Problem is not talent or demand perhaps It is the compliance maze, state level friction and a policy system that rewards capital heavy sectors over the ones that absorb people. The sectors India needs most for mass employment are the exact ones being slowly starved by its own policy design If it ha...

Immigration reforms are an issue that resonates with the middle and lower-middle class. Democrats' strongholds are cities that require workers at all levels. I used to think the same but things have changed in the last 10-15 or so years. Every farming town in Illinois, Iowa, and Wisconsin is filled...

On Tulsi G's exit, one needs to understand the Deep State of the US. Previously the US had jokers like Clapper who made the institute a complete arm of the Deep State of the US.

Whatever happened to our dear Cyberphysical CRamS?

What India needs to do is not to reinvent the wheel, but return to the core concept of its founding tradition – strategic autonomy. In a world where we have so many of our strategic interests, needs, and aspirations are not bound by national boundaries, why is it not better to practice strategic su...

how about India simply keeping her head down, and concentrate riding out this geopolitical storm, which is what she is doing anyway

India is on her own, like always, and all the rest of the cheerleaders are in it for the chai and samosas

Well said.

Long term, Atmanirbhar Bharat of Energy will have to occur. Solar, battery and ethanol will have to ramped up. Ethanol, just like in Brazil and Solar by law, ie everyone should be forced to deploy.

Sigh. When did the GOP become "the Party of Trump"? Does this mean that all registered Republicans, those independents who voted for Republican party candidates even once, and Democrats who are moderate, are all racist? That is how HiC snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. Ever since ...

IN the short term, it looks like we are screwed if the oil does not flow freely by the end of June. We have miscalculated the global dynamics and did not prepare ourselves for this eventuality.

Is Arjun even in the battle plans? I though it was a boutique project with less than 150 units built and done with. If this Ranjeet is not a MBT and Arjun and T90 still fills that role, we have T90/Arjun for MBT, T72/Ranjeet for middle weight tank? and Zorawar as a light tank? It just seems too many...

It is the 'Transportable by C-17' that makes me ponder. I wonder what our next heavy lifter will be. This 'heavy hitter' should be portable with that 'heavy lifter'...

I don’t know why they do it or what compels them, but some of our IAF boys always wax poetic lines about every foreign maal in their inventory like it’s the greatest thing since sliced bread.

Earth will always live on and there will be life that gets adjusts to new reality and thrive no matter what the climate does. No body is worried or even countering about that aspect.

Its worse than that. They emptied the coffers for their lame duck initiatives like Woke themes, Immigration and so on.
