Re: Indian Economy News & Discussion - Nov 27 2017
Not an economist or somebody claim to know anything about economics. No where else to ask as well. Why is our collective obsession with GDP growth? Developed countries had a significant advancement of their HDI before their explosive growth. Even in India states with better HDI have a better economy...

Re: Indian Health Care Sector
Shivji, With due respect to your experience, while scrapping MCI & bringing in NMC is a welcome move, the bridge course for alternate medicine will be disastrous for medical care. Have you seen any of these of homeopathy or other colleges - to call them a medical college is an insult to homeopat...

Re: Indian Health Care Sector
Again an ingenious way of dumbing down a science subject. If Ayush doctors want to practice allopathy why read alternate medicine in first place? Why there has to be NEET for MBBS alone? If you think the private medical colleges are bad the Ayush colleges (both Govt & Pvt) are significantly wors...

Re: Indian Health Care Sector
The equivalent of AYUSH practitioners are already practicing and prescribing medicine. In fact many of them are highly paid and sought after even in urban areas. Of course, some of them are no better than faith healers who prey on people's hopes for a cure. I think best way out would be to have the...
