French investigative journal Mediapart has accessed an “internal document” of Dassault Aviation, the makers of the Rafale jets. It states the firm’s joint venture...
As devastated farmers begin to come to terms with the fallout, 4 lakh hectares of land under paddy cultivation across state is flooded. Punjab is among the biggest contributors to PDS.
New Delhi: Army chief General Upendra Dwivedi has strongly backed the idea of theaterisation, saying it is inevitable and the need of the hour.
Speaking...
In its toughest time in decades because of floods, Punjab would’ve expected PM Modi to visit. If he has the time for a Bihar tour, why not a short visit to next-door Punjab?
As per ET report the said ‘internal report’ was nothing but a communication by Dassault to its workers union. In reality, the offset doesn’t work against interests of Indian labour, but certainly against French labour, as so much production is forcibly taken away from France to India. As such, Dassault was explaining it’s obligations under offset in general terms to its own labour. Please also read India Today report on the offset arrangement. It says that largest share of the offset agreement, to the extent ₹.9000 crore, will go to DRDO and not to Anil Ambani. As stated therein the major reason why Dassault had JV with Ambani was that they had land in Mihan Area, near to Nagpur airport. The offset share of this JV is not yet declared. But it certainly cannot be entire ₹.30000 crore, as Rahul Gandhi says. Some reports say the share will not exceed 15% of the total Offset value. Pl don’t forget that Dessault itself has 49% share in this JV. As such 100% of the profit will not go to Ambani. Rahul is deliberately exaggerating.
Who knows? Perhaps, Modi is calculatedly allowing a long rope to the leading opposition noise to vent itself thoroughly and then hang him with it. With about seven months to the actual polling, Modi can strike with an iron fist when the time is ripe, not leaving any breathing space to the ‘opposition’ ( Evidently, the REST of the leading opposition has already sensed this; hence their reticence). Meanwhile, the GOP is not only going hammer and tongs at this issue, but also making more rash and committed statements by the day, so that, when the fall inevitably happens, it will be much greater than the one experienced by Humpty and Dumpty.
whether it is mandatory or not – not sure arguing it makes too much sense. Has it made so much sense to allow modi to get lambasted out of shape. One needs to look at his face at times. The falling crowds at road shows. The need for modi to say at roadshows that he does not lie. Does not make sense that the government does not know this. The jatkey is ever ready to obfuscate any issue. By now he would have pounced on this. Unless the BJP considers all this worthwhile to show Rahu in bad light
