Dr Jarnail Singh, 67, was the first chairman of the Civil Aviation Medical Board of the Civil Aviation Authority of Singapore & headed many aviation medicine organisations.
Singapore is facing some existential questions, including how its govt, which has guided social, political & commercial life for 60 years, should figure in new, post-Covid era.
The boy, a Christian, had watched the livestream killing of Muslims at Christchurch in New Zealand on 15 March 2019, and planned to carry out his attack on its second anniversary.
For the full year, the city-state’s economy shrank 5.8%, the worst showing since independence more than a half-century ago and the first annual contraction since 2001.
Cases of the new Covid-19 strain could pose a challenge to Singapore, which has been lauded for its success in quelling the pace of infections in the community.
The stage is set for the Democrats’ internal reckoning as the Republican Party, led by Trump, processes its losses and turns its eyes toward the midterms next year.
With 20.2 percent of its total loans in default by the end of last year, Bangladesh had the weakest banking system in Asia. Despite reforms, it will take time to recover.
Bihar is blessed with a land more fertile for revolutions than any in India. Why has it fallen so far behind then? Constant obsession with politics is at the root of its destruction.
Modi is only a marketing PM, he is only good at impressing people with 8 pm speeches. When it comes to real work, bjp is zero, unless ofcourse if it profits businessmen. Manmohan would be better as such task, alas his misfortune was that he belonged to Congress, a party of non workers
coping other nations won’t progress India modiji.India would never able to develop if u want just copy Korea , Japan and China where population rate is drastically decreased due to sudden urbanisation
India has its own circumstances like differences in community , diversity , poverty and needs unique plan to overcome it .
To all the Modi bhakths raging about the article as if it is not a true statement, we have heard about 100 smart cities, name us the location of one, and state its progress.
At least Nehru built one city : Chandigarh.
In the British times, Luytens built New Delhi, and they built many institutions of governance.
The Mughals built Old Delhi – and many other famous cities of northern India.
Now, name one smart city that Modi has built. Amravati was cancelled. The best Modi has done is changed the names of old cities. The rest is empty rhetoric – as is the case of Singapore in Gujarat.
What will happen when the Gujarat prime minister is not in power after a few years.
What will happen when the huge tax concessions are withdrawn by next government
What will happen when other states and cities within India ask for similar tax concessions in the name of equality
As Andy Mukherjee says, this is a gateway for domestic investors to round trip subject to regulators. We know how regulations work in India.
True international investors have many similar destinations as choices.
When constitutional institutions and regulators are not independent, who will guarantee no witch hunt on investors.
Modi’s bhakths are in a predictable range. They are not able to accept the truth about his failure.
Anyone can go and visit Singapore or Dubai, and say I shall make the same in India. Anyone can go to Japan and come back and say ‘I shall make a bullet train’.
But how does the BJP work ? Its main activities are mob violence, hate messages through IT cell, assassinating journalists, and propagating crony capitalism. Singapore’s leaders are not doing that.
Look at how Indian business works. HAL has 60 years experience making planes, Reliance has none, but the failed Ambani is given money to start a new business with public money. Farmers are made to commit suicide for a small default.
Reliance opens a new university and it is given a certficate of excellence. Oxford and Cambridge took 800 years to build a reputation. Here, the Reliance university gets the certificate – even before starting !
Singapore University is ranked among the best in Asia.
Baba Ramdev comes up with a concoction and calls it Coronil and two Health ministry officials certify it, instead of the Drugs Comptroller. Just like Modi’s DU degree was certified in front of the press by two Union ministers. The university never commented.
Lee Yuan Kew went to Cambridge, Modi to a shakha. It makes a world of difference.
So why are the bhakths angry about the article ? If you elect such leaders and worship them, then India will stay among the bottom nations.
“.. Lee Yuan Kew went to Cambridge, Modi to a shakha. It makes a world of difference. ..”
That wonderfully distills everything that can be said about the these 2 men. Besides, Lee Kuam Yew, fought the Japanese occupying forces during WW2. The RSS to which Modi still belongs, worships Nazis. Golwalkar, one of the early Führers of the RSS was an open admirer of Hitler and believed that the Nazi solution for Jews was what India’s Muslims and Christians neeed. And his disciples seem to espouse the same rotten values.
Modi of course has an inferiority complex about his lack of education. He tries to cover up with hard work instead of Harvard. That is why he had to send two Union Ministers, Jaitley and Shah, to show his degree to the press !
