In my opinion every service has a cost and must have a charge even it is a very tiny amount including cheque books.

Supratik

In my opinion NS is not thinking through on these issues. NEFT and MDR charges should not have been withdrawn. These are sources of legitimate income for financial institutions. One can bring it down to a minimum if govt thinks it is too high but eliminating it does not make sense to me. The cost of...

Was just looking at export to GDP ratio of various countries. Germany and Korea are about 45%. China and India about 20%. So enormous scope for catching up with the front runners.

R Jaggi on land and labor reforms. Strongly disagree on both counts. Here is why. Labor 1) India still has a window of 20 years where wage arbitrage can be used to carry out low to medium end manufacturing. 2) Why have a caste system in labor? 3) Why not have an uniform system that gives all labor r...

Without a good CM face they will loose Delhi. It is most likely going to be hung assembly and Kejriwal is going to come back as CM with Cong support.

Supratik

It seems BJP has no idea who its CM face will be in Delhi. Kejriwal is no longer at the peak of his popularity. A good CM candidate would have won the state. Now it is a toss-up. The media has already started its anti-BJP campaign around CAA-NRC and the economy to appeal to the urban Delhi voters.

Supratik

Yeddi's was a special case as he was removed from office and Fadnavis actually won. Shivraj may get a look in as he won 3 consecutive terms and lost narrowly (won in terms of votes obtained).

Supratik

Yes people are voting differently in national and state elections which is good for the country. No place for incompetent people even from BJP. Secondly, Raghubar Das is likely to be history as those who cannot perform and win will thrown into the dustbin. Except probably Shivraj it is likely that n...

If you have a bad CM and a stupid state party then no one can help. Maybe Modi-Shah are not remote controlling state orgs as then they would have the reading from the ground.

Supratik

Key economic indicators still in red.

The NBFC crisis is far from over. It seems govt has not been on the ball on the economy one year prior to elections. Otherwise early measures could have been taken.

It is strange that govt has still not been able to figure out the GST regime judging from complaints on this forum.

Supratik

IMF sends out warning on slowing growth. Lots of good data points on the slowdown.

We have to look at the tender. Maybe it will be a JV with an Indian partner.

Supratik

I believe NS has already recently announced something on similar lines as above.

Meanwhile, a positive assessment of the Modi reforms.

It seems there is a lot of infighting in JH BJP. CM Das lost to ex-BJP MLA Saryu Roy. This is not new to JH BJP. Started with Marandi- Munda and continued since then. As for rejection of alliance with AJSU it cannot be RS seats. BJP would have won more RS seats if it were in alliance. So as the sayi...

Supratik

No I think BJP.

Supratik

BJP + AJSU is nearly 42%, INC+JMM+ RJD is 36%.

Supratik

Jharkhand is stupidity on part of BJP. Alliance with AJSU would have won the state comfortably. Overconfidence and disconnect with ground reality.

Supratik

BJP political leadership is misreading the voters. They think the 50-60% vote for Modi means it is vote for BJP. If they had maintained the alliance with AJSU they would have swept the Jharkhand election.

Supratik

Yes, that will help but typically productive govt expenditure will be in infrastructure which has a long gestation period for returns but will create demand for certain industries e.g. cement and steel. If you want to do a quicker turnaround best thing to do is to give substantial tax breaks to the ...

Supratik

Not to mention Hindus turning and voting saffron in large numbers. That is getting their goat. Only about 15% of the 80% Hindus are voting for them currently. Nearly 45% are voting for NDA and the rest for regional non-BIF parties.

Supratik

He has already given interviews to TV channels where he has clearly explained what CAA is about. Nothing more to do except contain the violence. As some posters have mentioned this is not about CAA but about the series of events from TTT, Art 370, J&K reorg, RJB, NRC, CAA. The ground is slipping...

Supratik

Not so sure about it. Axis poll is predicting MGB win and they have been pretty accurate recently. The breaking up off alliance with AJSU was a mistake.

