statistical probability. Btw, what kind of stupidity led you to compare Punjab elections with Loksabha election?? .. Congress handed over Punjab election to AAP by propping up Sidhu to publicly challenge Captain Amarendra Singh. Do you see anyone from within BJP challenging Modi publicly?? .. Why compare the two situation? .. "Btw, when it comes to development, Congress delivered better GDP growth rate than BJP." - Firstly, when people vote, they don't do a comparative study of who had better growth rates. It's weird that one would suggest this when the argument is about elections. And if you personally believe that "better GDP growth rate" = "better development". Then I am sorry to say, but you need more education on how the economy works. I am not sure what BJP fans and Congress fans should do. But you should work on your understanding of Indian Politics and Statistics. I don't think you fully comprehend what you are talking about.

"Make 200 million citizens second class citizens ?" - Depends on what you mean by second class citizens. Check out Malaysia model. At 60% Muslim population, Islam is the state religion and the majority have reservations for themselves. Everyone else adjusts to them, not the other way round. Are the others second class citizens? And this is one of the "progressive" countries. I don't think I need to spell out what happens in Islamic countries. India was partitioned only because one community decided they can't live with others. They got their own country made on religious lines. And whatever remained should "adjust" with them and make them feel comfortable while they believe us to be kafirs, they won't practice yoda, ayurveda or any Indian classical art (deep institutional hate for everything indigenous). There is nothing more right wing than Islam itself. It will and has taken over whenever you give it space. Kuch bhi toh aap bol rahe ho sir. What I am saying is based on facts. The "liberals" have no clue what Islam is and what it leads too even if there are thousands of examples and they ask all sorts of d*mb questions. The British and Europeans are finding it out the hard way. Why do you think every country in "liberal" Europe is voting right wing govts in?

  1912.  @gurpreetbrar7005  Your views are bound to be miopic and specific to your limited experience. That's not how policy decisions for the whole nation is going to be made. You being a farmer doesn't make much of a diff. Also, given the time at which you are replying to the comment it's highly likely that you don't even live in India and are bullshiting here just cause you are from Punjab and a Pan-National effort against the Farm Bills is taking place anywhere Punjabis live. Just goes to show how big the vested interest of Punjabi Farmers selling paddy at MSP is.
    1
  1913.  @gurpreetbrar7005  Exactly. Policies are made to serve the people and these policies do exactly that. The people protesting behind the organised protests are the ones who are loosing their rent seeking ability which are not even 0.1% of India's population. These policies are positively affect majority of the people. Should have been done probably 30 years back. The narrative of "capitalist cronies" cronies & "Adani-Ambani" is BULLSHIT. Tell it to poor souls who don't understand Economics, not me. Doesn't work on me.

  1914. Oh btw!.. I don't know what Mr. Bhalla said about Labour laws but yes, they need to be relaxed as some of them have been along with the farm bills. That's why labour Unions were out Protesting and adding numbers to farmer's protest. Just another protest to protect another rent seeking behavior. Protest against "cronies" and pretend that you are talking for a class of people while what you are actually doing is protecting the rights of a few and depriving a vast majority of that class from getting benefitted. DISGUSTING. This is a pattern. Happened during 1991. Happens when labor laws are liberalised. And is happening when Farm laws were reformed. Will happen again when Farm laws regarding sugarcane are reformed, if ever. That will be a much bigger protest which is why govt. reformed only the Rice+Wheat Mafia & left the Sugarcane for now.

  1915.  @gurpreetbrar7005  And as far as job security for working class is concerned, policy shouldn't regulate the employers so much , in the name of job security, that employers have to close down the company itself. What happens if govt. regulates what Infy & TCS do in order to provide job security. But the regulation is so much that their costs increase and they become less competitive globally. Eventually their business is taken away by some other more competitive company. All Infy & TCS employees loose their jobs. So, what's the use of the policy meant to provide job security ? This was the case with labour laws.Visit Kanpur to see this first hand. Why do you think, India, a country which is able to produce Automobiles (which have many parts and hence a complex supply chain) at competitive prices but can't produce simple Ganesh Statues, Garments or Agarbattis, all of which are much easier to manufacture than cars??

Period. This Adani-Ambani Rhetoric is pure political fuckery without an ounce of legitimacy.
    1
  1917.  @gurpreetbrar7005  Gurpreet, you said you were a Farmer. I would like to know what do you produce. And I have one small question for you. Milk is a commodity. It's production fluctuates and hence there is a variation in supply and demand. But Milk prices in the Market are stable. You can go to the market today, tomorrow or 6 months from now, but you will get the milk at same price. At the same time, Onion which also a commodity has huge price variations. It's prices vary from Rs 20 to Rs 200. Why is Price of Milk Stable but Price of Onions vary ??
    1
  1918.  @gurpreetbrar7005  So what if there is no demand for milk which has been produced? .. Supply can have a higher frequency in case of milk but what happens when more Milk is produced than what is in demand or say due to some reason there is more demand than how much ever milk is supplied? ... Milk isn't like Iron Ore or Gold where you can ramp up or ramp down production/supply. What happens to the prices then ?
    1
  1919.  @gurpreetbrar7005  The Answer is "Storage"(by converting milk into powder that increases the shelf life). Just like we build Dams to store water during rainy season. Dams prevent flooding due to excess water supply when the demand is low during rainy season and also act as a source of water when the supply is scare but there is huge demand like in summer. Storage is answer to price stabilisation. Onions prices vary cause they can't be stored because of Essential Commodity Act, which was also reformed. Onion prices crash due to excess supply during production season forcing the farmers to sell at very low prices. And when there is money to be made Farmers don't have any Onions to sell. Then govt. has to get it from by imports and subsidies it using tax payer's money.
    1
  1920.  @gurpreetbrar7005  Dude, the amount of storage than Agri businesses will need to do before they can artificially increase the price and sell it to the consumers is impractical. It's like saying Corporates can create artificial scarcity of water by "hoarding" water during rainy season. It's just not practical. No private player will invest in creating storage and supply chains if govt. puts a clause on ECA. Then the whole reform is of no use. And it's wrong to compare India with America cause just 2% of Americans are involved in Agriculture and it's highly subsidised but the subsidy burden is carried by 89% of the population through Taxes. In India, 55% of Population depend on agriculture and it's subsidised by 45% population. How is that going to be sustainable ?? There is a long distance for Indian agri sector to go before corporates start squeezing money out of farmers for better profit margins. Right now there is enough potential so that everyone can make money, more importantly the farmers. FPOs have to be something like Amul, which is a co-operative marketing it's own products. Eventually, bigger FPOs will buy operations of smaller FPOs for consolidation to happen. FPOs should be big enough to be able to bargain with Corporates. These reforms aren't magic solutions. These are necessary but insufficient. A lot needs to be done before everything starts working smoothly. A lot.
    1
  1921.  @gurpreetbrar7005  Yes. Marginalized Farmers should be protected. Like a diversification fund and DBT for small farmers based on size of land per acre. What are your suggestions ? Same goes for fertilizer subsidy btw. DBT, so that farmers stop using Urea. What's the problem with Contract Farming? It needs to be through an FPO where even small farmers have collective bargaining power. Private companies already buy through APMC. I know that. It's not about them. Why force farmers to sell through APMC?.. That's the real question. Let the Farmer decide where he/she wants to sell. There is no law stopping the Farmer from selling at APMC. It's just that now farmers have an extra option. They can also sell to other states now without state govt. intervention. Finally, expecting govt. of India to buy produce at various intervals is not a practical expectation. If prices go too low for all commodities?? .. Can the govt. even do that? It will bankrupt India if govt. starts procuring everything. And as for MSP, anyone who knows anything about MSP knows that it's a politicised tool. MSP is 50% higher than the market price in case of rice, for example. The point is, finally food prices have to be determined by Free Market Economics. It's just that Farmers should have the bargaining power to demand their input costs + profits from whoever they sell to.