Actually, Mani Shankar Aiyar was right when he described Modi as an ‘unpad’ and ‘neech aadm’. It may sound elitist but the facts are correct.
When I pointed this out to my college Whats App group, educated people reacted angrily and told me I must respect the post of PM, and he was elected by a huge majority, so I am insulting Indians. I was told to leave the Whats App group for being anti-national.
As for the RSS and its ideology, which it claims is Indian nationalism, it is merely a copy of Germany’s racial supremacy ideology of the 1930s – which the Germans and Europeans have given up. Even in this, the current ‘Indian nationalism’ has nothing original, they follow Europeans of the 1930s slavishly and adopt defunct models. What they do not realise is that fascism causes aversion in the west, so India’s image has dropped. Modi has conveyed India is an unstable tinderbox and can hardly be an investment destination. But his followers believe the world is in awe of India due to Modi.
Ha!! Ha!! RSS or BJP is a trillion times better than the Jihadis who exploited Dalits & did Hindu & Sikh genocide in Kashmir, West Bengal, Punjab..!! They are a zillion times better than the Jihadi in Pak/Bangladesh who are killing Hindu/Sikhs every day since the last several decades!!
Islamic ideology is worse than Nazis!! Both communists & Islamics are animals worse than dirty jungle pigs!!
Agaya IT cell
You don’t know anything about Pm mod. So better to wait and watch. The thing which he had done is for development of the nation is showing because,in the past two years,india has became the 5th most wealthiest country in world. Dholera city is made to overcome Dubai,Shanghai and Singapore. It will be the world’s largest city but at first it will be 920 sq.km. then slowly,develop. Wait and watch.
Very true…..Gujarat need to be lift alcohol ban ….with alcohol ban no one ready to come Gujarat……we r in 21st century….why alchphol ban in the name of Gandhi in whole Gujarat ??? Structural reforms need to be done ….with alchohol ban only bootlegger and some politicians got money ….
There shouldn’t be any alcohol ban or one must ban everything injurious to health & well being of people & civilizations!! Start banning congress/communists, Jihadi/urban naxals!! That will be more helpful!!
Kuch logical bol bhai ya bus yahi aata hai

“Andy Mukherjee’s foolish attempt to spread hate towards Gujarat and PM Modi has fallen flat”
The same article on business standard..bloomberg..the economic times..ndtv..mint..quint !! Lol
Never ever heard of such a futile argument..”good schools” and pubs !! I mean i can see the amount of hate this guy has for modi and gujarat..i love it !! “Three high-rise buildings” kuch bhi? Next time try coming up with something better my friend..but but but..you’ve tried so hard i must acknowledge that. I wonder how satisfying it would be to behave like a spam..must be a pleasure i guess..have fun cry baby ! No one gives a damn about toxic people like you who can’t even understand the larger picture and long term macro benefits of it..anyway thanks for this “manoranjan” ??
If theprint can accommodate chaman clowns like dhruv rathee for puking shit about the statue of unity..You’re a much more deserving candidate for this..welcome to the circus dada !! Ache se “manoranjan” karna sb kaa..thik hai?
Mr. Andy Mukherjeeby the very heading I became suspicious of your intention and motive. And after reading all the comments my suspicion is confirmed. What about your loyalty, integrity, and honesty? By any chance you are a supporter of TMC and that CM in the disguise of a Hindu. She is the one who stopped Hindus from immersing their idols.
Mamata Banerjee’s order against Durga idol immersion …indianexpress.com › India 21 Sept 2017 — West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee had, in a notification on August 23, said that idol immersion will stop for a period of 24 hours on account of … to all puja committees to carry out immersion of idols as per Hindu rituals. … “Let them (Hindus and Muslims) live in harmony, do not create a line …
Andy Mukherjee. Whom are you loyal to or have no loyalty, dignity, or shame? The very heading and that too coming from a Bengali aroused my suspicion. You must be a TMC supporter and so-called in the disguise of a Hindu CM.
There you go. A word against your supreme leader, you blame him to be anti-Indian and pro-opposition. This rebuttal is getting redundant and obvious. People are starting to see through this.
How much happy you journalists are who want some leader to fail making our country like a progressed country. Why?
