The BJP government led by Prime Minister Modi is very hesitant to release any data in the public domain that would affect the perceptions that have been created by them. More so, when the economy is on the backfoot, rising prices, all time high unemployment and a global recession staring in the face. In this episode I discuss some of the disturbing facts that we should be worried about.
The TRS has a lot to showcase in Telangana. The state has progressed significantly in the last eight years. The BJP is again on the wrong foot in trying to target the TRS. BJP does not have a face in Telangana, and neither any specific agenda. All it can do is to try to polarize the society. Yet, Hyderabad remains too far away from Delhi.
Here is one more interesting informational video in the hype vs reality series. And when we talk of hype, no one can do it better than the BJP.
The oft rumored, ‘prachand’ mandate of the BJP withers down when we look at the data behind the hype.
Go through this episode and decide for yourself.
With the Presidential and Vice Presidential elections just around the corner, BJP is getting into action.
In spite of having a majority in the electoral college, the party appears worried. Its their own allies that are giving the BJP bosses sleepless nights.
Last month, in a parliamentary committee meeting, Home Minister Amit Shah said that people in India should communicate in Hindi instead of English. An unnecessary comment which ignited a war of words between the Hindi chauvinists of the north and the anti Hindi brigade of the South.
I bring out some interesting data about our Indian languages. Decide for yourself whether English can ever be replaced.
Karnataka is being let down by the politicians. It’s rather painful to see, the once upon a time India’s premier state, going down since it appears to be in the wrong hands.
The next assembly elections in Karnataka are due in may 2023.
If the BJP does not carry out a course correction, it could well see Karnataka slipping our of it’s hands.
But then, as they say, one year is a longtime in politics.
Corruption perception index of India has not changed much of the years, rather the situation appears tp be worsening. State level corruption remains unabated.
ONDC – Open Network for Digital Commerce. India’s answer to the dominance of e-commerce marketplaces of Amazon and Flipkart. A government of India initiative being designed by none other than Nandan Nilekani. The pilot project is going to launched very soon.
It is the right time to enter the e-retailing market in India.
Our health insurance sector is in shambles. Even toady, 40% of Indians have no protection against catastrophic health illness. Successive governments have failed miserably and after 2014 things have become worse, according to NITI Aayog. 7% of our citizens from the lower strata are pushed below the poverty line each year.
I present some interesting data taken from the government.
KTR threatened to cut power and water supplies to the Army in Secunderabad. A harsh statement, but there is a lot that goes behind this statement. For years the local military authorities have been troubling the citizens by blocking public roads without following the laid down legal procedures. The Secunderabad Cantonment Board is heavily tilted in favour of the Army so it cannot act independently. The Army officers are least inclined or capable to run a municipal corporation.
Pankaj Sethi, a Secunderabad based researcher, takes you through the amazing truth behind this story.