  1922.  @gurpreetbrar7005  The only problem I see with the reform is enforcement of Contracts. Farmers should be able to go to courts rather than SDO.

  1923.  @gurpreetbrar7005  India is liberalising Argi Economy but it can always tax imports from outside India. US won't be able to dump anything in India. India doesn't have an FTA with any country other than Asean. If anything, India will have it's own commodity markets for price discovery, but that far off as of now. India first needs to build Agri supply chains. One of the primary reasons India didn't enter RCEP is to protect it's milk producers from Australian Milk products which are produced at a massive economies of scale and hence cheaper. Modi can't win 2024 if he upsets the Farmers. They are his largest voter base. As for growing other crops. I absolutely agree. India needs to grow Oil Seeds, Lentils etc. Also, one other thing. India is a consumption led economy. Increasing farmer income means a huge boost to Indian economy because consumption will then be Rural driven rather than Urban Driven. I really hope Modi uses his huge mandate to push through much needed economic reforms (some more are left) and push a huge infrastructure drive rather than wasting the mandate to play Hindu-Muslim Games, CAA/NRC and all other kinds of politically and ideologically driven bullshit that he does.

  1924.  @gurpreetbrar7005  One this point, both you and me agree word by word except the part about competing with China. That ship has sailed long back. Today if India is able to win against Vietnam in , it would be a really big achievement. India is shifting towards manufacturing slowly like India became the net exporter of Mobile phones last year. Eventually, an ecosystem will be created in India and we won't need to import any part from China. As for R&D and skilled work force, that realization has already come. Hence the New Education Policy. Btw, have you checked out Pravaig ?

  1926.  @gurpreetbrar7005  Eventually. Won't happen by 2025 though. :-D It will be around 7 Trillion USD by 2030. But for that Modi govt. has to privatise some Public sector banks and PSUs. But O am sure as soon as that happens, people will be like "Desh ko bech Diya". :-D
    1
  1927.  @gurpreetbrar7005  Dude. As long as we have public sector banks, there will always be a politician somewhere who will take x amount of money and make a phone call to the banks chairman to approve a huge loan that the bank is almost certain will go bad. That's the very definition of Crony Capitalism. So two things need to be done. 1) A few Public sector banks should be privatised. It doesn't make sense for all Public sector banks to have branches & ATMs serving all areas. That's redundancy and highly inefficient. 2) The rest of the Public sector banks should be transferred to a separate holding company so that the govt. can indirectly guide the bank for more financial inclusion but can never order it to sanction loans. Those decisions would be independent. The NPAs that are going to rise to 15% is bcs of Covid. That was expected. But the previous NPA cycle is almost coming to an end, thanks to IBC. As for Private banks, it's true that RBI has to improve it's regulation but there are two things, private banks don't deliberately make bad loan decisions and hence there is less chance of failing and there is a high chance that they consolidate into some other Banks if they make bad decisions. Just like any other business. They don't have to be repeatedly refinanced. Finally, it's ironic that you see refinancing of public sector banks using Tax Payers money as problematic and unsustainable but not the funding of MSP for select crops for only 6% of Farmers. :-) These are exact same things. I understand that you might not agree. So let's skip the last part.

No healthcare system care cope with such situations and India's healthcare system has always been broken. Not saying the govt. couldn't have done better. It clearly could have. But the images you see today and the news headlines you read wouldn't have been any different, even if the govt. did do better.

India hasn't cause we have managed our differences better rather than being obsessed with "balancing". "Moreover Modi has faced the law to the highest level." - You need to do that when you have political ambitions.

" If you think Hardeep singh puri as a skilled person, I have nothing more to say to you. " Look at these statements. Each one of them is oozing of stupidity.