You know what Modi , Amit Shah, Fadanvis, Yogi will be there in center with 350+ seats for next 20 years and people like you will follow them by wagging your tail for some bite just like other journalists have been doing.
So keep shouting, keep barking ..Indian youth know you people very well.
And yes don’t just call me bhakt.. we are intellectual people who work for multinational companies at a very high position..
You proudly rate yourself as intellectual because you work for a multi-national company instead of an Indian company ! Bhakths have an inferiority complex.
Intellectual newspapers abroad brim with unflattering pictures of India and its immature nationalism. Does that also make you proud as an intellectual ?
No intellectual will say he is an intellectual – that is a branding given by others. Only a dumb bhakth will call himself intellectual.
What about the scores of leftists calling themselves intellectual. These people who desperately keep a monopoly on the self aggrandizing terms, surely these “dumb” librus also deserve your love
No leftist calls himself an intellectual. Others call him that. Rightists call them that.
Rightists themselves cannot produce an intellectual, so they have an inferiority complex. Only a person with an inferiority complex will write ‘we are intellectual people who work for multinational companies at a very high position.’
The right produce chai wallahs, fake encounter specialists, rapists, people who brandish guns and say ‘sabko marron goli’. Hence, they are called thugs and dumb bhakts.
The left produces Kanihya Kumar and Shehla Rashid, who can argue and debate, without raging. Nehru wrote great books. Hence, they are called intellectuals and admired.
Ha!! Ha!! Good Joke!! Leftists can’t be intellectuals because for that you need a brain & they have none!! That idiot commie Nehru went to the UN when India was winning against the scum Jihadis!!
Miling Mokashi: Clearly, you have obtained the coveted “Cow Science” certification that the BJP organises !
Miling Mokashie proudly wrote ‘we are intellectual people who work for multinational companies at a very high position.’
Did you not figure out the cow science certificate fetched the job in the MNC ?
MNC is Ministry for Nationalist Cows.
And your plan of turning india into Syria will fall flat.
Syria is not Islamic state,but it’s opponents and neo cons want to ruin peaceful Syria.its because of Russia and iran that somehow Syria is saved but I m afraid it’s enemies will destroy it.
These things don’t happen overnight. The print is baised and prints only stuff that pumps their propaganda. I don’t trust the print and I advise you shouldn’t too.
Shameful
I am a resident of Gandhinagar since 10 years. Compared to all the cities it is much peaceful, green with very well planned development (same as chandigarh) is capital of gujarat.
Singapore was not built in a day
(Same as rome)
Gandhinagar will not be built in a day .Atleast the vision of GIFT is possible in gujarat.
Dont forget the trading capacities of gujarati
‘Compared to all the cities it is much peaceful, green with very well planned development (same as chandigarh) is capital of gujarat.’
Then why did Modi build a wall for Trump’s visit ? It looked like he wanted to hide Gujarat’s squalor.
We have not forgotten the trading capacities of gujaratis- 25 of the top loan defaulters are Gujaratis; Gujaratis organised the demonetisation scam; Modi pampered Xi and gave up Indian land to China.
Guajratis are the most corrupt and communal in India.
@Raja: Yo commie scums can lie all you want!! So how are you still on this land?? Your commie brothers are moving back to Nazi China with tail between the legs!!
You are a Bajrang Dal intellectual ! Was your last riot assignment to beat up communists ?
I am no Bajrang Dal member but would be proud to be if it helps eliminate commie & Jihadi filth!!
You & your ilk have done Hindu genocide & killed people everywhere!! Your dirty, evil ideologies need to be finished for ever!!
Time will tell if Andy is right. Till now he has been. Speaking to a couple (yes yes, sample size of 2) high frequency traders, interest in moving to GIFT is significant. Low regulation and no capital gains tax is too attractive for any money minded business house.
Politics be damned if commercials work. Would love Andy to revisit this in 2 years time.
Can we get a counter viewpoint published by the print please?
Andy Mukherjee is the same journalist who wrote – why he’s losing hope in India. In subsequent rebuttal published elsewhere he got his backside handed to him with facts and figures on how India is a rare shining example in developing world. He kept quite for a few weeks after that. A rebuttal is coming.
One thing is noticeable now. All media are rallying up against the Government and are actually criticising it for no reason. Majority of the people in the country are content with the current developments. But certain people really like to spread propaganda and are paid to do so. This is evident in this article. Media should be unbiased- all media houses whether they have a right or a left ideology. Adding irrelevant articles like this won’t changs people’s minds. Just provide us direct news and let us make our ideology. The media does not need to coerce us into any stream of thought. We are capable of thinking on our own.
