India had wise leaders like Minoo Masani of the The Swatantra Party who saw where India being led by Nehru/Congress government with Soviet type central planning and license raj. Unfortunately Indians did not realize his wisdom or else we would have really been a superpower today!

Govt officers intentionally delay things so they can extort bribes from desperate folk. They are a parasitic class...

When a Chinese understands Indian economy better than most Indian & Indian Babus & experts. Only thing our Babu&Netas mastered is Copium to escape reality. But how long can we escape reality when even BD is crossing India with labour intensive garments manufacturing exports??
But resilience is not the same as industrial strength. India is less exposed to global trade shocks partly because it never built the export-oriented manufacturing base that China and Korea built. That is not a success story. It is also a development constraint. A large population does not automatically mean a deep market. With per capita income around $3,000 and deep inequality, India’s home market cannot sustain mass industrial upgrading on its own. This is why Rajiv Kumar, former Vice Chairman of NITI Aayog, makes the sharper point: India’s long-standing export pessimism has kept manufacturing stagnant, weakened labour-intensive sectors like garments and leather, and turned “domestic demand” into an excuse for avoiding global competition.

Dear common citizens, Avoid foreign travel, don't buy gold, use ethanol, and please car pool. Let's save some foreign exchange so that our ministers, judges and lawyers can enjoy a badminton tournament in London. Let's do it for the nation 💪

When a US submarine put two torpedoes into IRIS Dena in March, just 20 nautical miles off Galle in Sri Lanka, merely days after the ship had been our guest at the International Fleet Review in Visakhapatnam, the IT selliyas swarmed anyone who asked why Delhi was silent. "The ship shouldn't have ventured out during a war", "It was international waters, India's EEZ ends at 200 nm", "Why was it heading towards Lanka anyway", "It was a US-sanctioned vessel since 2023, so fair game", "Not our war, why burn capital with Washington over an Iranian frigate". 87 bodies came out of the water and our official position was barely a shrug. Three months later the same navy is putting missiles into commercial tankers crewed by Indians. Settebello off Oman, three of our sailors dead, the chief engineer still missing. Jalveer the very next day, crew evacuated off a burning ship, and this time our own MEA is saying on record the US Navy did it. Our escalation ladder has gone from silence to summoning a Chargé d'Affaires. At every step the apologists found a technicality, and at every step the price of finally standing up went higher. 56 inch rhetoric works at a rally. At sea everyone can now see the red lines were never real.
As US Navy is hunting down one vessel after another with Indian crew members, it is time to realise why people like me objected to GoI's lame reaction to US Navy's aggressive moves through our EEZ around Lakshadweep and sinking of Iranian naval vessel IRIS Dena in Indian Ocean. Those who argued at that time that Indian Ocean in not Indian should be ashamed of themselves. You allow a robber to rob in your neighborhood, your house could be the next one.

Fucking hilarious!
Insane. If you look up critics of neoliberalism on Google or any LLM, Slobodian will always be on the top of the list. Now that Slobodian's entire bibliography is getting outed as hackish, lefties have abandoned him as a... get this... *neoliberal*

The paddy and wetland conservation act must be scrapped...
Ministry of Agriculture blocked a 21-acre township in Thrissur for 12 years citing that IT parks should be located proximate to airports (which already have height limits). This place is located right on the highway just 40 km from Cochin Airport. youtu.be/N7XXeLw4xLw?si=3krQ…

There is a reason why the Modi government very often tries to use laws like UAPA that allow keeping people in jail without trial and bail. Because the moment they go to trial, the fake cases get thrown out ED and such govt agencies should be punished for malicious prosecution
The Delhi High Court has quashed EOW's FIR as well as Enforcement Directorate (ED) ECIR against news portal NewsClick and its editor-in-Chief Prabir Purkayastha registered over allegations of foreign funding. Read more: zurl.co/ct2ir #DelhiHighCourt #NewsClick #PrabirPurkayastha

This extended thread by @PhilWMagness is important in at least a couple of contexts. First, it shows how academic malpractice, this time from Quinn Slobodian, gets done (and one way to confront and debunk it). Second, it shares deep truths about the actual work of Ludwig von Mises, one of the great cosmopolitan liberals of the past century. Mises was so far ahead of his time in terms of race and gender it's still staggering--and particularly offensive to see him slandered as a racialist.
If a historian on the right abused evidence in this way, they'd face career ruination. When Boston University's Quinn Slobodian does it, he gets a Guggenheim fellowship, book awards, and a Hewlett Foundation grant. Academia's rot runs far deeper than a simple crisis of rigor.

'was disabled' by what? Zeus's thunderbolt? 56 inches coward is afraid to even name the country that attacked the ship Where are all the Moditards hiding now?
Replying to @sidhant
India stance on MT Marivex: The ship MT Marivex was disabled off the coast of Oman. We have learnt that it is a Palau flagged vessel. We also understand that there was some exchange of communication between the ship and the US Navy before the incident. There were 24 crew members onboard the ship, all being Indian nationals. All of them have been rescued. Our Embassy coordinated with the Omani authorities for their rescue. We thank the Oman government for their support in rescuing the crew and ensuring their safety. Our Mission continues to be in touch with the seafarers.

Telangana CM Revant reddy gave a speech two days ago that he is not competing with other states in India, but competing with China and Japan. This is Hyderabad after a bit of rain. Absolutely disgraceful state of affairs...

Watch | #Teachers at a polytechnic college in Dehradun have alleged that a police sub-inspector, accompanied by four others, forcibly entered the examination control office, vandalised property and threatened staff members. The incident occurred a day after his son was caught cheating during a final-year civil #engineering examination.

Thank Vishwanathan Anand for that...
India's chess rise is one of the great sports stories of our era, backed by Adani, celebrated by PM Modi, embraced by cricket stars and the whole culture. That's what national belief looks like. American chess has the talent to compete at that level. What we need now is that same support behind our next generation. 🇺🇸

As libertarians we believe in greater decentralisation and that involves lion's share of control and tax revenue being devoluted to state and local govts but this is pretty ironic coming from Revant Reddy who has to salute Sonia before he can even drink water in the morning...

Blinkit and Zepto are private players while firefighting services are handled by the government. Blinkit started ambulances too to reach within 10 mins. You can't expect the govt monkeys to do anything efficiently Privatize everything!
This country has built a faster system for snacks than for saving human lives. >Blinkit: groceries in 10 minutes. 😎 >Zepto: groceries in 12 minutes. 😎 >Fire brigade: 50-60 minutes. 🤡 Fire tenders took 50-60 min to reach a hotel fire where 21 people died, despite the nearest fire station being just “3 minutes” away.