    1
  1979.  @azeemmirza9855  See. You are just proving my point. The people who oppose the bills are blind too. You clearly don't know what you are opposing, you just believe that these reforms were brought in to benefit businessmen. That's far from the truth. However, I agree the farmers have the right to protest. The govt.'s job is to convince them.
    1
  1980.  @azeemmirza9855  The Farm Laws haven't taken away MSP. So, I am not sure what are they exactly asking for. If it's legalised MSP that they want, that can't happen. Legalised MSP will be a death warrant for all Indian Farmers. And not all Farmers don't rely on MSP, just 6% of them do.
    1
  1981.  @navjotsidhu3811  Stop producing Rice and Wheat, especially since India doesn't need it. That's the message. Excess Rice and wheat is procured by Indian govt. which then rots in storage or is sold in the international market for a loss. Diversify to stop Punjab from turning into a desert while polluting North India by stubble burning. The price of Rs 1100 to 1200 is quiet workable. That's the price we get in Odisha as well. The current MSP is highly inflated cause any political party which comes to power increases it to get votes. Bihar is a great example. Farmers grow other products of higher value rather than sticking to rice and wheat like Farmers from Punjab do. And guess what, Punjab, once the richest state of India as come down to 16th position today, while Bihar has steadily risen. Farm growth in Punjab is below the national average while Bihar's is above average. While people compare at Bihar and Punjab of today, what they should actually do is compare what Punjab was 20 years back vs what it is today. And do the same for Bihar. Results will be clear and people will stop using Bihar's example. I have seen the numbers. Numbers don't lie. Punjab needs these reforms more than any other part of India.
    1
  1982.  @navjotsidhu3811  That's because there is no price stabilization. Price Stabilization can't work unless there is storage. And these products couldn't have been stored because of Essential Commodity Act. That's the reason why Milk is available at a fixed price through the year while Onion's vary from 20 Rs/kg to even 200 Rs/kg. I know the problems inside out because these aren't new problems. They have been going on for years. The only solution are these Reforms. And these reforms have been suggested for more than 15 years now, including to CM of Punjab (by Montek Singh Ahluwalia), only very recently.
    1
  1983.  @navjotsidhu3811  Let's leave sugarcane out of that list. That's a different beast and hasn't been addressed in these Reforms. That would need to be done later and will see similar protests. Maybe even bigger protests.

AND it's certainly no politicians business.

  2002.  @anjankoner1390  "my main point is not jeans the main point is whether men should have the control or not? " - The point is, men should NOT have a say.

That's exactly why in my previous comments I said "I don't think that will help you though, your moronic brain won't be able to take perspective into account." And my assessment was right. You didn't disappoint. Tell me, by your logic of "examples of history" , "White Males of Abrahamic faiths" are the most intelligent. Since Newton, Einstein, Lebniz, Rutherford, Bohr, Darwin etc discovered the most important scientific, political, economic and philosophical theories. Everyone else in the world is a moron.(Remember Mr. Moron, I am not saying this. This is what you are saying in a different context.) And I am no "Feminist". I am just a rational human being. But I know what would be too hard for you to differentiate.

  2006.  @BharatThatIsIndia  "By the way check the petroleum minister's speech in parliament where he boosted about 4 Lakh crores of tax from petroleum and the public was paying 100+ rs for oil. - Yes.

    1
  2007.  @BharatThatIsIndia  "Poor people suffered and Adani grew by 300%." - This sentence reveals that you are more interested in rhetoric than anything else. Great for making political statements and to justify political leanings but rarely has much in the way of policy. You can believe what you like. It would be a waste of my time to debate someone who says "By the way, if you are taxing petrol, Diesel then poor will suffer the most.". I find that statement beyond moronic.

"The court termed INCP's apprehension as "completely baseless" and dismissed the petition." "A bench of Justices Sanjiv Khanna, Dipankar Datta and Augustine George Masih said the apex court has already examined several petitions and dealt with various issues related to the functioning of EVMs." "How many petitions shall we entertain? Recently, we have dealt with a plea related to VVPAT (voter verifiable paper audit trail). We cannot go by assumptions. Every method has its plus and minus points. Sorry, we cannot entertain this under Article 32", the bench said. Don't read news selectively to suit your made up stories. Supreme Court has called these claims BS multiple times. If South Indians like you had so much of "critical reasoning" skills as you claim you would have know that loosers in the political process make such claims.

  2019.  @PseudoProphet  "UP is also going to have it's own development story by the time Yogi throws his hat in the ring for the PM chair. " - Very unlikely. I follow India's economy very closely. I see where the investments are going. I know that some good work has been done in UP but would it be enough for people to buy "UP's development story" .. I don't think so. Gujarat, for example, was growing at 14% YoY on an average from 2002 to 2014. It has been growing 12% YoY on an average from 2014 to 2023. What was UP's average growth rate under Yogi from 2017 to 2022? . 3.5% Average. With UP's low base it should grow at 20% or more for people to believe in "UP's development story". I don't see that happening in the next 6 years.

  2027.  @karanbirsingh2615  "You’re either in modi’s godi or Adani’s relative." - No sir. There are millions of Indians who aren't surving on MSP or govt. jobs or related to Adani or BJP but are still growing. You should get out more and talk to people working as IT Professional, CAs, Wealth advisors, Lawyers, Product managers etc. That will help in curing your delusion. Percentage of increase in my income is well of 10x of what I used to make in 2014 and 3x of what my wealth used to be. Contrary to the dumb but popular belief Adani didn't take birth in 2014. He was a well established businessman and a billionaire way before 2014. Most of his businesses were established and running much before 2014.

Given the current international setting and the direction in which the world is heading, China will dominate Taiwan in a conventional warfare to force it into summation in another 8 to 10 years unless something drastically changes (like Taiwan getting nukes). Chances of a Violent annexation are very low. And incase you were wondering, US isn't going to come to Taiwan's aid. It's going to sell Taiwan all the weapons Taiwan needs, but US is not going to get involved in a direct war with China over Taiwan. Taiwan isn't US's core interest. Taiwan knows this too. The viewers of this channel have a very superficial understanding of realities of the world. It's not surprising given how misinformed this Channel itself is even on the most basic facts.

The net demand will be to remove him from other portfolio he holds. The opposition will say " Do we want an incompetent minister handling other portfolios?" Your suggestion is that of a suicide.

  2054. ​ @xcoldkilla3660  " Congress didn't destroy the parties that supported it." - You need to go back and recheck Political History. Congress did exactly what you claim it never did until it couldn't anymore. Congress was extremely ruthless but BJP worked hard, survived and is not reaping the benefits (and strengthening it's power). What is Congress doing?? .. Fighting among themselves and chilling out. Well, if the opposition (or BJP's allied parties, which aren't important to BJP anymore) are unwilling to put in the hardwork to counter BJP, it's going to keep doing what it's doing. Again, it's not about money. It never was. Money just makes things easier. You are talking about nature of power. Doesn't matter who wields it, the aim of power is always to gain more power, unless some other power stops it from doing so. Btw, the same thing is playing out within Congress between the Gandhis & G23 and Geo-politically between US & China.