@Ananth: Indian Media is majority leftist & sold out!! Earlier, soviets used to buy Indian journalists & elite through a glass of whisky! Now it’s the woke & communists!!
Mr Ananth: You bray:
“.. Majority of the people in the country are content with the current developments. But certain people really like to spread propaganda and are paid to do so ..”
So did Modi transfer of Rs 15 lacs to your account from the overseas accounts of Indians as he had promised? Is that why you are backing the Gujarati unconditionally ?
So any article that criticizes or questions the government’s action is by nature a sponsored one? You really do want to live under an authoritarian government with Modi as the supreme leader don’t you?
Why doesn’t any one from the government or those who are behind these policies and ideas debate against this?
No good schools nor pubs? What?? Are you building businesses or drunkards?? Shitty ideology
Damn! I mean media really enjoys criticizing modi . No matter what. When we say Singapore it doesn’t mean Skyscrapers. It means better infrastructure which everyone knows that Gujarat does have .
stand up india, start up india, housing, cooking gas, and what not. now atmanirbhar all hoax. make belief. media and marketing. the sooner the people understand the better it is for this country.
There is a thing about infrastructure projects. In the mid 90s there was a hovercraft project from Mumbai to Navi Mumbai- the price of a one way ride was Rs 150. That time it was considered way too expensive and had very little takers. Today the same project can be priced at Rs 150 for a 2 way ride and will find many takers and will be financially viable.
The next example i s of Mahindra World City Chennai. It is 770 kms South west of Chennai and Chengelpet was considered jungle. The project today is a masterpiece of industrial and residential townplanning. The demand was so high that copycat industrial estates in the nearby areas are also full of tenants. But they had to wait for almost 11 years for even a small progress to happen.
There are plenty of examples. I analysed GIFT, visited it multiple time during its development, met with its senior officers, met BFSI representatives to know their take on the infrastructure.
GIFT City will take some more time – perhaps a decade to come up. But it will definitely come up perhaps in 2030. Navi Mumbai was planned in the 1970s. A bridge over sea connecting Island Bombay to mainland was conceived by JRD Tata. I met the cheif planners of Navi Mumbai and Charles Correa in 2014 and interacted with them. Today Navi Mumbai is undergoing rapid transformation. In the 80s when I was a kid I used to visit my father who worked in Dubai. The entire Sheikh Zayed road was non existent. When the Sheikh was asked why did he build a World Trade Centre in the middle of nowhere he said that this will be the centre of Dubai downtown. And so it i s in 25 years. In the 90s Gurgaon was coming up and so was Ghodbunder Road in Thane- people mocked at the place. I was in Muscat and Seeb airport was the major airport. When a new airport was being built everyone mocked saying who will use so much infrastructure.
Similarly Hyderabad, even in the late 90s was just a small city or a large town. Relentless focus of the state government and some amazing investment has put it in league of best fastest emerging cities in India. Similarly Bangalore, Pune was a pensioners paradise- both are big cities of India.
Give the GIFT city 20-25 years. It will take off. There is no similar alternative to Mumbai today as Financial Capital. Today a lot of data centres are being built and it seems that they are over building. But they know what they are doing. So please dont write off GIFT city as yet.
Infrastructure never goes waste. In a nation like India there i s enough space for a GIFT to grow.
The Print is always spreading fake news, criticism of government that too for no reason, selective journalism, one sided story, anti Hindu n anti national too
The article says Modi’s plan to make a Singapore in Gujarat did not work out. That is correct. True or not ? What is the anti-Hindu and anti-national bit ?
In fact, I don’t see any of Modi’s claims has worked out : 15 lacs to each Indian from black money abroad; Swach Bharat; 100 smart cities; Make in India; Digital India; end of corruption due to demonetisation; end of counterfeit notes (a Guajrati temple was counterfeiting notes); 5 trillion economy.
Where is that Bullet Train ?!!!
What is the one sided story ? What is the other side of the story of Singapore in Gujarat ? You tell us.
I am surprised that the “Singapore” aspect here is taken literally by may. India is after all a federal state and no state can be “Singapore”, though some may try or project to be one. The media and India will do well to discuss mainly the subject issues rather than individuals in matters of economy, administration and Governance.
