Once famous for its leather business, Dharavi shops are badly hit by the 2015 Maharashtra govt order curbing supply of bullock hide as well as note ban and GST.
Raghav Agarwal, owner of Metal World in Moradabad, explains to ThePrint's Ruhi Tewari how the handicrafts sector has been hit by a slowing economy and other factors.
Contract for construction of four MILGEM-class ships was signed in 2018. PNS Bedir is to be delivered by June 2026, while PNS Tariq is due for delivery in first quarter of 2027.
If Pathaan gave both conservatives and liberals room to hide, Dhurandhar extends no such courtesy. Aditya Dhar ripped open that tent of hypocrisy and turned the knife.
It is peculiar, and one finds it difficult to understand as to how a Govt. at the centre and state are living in a make believe world supported by bureaucrats and corporate while the farmers, small traders and other small entrepreneurs are suffering. Modi Govt. and that of any other state Govts. are elected by the electorate citizens of India and respective states but the Govt. are taking orders from RSS and the the other fringe elements of RSS. Modi celebrates Diwali with Jawans call them part of his own family while his own family that is his wife he never meets and the families of Jawans and those who have lost their jobs number in millions are suffering due to his bad economic policy. In the name of development Modi even after his more than 3 yrs of coming to power is playing anti Congress card and giving excuses of their own misdeeds. One way and only one way is to show Modi and RSS that they have done enough and now no more is to bring down the Govt. in Gujrat.
It is ironic that the same people who brayed for the last 60 years “jai jawan jai kisan” came from a family of aristocrats who were neither jawans nor kisans. Under the guise of “welfare” they stole from the middle classes and distributed money to the lazy, incompetent and political convenient sections of society through Hajj subsidies and when no distributing people other people’s wealth and property – they lined their own pockets with grotesque amounts carries them to this day. Now, after losing and being thrown out for not just their failed ideology and ineptness but their wholesale loot of the nation , they accuses the RSS of running the Govt – because of course they can only construct the world in parameters they understand – of remote control politics ala Gandhi family and UPA chairpersons and paper-pusher Prime Ministers. The delusion and indeed the conceit of the liberals is in believing that PM Modi hasn’t a voice or thought of his own and only works on the instructions of the RSS – an organization he is neither a part of nor is interested in commanding him to do its bidding.
What is peculiar is that today economic “development” has become a “misdeed” in the eyes of the liberals and somehow their brothel visiting prince’s paramours are never discussed by Modi’s estranged wife who he left more than 40 years ago are frequently brought up ? The fact that this PM has consistently spend 3 diwalis with the troops while neither the previous PMs or any of the failed Gandhi family politicians who have the blood of thousands of Indian soldiers on their hands for their reckless and criminal policies have ever bothered to even attend the funeral of a solitary soldier – let alone make a tradition of visiting them and thanking them for their service. The peculiar affection for retaining the black economy, continuing the excessive use of cash for corruption, black markets and criminal activities, the affection for those businesses that never bother to contribute to society or pay taxes is somehow shown as “pro-people” and “wise economics” . Perhaps this is why PM Modi has reduced the fiscal deficit, accrued $400 billion in foreign reserves, reduced inflation to sub 5% and heralded the birth of a new tax regime in India which no previous govt could hope to accomplish. Yet all these “misdeeds” and “bad economic policy” should be replaced with the “success” of Cabinet ministers going to jail for corruption, 2G, 3G, Coal , Iron mining scams and dysfunctional and ineffectual government . At least back then – the crooks and the corrupt could stack their cash without fear of it becoming illegitimate. At least back then – a small time black-market manufacturer could evade taxes, bribe officials and make money!
Yet another example of informal sector being hit. Informal economy is 50% of what is formally recognized. Its time to leverage the change and move up in the ladder. In informal economy interest rates are 25% where as in formal 11% and whole lot of benefits.
The Vatican/Congress rule has done such great favors to India all these years that even a 100 demonetization and GST will not come close. Those invested and entrenched in the old order of corruption, shadow economy, grey-market, tax-dodging business have no future in either business or politics.

The BJP/RSS rule of India will bankrupt the nation and push the millions into poverty. Just started.
The Vatican/Congress rule has done such great favors to India all these years that even a 100 demonetization and GST will not come close. Those invested and entrenched in the old order of corruption, shadow economy, grey-market, tax-dodging business have no future in either business or politics.