Everything else is exactly the same. Ask yourself this, why do Shias vote for BJP ? .. Why have Christians from Kerala starting to vote for BJP ? Because they know no one else is going to protect the minority within the minority. The "minority" obliterates everything that doesn't confirm to their worldview as soon as they gain power. Accepting minority doesn't mean giving up the right to protect and practice our own culture. UK made that mistake to promote "multiculturalism". Now they are paying the price. That's also the reason why right wing governmenta are getting voted into power in Europe. You seem to live in a make believe lalaland.

  2095. ​ @ayaan66598  "It's not ok to persecute minorities " - No minority is being persecuted in India. It's a myth spread by people who have lost political power. Why do Shias vote for BJP? .. Because they know, while people will give sermons of how persecution is wrong, no one else will protect the minority within the minority. Why was there no ashura in Kashmir before abrogation of article 370? " if they are not minority tolerant then it's wrong doesn't mean we should be one to follow the same ideology. " - Your assertion is based on an ideology too. Why is it wrong? .. Maybe that how the world works. You need to be more practical. All the cuddly ideology goes out the window when ones life and culture is attacked.

China's economic boom is over. Everything is at over capacity. Population (and working population) reached it's peak in 2013.Real Estate is collapsing under bad loans. West is slowly closing it's borders and finding alternatives to Chinese exports. The growth is only going to slowdown from here. Each of these situations is exactly opposite in India. You should read what happened to the politics in South Korea, Japan and Malaysia when their high growth period ended.

A slowdown is the same thing as an economic boom getting over. What that means is China will grow but not at the same pace as it used to. That is what literally "economic boom is over" means. " Chinese companies are often at the receiving end given general distrust of Beijing. " - That is always going to remain true. And I am happy with Chinese companies being blocked from India, especially since China doesn't allow market access to Indian companies. And before you ask the dumb question of what can India produce that China can't, the answer is Cheap Pharma Formulations. The Old Chinese pop with growing medical bill needs it. "Foreign investors just aren't sold on India - Nikkei Asia" - This is an opinion piece.

  2107.  @jmchng9662  " I sincerely doubt india can achieve what you bragged within 15 years." - I sincerely doubt you have much clue about the topic at hand. 15 year is a comfortable duration to achieve a space station and China's current per capita GDP. A 7%+ growth for the next decade is highly likely. That means achieving China's current per capita GDP in dollar terms 20 years (assuming Indian rupee doesn't strengthen, which it will. That's why I say 15 years). "Companies are reluctant to invest in India for a wide variety of reasons. This includes tax terrorism, frequent change in regulations and sometimes with retrospective effect, poor physical infrastructure, very high turnaround time at Indian ports, poor labour productivity, inspector raj, etc, etc" - You seem to be living in 2010. Wake up and smell the coffee. Or not. "cultural woes" - There are no cultural woes. The Chinese who are used to working in hierarchies like robots given instruction, think it's cultural woes cause they don't get it. The stupidest argument that is always forwarded by the Chinese is that India's growth has to be an export led growth, especially since that's how China did it.

  2108.  @jmchng9662  You must be a Singaporean Chinese. Tell me if I am wrong. Much of the moronic understanding of Singaporean Chinese comes from their own political hate for Indians in Singapore. They do believe they are a superior race. It's just that they don't say it openly. They try to say it in more subtle way exactly like you are trying to do. 1) "I had more or less the same arguments with Indian posters some 20 years ago. Almost the same kinda boasts. But where India still is now.....??" - Where is India now? .. If you think India is the same as it was 20 years back then you are dumber than I thought. And just because India didn't do as well as China doesn't mean India didn't do well. It did. The demographics of India as different. India has a longer run way. 2) "This statement is not out from my own mouth nor from any Chinese media but taken from Nikkei." - I know dumbo. I said it's an Opinion Piece, not your Opinion. Why is your English Comprehension so poor?!! .. I know it's from Nikkei, which is why I I shared some links to other articles (also recent) from Nikkei as well. 3) "btw do you think China's remarkable success story is just based on export alone" - It isn't based on export alone but export is the largest component. But you do think India's economic growth has to be export oriented which is why you keep saying "foreign companies don't want to invest in India". A large portions of FDI is usually export oriented. Isn't it? .. Hope you know that! i don't think we need to waste anymore time. We can talk again in 15 years, if you will still be alive that is.

  2109.  @therealdeal2163  "The west is closing its borders to the detriment of itself , the problem with you Indians is that you have decided to ally with the west when the west itself is collapsing" - The problem with you Chinese is you think only you know what's good for you and every other country is foolish and can't decide what's good for them. The west is closing borders to the detriment of the Chinese who have over capacity in everything. Who are you going to supply when there will be no market access. Good luck waiting for Africa and other countries to develop enough to replace the West as a market. China will be replaced as a supplier to the West by Vietnam, Bangladesh, India and Mexico. And India isn't aligned with anyone. It's looking out for it's own interest.

  2123.  @truetool  "The tech boom is because India has some very elite universities that provide world class education." - Indian Tech boom has nothing to do with the "elite universities". Mass recruiters rarely recruited from IITs or even NITs because there was no interest from the students of those colleges to work from companies like Infy, TCS etc. The bulk of the employees in IT don't come from any elite universities. Also, even if the students from IITs wanted to join the IT work force, the number of students produced by all the IITs put together was under 4000. IT Boom was fueled by recruitment of thousands from hundreds of colleges. "The contribution of English language was marginal at best, being largely confined to call centres that comprise barely 0.1% of the GDP." - Ability to interact in English was the primary reason why IT Boom happened in India, but not in China where cost of labour was equally low but quality of education was better and more broad-based.

  2125.  @truetool  It's true that Infy and TCS don't hire outside of the top 100 colleges and the bulk of Indian graduates are unemployable. But the wages keep skyrocketing because of the lack of trained engineers. If there was a dearth of graduates at entry level then entry level salaries would have sky rocketed as well. They haven't. The change in entry level salaries don't even beat inflation. "you are conflating the IT industry and call centres. Call centres form a small part of the overall IT industry." - Sir, with all due respect, you need to explain these subtlties to someone who isn't from India. I am pretty well informed on how diverse the IT industry is and I don't consider BPOs part of IT industry just because they come under the later Outsourcing umbrella. "Infosys was founded by ex-employees of Patni Computer Systems who could write software at a fraction of the cost US programmers would. " - This is a well known fact. Nothing new here. But one of reasons the "boom" happened because of the availability of English speaking population which was leveraged post Y2k when the world started viewing India with more trust and deals started flowing. Let's agree to disagree. Anymore discussion isn't going to be productive.