Tail piece: It is a matter of perception for projection, either which way. Heading and first para of any article channelizes the thought of the reader. Many experts either do not know this or are fashioning the headings in such a way as to influence rather than inform. Sad.
You are one of those BJP types who when asked, where are the 15 lakhs, or the 5 trillion economy, or the doubled income of farmers, or the 100 smart cities, or 60 years of Congress development in 60 months, says it was only a jumla, it was not meant to be taken literally !
The other refuge for incompetence and failure is to plead ‘How can one man change 70 years of damage by Nehru ?’
I presume the chowkidar with the 56 inch chest who is guarding our borders does not have to answer for Galwan, he can say the Chinese did not enter, and when that is proved to be a lie, you will say he did not mean it literally.
Can we then say Modi is also ‘perception for projection’ to low IQ bhakths ? That is what he has been playing for years.
First thing Gujarat need to become financial center is to get rid of prohibition, Gandhi’s pet project. This is one thing Nehru was right i.e not for prohibition. Although Gandhi was living in different age.
It’s SICKENING how anti-Indian paid media residing in India is spreading fake news. Remember how false claims of the farmer being shot by Delhi Police were tweeted and later deleted by a so-called GREAT JOURNALIST!!
I would like to pose these questions to the author of this biased article:
1. Who was in POWER for nearly 6 decades? Why didn’t they make India or even a small town in India as corruption-free as Singapore? Why the IITs RANK LOWER than the National University of Singapore or the Nanyang Tech. Univ.?
2. Under whose NOSE did Harshad Mehta scam occur? Same for the 2G, CWG, BOFORS and many other million dollar scams?
3. Despite having so-called highly educated lawyers in the INC, why can’t the GENIUS Raga be superceded?
One can have a different perspective based on facts but NOT on personal whims and fancies. How do we expect a city to be like a nation like Singapore within 2-3 years? Anyone drawing such a comparison seems to be insane, drunk or malicious. It will be take time – we are extremely populous, corruption has permeated our lives, unlike that in Singapore, and over the next 2-3 decades, India would be a giant power.
Let us be an effective and constructive opposition instead of spreading fake, incomplete, biased news just because we dislike Modi. It is fine to be ANTI-MODI BUT WHY BE ANTI-INDIAN?
Why the hell do you believe that anti-Modi is being anti-Indian ?
Anti Modi is sure being at least anti Hindu & Anti India/Bharat!!
All these commies don’t have any morals or shame!! They are sold out to China/Jihadis & Anti Hindu/Anti India forces!!
They need to be hunted down like in USA during the cold war!!
Here PM Modi should allow alcohol in Gujarat, if he wants to convert Gujarat in Singapore. Example Mumbai , Rajasthan, there are many states in India because of alcohol free the foreigners come here invest lots of money, etc in every business. There is everything in Gujarat but only one thing is restricted which is alcohol which can generate more revenue, can decrease the taxes and other big investors and visitors from different countries can do all this thing.
Everything this man has done has been a disaster for India – starting with sending kar sevaks on trains, and the massacre in Gujarat; demonetisation which wrecked the livelihoods of many, and crashed the Indian economy; Covid lockdown without planning; CAA-NRC; passing laws to hand over farms to a couple of cronies; alienating all neighbours and letting China take India for a ride.
Hence, it is expected that Modi’s plan to make a Singapore in Gujarat was another episode of vain grandstanding.
The question is why Indians thought and think an unqualified man with a dubious record could make a Singapore in Gujarat.
Gujaratis are the most corrupt and communal in India. 25 of the top defaulters are Gujarati. The 5 richest Indians are Gujarati.
Singapore has succeeded as it avoided communalism and corruption.
Islam & congress/communists have been disastrous for India!! Islamic ideology killed hundreds of millions of Hindus, created a terrorist nation next door & let those who voted for Pakistan stay in India!! The slaughtering of Hindus continues to this day through out India & of course Islamic Pak/Bangladesh!!
The topic of the article is Modi’s vain boast about making a Singapore in Gujarat and how it was hot air from the chai wallah. I commented on Modi’s other claims all of which are failures.
I know he claims his setbacks are due to Nehru. You are saying ‘Islamic ideology’ is responsible for Modi’s
useless performance. Modi claims he is following Hindu ideology. You need to rethink your logic.