Supratik

Jharkhand looks like BJP will loose. The choice of CMs in states haven't been good with a couple of exceptions.

Supratik

Nothing to worry except for WB rest of the areas are M dominated or have heavy presence of illegals and people know that e.g. everyone in Delhi knows that east Delhi is a hotbed of illegals. People are not fools. They will understand who all is behind it. The PM or HM coming on TV will mean pressure...

Supratik

I have a feeling that there is more illegal immigration than previously thought. Now everyone knows places like east Delhi have a lot of illegals but why there is so much agitation in UP or Ahmedabad or Hyderabad, etc. This is outside WB.

Supratik

It is probably an effect of corporate tax reduction where bottomlines of companies are going to improve. There are short term players in markets and long term players. Long term players do not look at the troughs that every economic cycle goes through but the future potential which everyone agrees I...

Supratik

In reality given India's size these are small protests primarily happening in M dominated areas and that too known areas of illegals and others being organized protests by 4 political parties. Overwhelming majority of Indians are just watching. The idea is to vent some anger and if possible incite t...

Supratik

This is nothing but frustration of the Cong-Left showing up. The CAA is just an excuse as in reality it doesn't affect Indian citizens. The Left now is practically electorally non-existent outside Kerala and some campuses like JNU. The more violent Naxalites have a shrinking base. The Congress area ...

Aadhar or passport or ration card or birth certificate is merely saying you are resident of India. But doesn't prove citizenship or automatically enters your name into NRC. To reduce burden of people they can ask for copies of documents, details of ancestor living on or before cut-off date, perhaps ...

Supratik

Everything will have to be linked to an ancestor who lived in India on or before the cut-off date. It can be linked to any number of documents e.g. Adhaar. But without the former it is a meaningless excercise. So saying Adhaar is enough is not saying it wholly.

Supratik

It is not going to be Adhaar. You can get Adhaar for 1000 bucks. All these are speculations as Govt has not decided on procedure. They are studying the Assam NRC to see how nearly 2 million people fudged it and then decide. Most likely scenario is that you will not have to stand in line but during c...

It is 1000 tonnes more than Arihant to fit in 4 additional tubes. 13000 tonnes will be from S5.

Supratik

Use your brains which seems to be missing. 31.2 million was pop in 2011 in Assam. 17% growth rate. Present growth rate of India approx 14-15%. Extrapolate to Assam comes to around 35.5 million. 33 million applied for NRC. 2.5 million missing. 4.1 million detected in 2018. 1.9 million in 2019. Huge d...

India is actually being very lenient. If you ethnically cleanse 15 million Christians over a period of 40 years from a country (as happened in post-1971 Bdesh, Kashmir, Sindh) the West is going to make sure you are finished forever. Pak, Afghn, Bdesh got away with it because the ones being cleansed ...

In banana republics providing an illegal immigrant with fraudulently obtained documents like Adhaar, ration card or even passport makes you a citizen. Now that you and your family are Indians you should learn that India is not going to be a banana republic where your favorite politician gives you ci...

Now you are being obstinate. The number of Assamese not in NRC is 1 lakh, Nepali 1 lakh. As for source you are educated. So google recent interview of HBS with Rajdeep. Even if the number is 1.2 million the CAB allows them to apply for citizenship. Just entering another country automatically does no...

Picklu, you need to cool down and not get hysterical. My family are refugees from Narayanganj in Bdesh. Part of family still in Bdesh. Plenty of close family still in Kolkata. Everyone of us will be submitting documentation for NRC. As for the 1.2 million Bengali/Bdeshi Hindus those reports are unci...

Another one from the Islamic-Communist republic of Kerala. I don't think you ever were a BJP or Modi voter. If you were you would have known what was in the manifesto. Your small pamphlet above is similar in content to the tukde-tukde gangs. For the umpteenth time this NRC update is not about Indian...