I was even involved, though in a limited way, with Ex-Muslims of North America. I was exposed to these topics 15 years back. The fact is, you need to read more. You need to get a cultural perspective, geopolitical perspective and various interpretations of Islam, an understanding of Global Islam being spread by Muslim Brotherhood. Your myopic view leads you to make these sweeping generalizations. "Before commenting again with your nonsense, please read the book first.

  2149.  @治强  Dude.. "less than 20k deaths" is bullsh*t only communist apologists believe. Given the number of prominent people that have died it's pretty clear that the number is much higher than "20k". But the "calculative" govt of yours is doing what it does best. It's hiding numbers. As per some estimates, 14k people are dying each day. Zero Covid policy wasn't cancelled due to "scientific study". That's another bullsh*t. It was cancelled cause Mr. PepaPig(Xi) was worried about the growing protests. If CCP was so scientific it would have allowed vaccines from other countries with better efficacy, not Sh*tty sinovac with 30% efficacy. So, you may go back to the closed Chinese internet and spread the crappy propaganda there. I don't think anyone here has patience for it. Btw, covid still hasn't peak in China. That will happen around March. Thanks to your "scientific" government, the country is suffering from peak Covid 2 years after other countries have.

The West are rich countries constructed, in case of erurope, one the basis of one language-one religion-one enemy, and in case of north america by wiping out entire indegeous populations and install a more homogneous population. The europe was all very liberal until migrant population reached 5%. Now europeans are voting in right wing governments. Liberalism is going out the window. What would they do if they were as diverse and poor as India? On the other hand, there are no electoral democracies at India's per capita.

Question is why the uneasy relationship with India and all it's neighbours, with some there more issues, with others are less, but there is a general tendency." - The reason isn't internal to India. The reason is change in the geopolitical situation. The nationalist politics of neighboring countries is natural to take an anti-India stance given the overwhelming power differential. In Nepal it's Oli that's Anti-India. In Bangladesh it's BNP. And in Maldives it's Muizzu's party PNC. Both in Bangladesh and Maldives the anti-India parties have a pro-Islamist/jamat bent. And in Nepal anti-India are pro-China/communist parties. In each of these countries, the other side is Pro-India. The difference is, previously, China wasn't a real option for the anti-India parties. More recently, the changes in Geopolitics and increase in China's economic and diplomatic abilities has given anti-India parties an option which wasn't available before. That's the reason US has started showing interest in these countries as well. US established an embassy in Male in 2023. US had high profile visits to Nepal and joint exercises with the Nepali Army.

Trains that Cruise and Ships that Ride, and now US have been in a State of Panic for many Years in trying to stop China but it’s too late. " - Not really. Almost every country in the world made a transition from a centralized dictatorship to a democracy when their growth rates slowed down. The shock of slow growth after having experienced 10%+ growth for years isn't easy to handle politically. Brittle systems with no flexibility break in such scenarios, especially when there is external pressure. China has over-capacity in everything. Those things have to be shutdown as more manufacturing shifts to other countries. The question is will Chinese system able to handle that pressure or will it break ? .. Unlike democratic systems where the political parties and the people in power change, the bureaucracy, military, govt's at local levels and courts keep functioning. That's not the case in China. If CCP goes it takes down the bureaucracy and PLA with it. In Opaque systems no one really knows until the last moment. Until then the Chinese can keep listening to bought and paid morons like Jayant Bhadari and be happy comparing the present day India and China without comprehending the simple argument that when the west talks about India it talks in future tense and hence stupid questions like "What do you see around you that is made in India?" doesn't apply.

Keep living in that delusion and keep talking about "Geo-economics" without having any diplomatic relations with your most important neighbor. I wish you good luck.

Terrorism coming from Pakistan is the only thing that India will talk about. Period. Anyone in Pakistan interested in Ifs, buts and conditionalities can stew in economic soup that they find themselves in for as long as they want. Pakistan doesn't have anything that India needs. India is not in an hurry. "P.S.

Higher Interest rates on instruments which carry no risk are like sugar, tastes sweet in the short run, makes you diabetic and kills you in the long run. And who do you think funds the higher interest rates? .. Another section of people (who also make the economy).
    1
  2179.  @sandrosadhukhan  "Many countries in the west have welfare for people." - True. But they are that after having made their wealth not before. And Higher Savings rate isn't "welfare". "you can try and justify capitalist speak, doesn't mean it's more than an opinion. " - That's just basic economics backed by years of data actually. And I don't think someone who didn't get it after 30 years of communist policies turned WB into the sh*th*le that it is today, would get it now. "A few lobbyist business men don't make up the country." - Neither do ideologically bent individuals who reject all that doesn't fit their ideology.

  2182.  @abduljaleel4467  "But with out the backing of Gandhi family or the congress ideology there would have been no way he would become prime minister" - Absolutely. No disagreement there. But that doesn't change the fact that India accepted him as the PM of India. Would they have accepted Owasi even with the backing of the Gandhi family? .. I think not. India sees a community which puts India first differently from a community that puts their religion first over nationality. "his achievements he was far far better Modi" - That is plain delusion of the highest order.

Many Indians knows what needs to be done to get explosive growth just like China did but the same policies can't be applied in India without facing huge Political Backlash. Which is why govts. stay away from it. The recent Farm Laws, Labour Reforms and Privatisation of PSUs are fresh and apt examples.

Can you tell me why do you think it's not prudent to sell profit making PSUs ?

  2192. The same reason why the meaning of the slogan "From the land to the sea" was not asked. Let's not pretend that the Muslim community around the world wants anything other than Israel to cease to exist. If you want honest questions to be asked, start by being honest yourself.
    1
  2193.  @JavedKhan-nn4rd  "Let me tell you then a genocide is genocide no matter where." - Yes offcourse. My question was why does the community care about one genocide and not the other? .. That shows the intent of whatever forces are driving the community to care about one but not the other. "No do you agree that the annexation of cremia and war on ukrain by Russia is equal to that of Israel illegal occupation of Palestine and the war on Gaza(actually it’s even worse) in the pretense of self defence ??" - I find it very hard to comment on Russia's actions. If you understand how geo-politics and the power game works then Russia's actions are quiet justified. Any country/power in Russia's position would have done the same. But when you look at it from a humanitarian perspective, then it obviously is wrong. There are no easy answers here. As for illegal settlements in Gaza, I don't support that either, but I do find the Muslim community highly obsessed with what happens in Palestine (and only palestine) so much so that they are unwillingly to look at anything that was done from their side and how actions outside of Israel-Palentine conflict contribute to perceptions of Islam. "The clock didn’t start on October the 7th it was ticking way way before do you agree ??" - Yes it was. Israel and Palestine conflict is a long and complicated one. But 7th Oct did happen and that wasn't "self-defense" either as many people claim.