I am saying that commies like congress/Nehru & Islamic ideology have been disastrous for India, NOT Modi!! As for Modi working exclusively for Hindus is HIGHLY questionable!!
The Hindu temples won’t still be in government prisons while the hate preaching mosques are free if he worked for Hindus only!! The commie/Jihadi version of Indian history would also have changed by now!!
India needs a real right wing Hindu party just as the republicans in America!! BJP is good but needs a good & sensible opposition!!
Please do. With the present dispensation, you will not have to make much effort. They are always on the lookout for ‘anti nationals’ and you will hand them over on a platter.
I don’t agree. Gift city has bright future. Modiji will get things done soon enough. After all, he’s a good visionary and a great leader who has tremendous thinking power!!
Yes, Gujarat has a stupid prohibition policy. Even an ounce of alcohol can take you to jail. Only beneficiaries are the local police and neighbouring states. Myopic political dispensation – that includes Modi.
I am surprised that the author chooses to criticise Modi when entire world including india went through such difficult period due to pandemic. Shameful there should be balance in writing
Out and out foolish, ill informed, highly opinionated crap from a publication which has taken supari to target Modi. There is a ancient Indian saying that a cow doesnt die by the curse of a crow. So let the crow caw caw through The Print.
India is bearing the brunt of misinformation spread by anti-India forces within and outside India. The recent so called Farmers agitation are Middlemen, Traders and Khalistan supporters who may also be owning Agriculture lands. The anti-Modi tirade has turned anti-India led by Congress, AAP and leftists. There are no curbs on any basic freedom. Modi enjoys huge public support.
It is not as easy as killing another greenfield city in AP called Amaravati. Perf plan with good ecosystem is required to attract funds to invest, which is not the area of expertise of our beloved Neta ji. How to win elections, by any means is the best thing that can be repeated again and again.
Writing intellectual matter does not include buying reports from other news aggregators . U should do ur own research and print the report, not cut, copy paste.
Majority of Indian media is leftist & lacks brains, analysis or indeed basic patriotism!! They copy/paste articles & analysis from western sources and call it journalism!!
This type of journalism is not just brainless but also hurts the nation!! After all, the west’s & Indian point of view will rarely converge!!
Andy Mukherjee is the most negative man I have seen on twitter, ThePrint is promoting his articles. Shekharbhai I love watching your views, but please don’t promote such a negative guy, he never write’s anything positive on India.
I am not agree with it because every initiative takes time to stablish atleast this government is sensible enough to take steps for reforming the country situation in each and every steps this government is working more in comparison to other government .when I compare present government in each and every aspect of other previous government then I found that this govt is touching each area to improve it .
I am surprised how Print doesn’t feel ashamed publishing such articles. GIFT City is for the entire nation. Just think about foreign investors who want to invest in this project reading such articles. They will think twice before taking any step now. But since people will give credit to the government if this project becomes a success, some media outlets will try to pull the entire nation down so that nobody gets to be successful. Sadistic mentality.
Many media houses buy news from other sources and republish them. That is part and parcel of the media industry. Thus there are a few aggregators such as Reuters, AFP etc. and others who buy news from them. Nothing to write home about.
But you have no comments to the article per se Mr Raj. Writing a comment requieres some intellectual effort doesn’t it ?
You are so right
Very gratified to read your comment, sir.
Thanks Mr Ashok !
Ha!! Ha!! Ignorance & stupidity has no limits! What is journalism in a nation if foreign news & views only have to be given preference??!! WHY do we need journalists??!! People can just read from the foreign source & remain enslaved like you & your ilk!!
It gave credit to Bloomberg in the end. Read it fully before giving blind criticism.
The print is chamcha of Pappu
Modi is only a marketing PM, he is only good at impressing people with 8 pm speeches. When it comes to real work, bjp is zero, unless ofcourse if it profits businessmen. Manmohan would be better as such task, alas his misfortune was that he belonged to Congress, a party of non workers

Very true…..Gujarat need to be lift alcohol ban ….with alcohol ban no one ready to come Gujarat……we r in 21st century….why alchphol ban in the name of Gandhi in whole Gujarat ??? Structural reforms need to be done ….with alchohol ban only bootlegger and some politicians got money ….
There shouldn’t be any alcohol ban or one must ban everything injurious to health & well being of people & civilizations!! Start banning congress/communists, Jihadi/urban naxals!! That will be more helpful!!
