India's fascination with the 'Ease of Doing Business' rankings hasn't served it well. Vietnam ranked below India but has attracted more foreign investment.
The Centre revoked permission to e-commerce firms to sell & deliver non-essential items from Monday. It has also issued new FDI rules to cut the risk of "opportunistic takeovers".
Among all the issues that matter right now, FDI should not be forgotten. It has historically been a barometer of health of international companies, and their ability to bring about global growth.
The industries department is in talks with finance and home ministries, and any changes would include transactions under the so-called automatic route.
BJP under Modi-Shah is returning to its protectionist, anti-MNC, technophobic old notions, underlining that strong governments can also be more risk-averse.
The Romans’ version of stoicism is rapidly picking popularity on Instagram — Marcus Aurelius, Epictetus, and Seneca are some names that get thrown at you when you fire up your screen.
Germany’s erstwhile Christian Democratic Union govt, led by Angela Merkel, prevented sale of small arms to police forces in states they perceived had ‘bad human rights record’.
A theme has not yet emerged for BJP & people see lack of a contest, which makes it unexciting. For all these reasons, 2024 is turning out to be an unexpectedly theme-less election.
Like VOCAL FOR LOCAL, I think it is important to also have VISUAL FOR LOCAL. Like products have green and red dots, we should start having saffron dot for MADE IN INDIA so that consumers are aware what they are buying. This will promote local products.

India with same population as China is i/5 th of Chinese economy, The German output is no less than 7 times of India. Yet the Indians are unable to guide their resources to obtain more turnover. Why ? I rather not answer to avoid unpopularity.
Niti Aayog has been working on Make in India for six years. Manufacturing and exports are in a funk. Actually we cannot be self reliant even in terms of savings and foreign exchange. The kindness of strangers keeps us afloat. It required vision and courage in 1978 for China – still a communist country – to stand orthodoxy on its head and to start the greatest economic miracle the world has seen. Now reflected in the 5 : 1 asymmetry it has gained over India. No one could possibly be more self reliant than the poor, trudging wearily home along the highways. One understands better now the depth and ferocity of religious belief in India. Without it, …