  2201.  @Rajeshrranu  Dude .. your understanding of everything you have said is super flawed and factually wrong.

Btw, what do you do for a living?
    1
  2202.  @Rajeshrranu  I wouldn't mind if you said it as long as that's how you feel rather than saying it to score a point on social media. In my opinion, all govt. entities should be privatised, barring a few operating in sensitive areas, irrespective of whether it not they are profit making. GoI doesn't need to mine Coal, generate electricity, manufacture Steel etc. All it needs to do is to Govern. So, I would welcome privatisation efforts from any party in power. Govt. running a business is a huge burden on the citizens. Similarly, I would also welcome the changes that have been made to the Farm Laws, Labour Laws etc. And I would welcome if similar changes are being made to Land Acquisition Act. If in the process, the party doing it favours certain business groups over others, I don't mind. It makes no difference to the process of privatisation. The citizenry at large gains from the process. And that's all that matters.

  2203.  @Rajeshrranu  I am going to repeat what I had said before. Flawed understanding and factually inaccurate. You are asking all the wrong questions.

  2253.  @suhashg8664  "every Karnataka government supported Business." - That's delusion. Karnataka is karnataka because a few Kannadigas decided that Bangalore is going to be the center of their business. The govt., both at the center and the state, didn't regulate them because they didn't understand that these businesses had huge potential. Businesses grew while the government slept. And then they became big enough and important enough that their inputs were taken seriously and implemented at the central level. If "every" government supported business, Bangalore's conditions would have been better. If not anything the Metro would have been a reality by 2010. So, don't give credit where it is not due. Karnataka government has nothing to do with Bangalore's growth.

  2254.  @suhashg8664  "then y the business chose our Bengaluru instead of other cities" - Availability of Talent. The first few companies like Infy chose it cause they were Kannadigas. Infy chose Mysuru as it's training hub for the same reason. As city attracted talent, other service based companies came to Bengaluru (TCS initially started in Pune, later shifted to Bengaluru). Availibity of talent led to startups and that led to attracting more talent. Similarly Chennai became the Saas capital of India because Zoho started there. Government has nothing to do with Bengaluru's growth.

  2259.  @lilavall4735  "American have been a very giving country to the world, still we are hated in many parts of the world." - Two reasons for that, (1) America has also been the country which has coerced and toppled govts, killed civilians, declared the most number of wars. You really need to see America from other's perspective. (2) Because hate is a byproduct of being a superpower. People would hate America even if it didn't do any of the things that I have previously mentioned.

  2265.  @Trash-hc5uk  "She relinquished her former identity and now serves a foreign country. " - Like thousands of Indians who leave India for a better opportunity abroad. Nothing special here. "Both her husband and mother-in-law sacrificed their lives for the nation." - Not really. Both were assassinated because they were mucking around with forces they couldn't control. One played around with Tamil Nationalism and the other one with Khalistanis. "Whether or not you choose to show respect is your decision, but at the very least, refrain from speaking ill of her." - I am speaking facts. Just because you are cum drunk and in blind love with a family doesn't mean everyone in India needs to blindly respect them. The BS narrative that Congress Bhakts push needs to be called out. You morons completely forget and whitewash everything that Congress has done wrong.

  2266.  @Trash-hc5uk  Leaving the home country, her husband or mother-in-law being assassinated or her not amassing wealth(which is a lie, they are amassing wealth.

  2282. Three very wrong assumptions in your argument. 1. The TV debates you refer to and lament about are a very recent phenomenon of Indian TV. Kargil was the first televised war and Godhra riots were the first televised riots. So, basically there was nothing on TV before 2000. 2. TV debates never "kept the govt. of the day on check". If that was true, 2G scam, Coal scam and the rest would never have happened. 3. You are comparing a period when one party was in the govt. with coalition and the opposition was very strong v/s a time when one party has a majority with very weak opposition. The situation is very different. If the opposition was strong enough, there would still be debates on TV. Unfortunately, Rahul Gandhi sleeps for 3.5 years out of 5 years. Wakes up 1.5 years before for a yatra and then believes he deserves to win because he worked just before the election.

"Autopilot is for example similar to AI/automation, doesn't mean you don't need a pilot to fly a plane. However advanced AI becomes it cannot replace the experience and the intelligence of a human being, that's why drones are controlled by a human person." - This shows how flawed your understanding is. AI can and will replace experience P.S: I work in Machine Learning. "You just said AI will replace radiologists. But you need a radiologist to read the reports." - This statement makes no sense btw. What do you think a radiologist does ?

No one has stopped them. printing money leads to only one thing: Inflation. The West has the GDP that it does because of brands, innovation and knowledge produced from R&D. The West eats the lion share of value creation in every value chain. There only three OS on computers, two are owned by US companies and the third one's (Linux) enterprise edition is owned by Red Hat, again in the US. There are only two operating systems on phones, both owned by US companies. There are only two card payment facilitator that operate world wide, Visa and Mastercard, both US companies. The entire Social media (except Tiktok), advertising, search etc are all US companies. If someone wants to buy planes, there are only two companies: Airbus & Boeing, both in the west. US owns the GPS. There are tons of other examples. You don't understand what the West is and the power it wields.

What purpose does the comparison serve exactly?? And is it that pointing this out is being perceived as being defensive?? "And for comparing Bangladesh with Singapore, I'm sure someone is doing that already " - Well, that person is either extremely stupid or drunk with hubris.

  2357. The laws are based on Data and sound Economic Logic. Stop making everything about "someone else" bcs you don't understand the implications of the reform.