Kuch logical bol bhai ya bus yahi aata hai

“Andy Mukherjee’s foolish attempt to spread hate towards Gujarat and PM Modi has fallen flat”
The same article on business standard..bloomberg..the economic times..ndtv..mint..quint !! Lol
Never ever heard of such a futile argument..”good schools” and pubs !! I mean i can see the amount of hate this guy has for modi and gujarat..i love it !! “Three high-rise buildings” kuch bhi? Next time try coming up with something better my friend..but but but..you’ve tried so hard i must acknowledge that. I wonder how satisfying it would be to behave like a spam..must be a pleasure i guess..have fun cry baby ! No one gives a damn about toxic people like you who can’t even understand the larger picture and long term macro benefits of it..anyway thanks for this “manoranjan” ??
If theprint can accommodate chaman clowns like dhruv rathee for puking shit about the statue of unity..You’re a much more deserving candidate for this..welcome to the circus dada !! Ache se “manoranjan” karna sb kaa..thik hai?
Mr. Andy Mukherjeeby the very heading I became suspicious of your intention and motive. And after reading all the comments my suspicion is confirmed. What about your loyalty, integrity, and honesty? By any chance you are a supporter of TMC and that CM in the disguise of a Hindu. She is the one who stopped Hindus from immersing their idols.
Mamata Banerjee’s order against Durga idol immersion …indianexpress.com › India 21 Sept 2017 — West Bengal Chief Minister Mamata Banerjee had, in a notification on August 23, said that idol immersion will stop for a period of 24 hours on account of … to all puja committees to carry out immersion of idols as per Hindu rituals. … “Let them (Hindus and Muslims) live in harmony, do not create a line …
Andy Mukherjee. Whom are you loyal to or have no loyalty, dignity, or shame? The very heading and that too coming from a Bengali aroused my suspicion. You must be a TMC supporter and so-called in the disguise of a Hindu CM.
There you go. A word against your supreme leader, you blame him to be anti-Indian and pro-opposition. This rebuttal is getting redundant and obvious. People are starting to see through this.
How much happy you journalists are who want some leader to fail making our country like a progressed country. Why?
You know what Modi , Amit Shah, Fadanvis, Yogi will be there in center with 350+ seats for next 20 years and people like you will follow them by wagging your tail for some bite just like other journalists have been doing.
So keep shouting, keep barking ..Indian youth know you people very well.
And yes don’t just call me bhakt.. we are intellectual people who work for multinational companies at a very high position..
Grow up guys..be honest with your profession..
You proudly rate yourself as intellectual because you work for a multi-national company instead of an Indian company ! Bhakths have an inferiority complex.
Intellectual newspapers abroad brim with unflattering pictures of India and its immature nationalism. Does that also make you proud as an intellectual ?
No intellectual will say he is an intellectual – that is a branding given by others. Only a dumb bhakth will call himself intellectual.
What about the scores of leftists calling themselves intellectual. These people who desperately keep a monopoly on the self aggrandizing terms, surely these “dumb” librus also deserve your love
No leftist calls himself an intellectual. Others call him that. Rightists call them that.
Rightists themselves cannot produce an intellectual, so they have an inferiority complex. Only a person with an inferiority complex will write ‘we are intellectual people who work for multinational companies at a very high position.’
The right produce chai wallahs, fake encounter specialists, rapists, people who brandish guns and say ‘sabko marron goli’. Hence, they are called thugs and dumb bhakts.
The left produces Kanihya Kumar and Shehla Rashid, who can argue and debate, without raging. Nehru wrote great books. Hence, they are called intellectuals and admired.
Ha!! Ha!! Good Joke!! Leftists can’t be intellectuals because for that you need a brain & they have none!! That idiot commie Nehru went to the UN when India was winning against the scum Jihadis!!
Miling Mokashi: Clearly, you have obtained the coveted “Cow Science” certification that the BJP organises !
Miling Mokashie proudly wrote ‘we are intellectual people who work for multinational companies at a very high position.’
Did you not figure out the cow science certificate fetched the job in the MNC ?
MNC is Ministry for Nationalist Cows.
And your plan of turning india into Syria will fall flat.
Syria is not Islamic state,but it’s opponents and neo cons want to ruin peaceful Syria.its because of Russia and iran that somehow Syria is saved but I m afraid it’s enemies will destroy it.