    1
  2358.  @sharanjeetgrewal1274  Sirji, you seem to have a lot of misinformation. Every Farmer is NOT benefitted by MSP. Only 6% of all farmers do. Don't compare Bihar & Punjab today. Compare what they were 15 years back vs today. Punjab used to be the richest state of India, today it's 16th on the list. What happened ??..Punjab's agricultural growth is below India's average and Bihar's is above. Bihar is doing much better than Punjab in terms of growth. You seem to have a very wrong picture. For contrast, look at MP vs Punjab. MP produces more wheat than Punjab. It is integrated into the Agri supply chain. The Farmers from MP produce Sharbati Wheat which is in high demand and is procured by ITC to produce Ashirvad Atta. Punjab's farmers are left behind bcs of their reliance on MSP regime. As for Contract Farming, you have misunderstood the framework. The current framework that has been suggested was first implemented, guess what, by Punjab in 2013. Central govt. has just copied the same thing. Under that Framework, Farmer has zero liabilities and no scope of loosing his land. What you are talking about isn't what contract farming is. Your apprehensions are based on imagined facts. None of what you have said is going to happen.

  2371.  @gaurav9411  There are tons of examples. But the blind can't see it. Mohalla Clinics are one. Private Investment into vaccine developing facility has made Vaccines cheaper which is why every vaccine producer wants to manufacture it in India cause of world has to get vaccinated it has to be manufactured in India. All mostly through private investment. Btw.. Privatisation doesn't just mean letting private organisations run their own school. Whatever budget govt. spends on education, if it spent the same amount through Opex private contracts, primary education in India would have been in much better condition.
    1
  2372.  @gaurav9411  Privatisation doesn't mean something has to be run by a "private company". Mohalla clinics are paid for by Delhi govt. where private players i.e. doctors who aren't govt. employees get paid per patient. Aadhar registration was also done through private players on an Opex Model. That's why Aadhar was a success at the scale at which it was implemented. Had it been done like voter iD is done using govt. employees it would have taken ages to happen and with 6% or more errors as is te case for Voter ID card There are tons of different models for privatisation.

How about Govt. not own anything and when Indians are stuck somewhere, then govt. sends a directive to the private palyer asking him to do what the govt. would have done and pay the private player for the incurred expense. US, UK, Japan, Australian etc. Govt. don't own any airlines. Do you think they can't evacuate their citizens in case they are stuck somewhere?? People cry all the time about rising Oil prices because govt. is charging heavy taxes. At the same time they want govt. to keep doing things (like owning PSUs like Air India) which drain taxes. Then the same people cry some more about money not being spent on Health and Education. This dual personality is something that I don't get.

This will be harder to do as compared to critiquing Salman Khan's movie. One will need to understand India's problems, find the proposed solutions, understand who the stake holders are and where the vested interests might lie. The "responsible citizens" however don't usually do that. They get up from their slumber, read two articles and start sharing hashtags and acting like experts with deep understanding of structural problems. The politicians are just as good as the collective citizenry.

  2387.  @AnuragKumar-mn7zu  " It has been almost 73 years since independence and still election after election politicians promise the same thing - remove poverty, elevate the lower class, provide clean drinking water, provide electricity.And when you hold them accountable they'll say - Bhaiya ye to jumla hai election jeetne ke liye." - That's accurate. Cause the general public, even educated people like you don't understand that these are all symptoms of structural problems which can't be solved overnight. People don't understand how difficult it is to implement policy changes. So, what do you do? .. You tell people what they want to hear and keep working towards the solution. The best example in recent time is the opposition to Farm Reforms. Everyone wants Farm incomes to increase, farmer suicides to stop but no one wants Economic reforms which will make that happen. Having said that, India has pulled 200 million people out of poverty, India has it's electricity generation and distribution capacity and it reaches very high percentage of citizens today. Clean water from taps, is being worked on, has made great progress. Imagine your own life 20 years back and today. You will see the difference. That didn't come because the politicians didn't work. They did, along with many other stake holders, to make it happen. You lack appreciation cause you lack understanding of the scale of the problem and the tools you have to solve it.

See how TCS,Infosys,Wipro employs and delivers result , in total they employ almost 10 lakh employees." - Why would someone compare for-profit organisations who are incentivised to be efficient with Bureaucracies which aren't? ..Btw, politicians have jackshit to do with Govt. Exams. Also, if you use the same argument to privatise PSUs, public always pushes back. "Inflation is all time high" - Which Weed are you smoking, son? .. Inflation has been 4% on an average for years now. Please don't talk about inflation in short term. that's like measuring someone's heartrate after then have run a sprint and saying the heartrate must always be 120 bpm. "We have now maximum unemployment rate in the history of this country." - Thanks to collapsing Credit growth and FRBM Act requiring to maintain a fiscal deficit percentage. But why would you care to know about that?? .. As long as you can rant and it makes to look "woke", does it really matter if you understand the problem?,, right? Can't help someone who can't see any change in India over last 20 years. Economists won't be able to stop laughing at someone like that. Don't throw-up random stats when you don't really understand how they work. "It is the lack of will of these politicians to do anything substantial. " - no. It's the inability of citizens to understand what substantial means and how it can be achieved. Ranting doesn't achieve much, that's for sure. "In Human Development Index India ranks 131 out of 200 counties. " - Make comparisons. Not absolute statements. What was India's HDI before? And India is a vast country with HDI varying drastically. "Raise your voice,ask the politicians to implement everything mentioned in their manifesto,if they can't then it should not be promised" - Congress promised the same farm reforms today that it promised in it's 2019 Manifesto and the citizens love it. What does that say about the citizens of India? ""Since last 73 years we voted for caste/religion" - Jokes on us, the citizens. Politicians are reflection of the citizenry at large. "Most of these scums are even less literate compared to a watchman." - They don't need to be educated. They are public representatives, their job is consensus building. "More than 35% of politicans have heinous crime under their belt. 70% of them have been convicted." - That's why India needs political Reforms.

  2392.  @sreekr  I am not sure which military reports you are reading but US is ages ahead of Chinese military with respect to military tech and capability by every possible measurement, and is going to remain so for considerable number of years. You need to understand that 'investing heavily' doesn't automatically lead to military tech superiority or even fasten the process just like more water and fertilizer doesn't make a plant grow in a day. Everything has a process and one needs to go through that to achieve it. That is the reason why China still buys jet engines from Russia, cause it can't make a decent one itself even after 30 years of research, and a simple US policy blocking Chinese access to high speed chips impedes their military capabilities. You overestimate China and seriously underestimate the US, as many people do. The only real superpower today and for foreseeable Future is the US.
    1
  2393.  @sreekr  Well, Firstly the comparison was with US and China in military capabilities. Whether or not Chinese citizens will have better lives and whether India will be able to provide decent health care to it's citizens wasn't the topic of discussion. About US worries, advances in software (like AI) can easily be achieved. Hardware is where research takes time. And when US says it's not ready to compete, it means in China's back yard. The South China Sea, not even the second island chain, let alone the third Island Chain. But having said that, your understanding of Economics seems patchy. You seem to believe China is going to achieve all these great things while India can't. Sure, Chinese citizens will have decent lifestyles but so will Indian Citizens. China's economy needs domestic consumption to increase to be able to sustain it's Economic growth because it's export led growth has reached its limits and is only going to reduce from here on out. Not only is it's demographic collapsing but also the current generation don't spend much cause there is no social security. So, China being able to depend on it's own economy for consumption is really doubtful. India, on the other hand, has been a consumption led economy from the very start. India's growth is more sustainable. India will keep growing much after 2050, as well, while China's growth will most likely slowdown. What is China going to do when CCP's legitimacy doesn't come from economic growth as before?.. What will China do to service the huge debt it has amassed to boost it's economy leading to creation of Ghost Cities and infra which no one uses ?? .. What if EU & US diversify out of China, what will China do with it's over capacity? These are some questions which show the problems with the Chinese Economy and it's future prospects of growth. People rarely realise India is exactly where China was 15 years back and will be exactly where China is today 15 years from now. It will take, however, take a huge political will to implement Economic reforms regularly. If the right reforms are attempted, then it's quiet likely that India will surpass China as world's largest Economy sometime in the next 30 years.

  2394.  @sreekr  "Economic growth, military capabilities, standard of living are all linked." - Not necessarily. "The ability of China to deal with the pandemic and carry on with economic growth" - Dude, they have an autocratic govt. They are supposed to control the pandemic better than democracies. If they can't even do that, what's the use of centrally concentrating all the power? " india failing with the pandemic control resulting in more damages to our economy and international standing has been playing out for weeks now." - I agree. India's Economy has been damaged (structural story remains intact though) and the International standing has slide lower, but we are talking about decades, not weeks. Being myopic to look at the current situation doesn't suit well to long term strategic views. " the presence of an ever increasing number of people reflecting a country's power does not hold up now and will play a decreasing role in the future. " - Probably not. But it has benefits which an artificially controlled population doesn't. And I think you are discounting those benefits a little too much because of advances in technology. "Have been hearing of the end of China's export led growth for a decade and more. Haven't seen any signs though." - The signs are pretty clear. And have been so for quiet sometime. I am not sure how you don't see it. "Had seen videos of China's ghost cities and then also later saw the same ones after being occupied." - The current size of China's unoccupied housing capacity is 200 million. That's how many people those empty buildings can house. Which are the ones you saw getting occupied? "I am sure there are lot of issues with china and the opaque nature of it governance hiding possible ills till they burst out. But at the moment they are going strong." - These are contradictory statements though. You can their opaque nature hides possible ills they they burst out. And at the same time you are sure they are going strong. How do you even know that since they are so opaque? You seem to give A+ to China with all their problems which are much bigger in size when compared to India. You seem to be convinced Chinese Economy will keep growing and Chinese will have better social infrastructure cause they will be able to afford it. And somehow China will be able to do it but India won't. You are overestimating the China, both wrt to India and US alike.

  2395. Frankly, China's global ambitions of becoming a world power isn't going to manifest until it establishes supremacy in the Asian region. It can't do that without dealing with India. While it's core goals are Taiwan, SCS and hence the US, as it controls the island chains, India stands in the way of Chinese ambitions, which itself has a limited timeframe under which it needs to be achieved. If China doesn't do enough by 2035 or if India does enough by then, China can kiss it's dreams good bye.

  2396.  @tat3179  I hate to break it to you, but China is nowhere close to being a military superpower. There is only one military superpower and that is USA. The difference between the two is so large that with all it's military build up, China will only be able to catch up to US sometime after 2050. That is the truth. As for being a economic global power, there is no denying that. But China has overcapacity in production as it produces for the world, not for it's own consumption, which is at most 2 Trillion Dollar in size as compared to 12 Trillion Dollar for US and Europe each(I am talking about the market size, not economy). One needs to ask, what happens if US and Europe find an alternative to China? .. Who is China going to sell to then? And as for "ganging up" on China, China brought it on itself but claiming everything by coming up with a lame logic of "it has been a part of china since ancient times". And India is looking after it's own interest by making sure it has enough to deter China (which it can even now), with spending as little on military as possible. So, it's finding allies which can help it do the same. If you say India doesn't matter for China, then that makes me comfortable. Ignore India. That makes our life easier. India doesn't want to get into any military conflict unless absolutely necessary.

  2406.  @AnishurRahman-vn7cz  "Economy of China is going downhill too fast, all international companies are leaving and no new investment coming in" - None of this is happening because China is not a democracy. Economies slowdown after seeing high growth rates. Has happened to every other economy.

  2410.  @sankalp6872  I recently saw Chidambaram's interview. He is still repeating the same arguments like a broken record. It's not just RG, I don't think they get it as a lot. I don't see a future for Congress, especially if it doesn't win in Himanchal.

  2411.  @amiteshsharma1415  It's not what the BJP want, you moron.It's about the hypocrisy of Rahul who calls IUML "nothing non-secular" but calls BJP as "communal". Can't have it both ways. The astounding stupidity of Congress Bhakts is ever surprising. Can't even make a simple critical argument without going off topic. No wonder someone like Rahul impresses you.

  2413.  @Nimrloy977  Congress Bhakts would love to believe that. That isn't true though. And Bhakts by definition can't be "factual". They actively avoid facts to be bhakts of a party.

  2419.  @supergroovy8346  "hen the citizens see the government as the problem, they will also see Indian government as part of the problem. So the nation voted against corruption." - That's fine. That's what being a democracy is like. Honestly, this recent incident is a temporary hiccup that is unlikely to derail India-maldives relations. The problems are happening because the world is in a geopolitical transition and asia is the arena. A lot of turbulent times ahead.