These things don’t happen overnight. The print is baised and prints only stuff that pumps their propaganda. I don’t trust the print and I advise you shouldn’t too.
Shameful
I am a resident of Gandhinagar since 10 years. Compared to all the cities it is much peaceful, green with very well planned development (same as chandigarh) is capital of gujarat.
Singapore was not built in a day
(Same as rome)
Gandhinagar will not be built in a day .Atleast the vision of GIFT is possible in gujarat.
Dont forget the trading capacities of gujarati
‘Compared to all the cities it is much peaceful, green with very well planned development (same as chandigarh) is capital of gujarat.’
Then why did Modi build a wall for Trump’s visit ? It looked like he wanted to hide Gujarat’s squalor.
We have not forgotten the trading capacities of gujaratis- 25 of the top loan defaulters are Gujaratis; Gujaratis organised the demonetisation scam; Modi pampered Xi and gave up Indian land to China.
Guajratis are the most corrupt and communal in India.
@Raja: Yo commie scums can lie all you want!! So how are you still on this land?? Your commie brothers are moving back to Nazi China with tail between the legs!!
You are a Bajrang Dal intellectual ! Was your last riot assignment to beat up communists ?
I am no Bajrang Dal member but would be proud to be if it helps eliminate commie & Jihadi filth!!
You & your ilk have done Hindu genocide & killed people everywhere!! Your dirty, evil ideologies need to be finished for ever!!
Time will tell if Andy is right. Till now he has been. Speaking to a couple (yes yes, sample size of 2) high frequency traders, interest in moving to GIFT is significant. Low regulation and no capital gains tax is too attractive for any money minded business house.
Politics be damned if commercials work. Would love Andy to revisit this in 2 years time.
Can we get a counter viewpoint published by the print please?
Andy Mukherjee is the same journalist who wrote – why he’s losing hope in India. In subsequent rebuttal published elsewhere he got his backside handed to him with facts and figures on how India is a rare shining example in developing world. He kept quite for a few weeks after that. A rebuttal is coming.
One thing is noticeable now. All media are rallying up against the Government and are actually criticising it for no reason. Majority of the people in the country are content with the current developments. But certain people really like to spread propaganda and are paid to do so. This is evident in this article. Media should be unbiased- all media houses whether they have a right or a left ideology. Adding irrelevant articles like this won’t changs people’s minds. Just provide us direct news and let us make our ideology. The media does not need to coerce us into any stream of thought. We are capable of thinking on our own.
@Ananth: Indian Media is majority leftist & sold out!! Earlier, soviets used to buy Indian journalists & elite through a glass of whisky! Now it’s the woke & communists!!
Mr Ananth: You bray:
“.. Majority of the people in the country are content with the current developments. But certain people really like to spread propaganda and are paid to do so ..”
So did Modi transfer of Rs 15 lacs to your account from the overseas accounts of Indians as he had promised? Is that why you are backing the Gujarati unconditionally ?
So any article that criticizes or questions the government’s action is by nature a sponsored one? You really do want to live under an authoritarian government with Modi as the supreme leader don’t you?
Why doesn’t any one from the government or those who are behind these policies and ideas debate against this?
No good schools nor pubs? What?? Are you building businesses or drunkards?? Shitty ideology
Damn! I mean media really enjoys criticizing modi . No matter what. When we say Singapore it doesn’t mean Skyscrapers. It means better infrastructure which everyone knows that Gujarat does have .
stand up india, start up india, housing, cooking gas, and what not. now atmanirbhar all hoax. make belief. media and marketing. the sooner the people understand the better it is for this country.
There is a thing about infrastructure projects. In the mid 90s there was a hovercraft project from Mumbai to Navi Mumbai- the price of a one way ride was Rs 150. That time it was considered way too expensive and had very little takers. Today the same project can be priced at Rs 150 for a 2 way ride and will find many takers and will be financially viable.
The next example i s of Mahindra World City Chennai. It is 770 kms South west of Chennai and Chengelpet was considered jungle. The project today is a masterpiece of industrial and residential townplanning. The demand was so high that copycat industrial estates in the nearby areas are also full of tenants. But they had to wait for almost 11 years for even a small progress to happen.
There are plenty of examples. I analysed GIFT, visited it multiple time during its development, met with its senior officers, met BFSI representatives to know their take on the infrastructure.
GIFT City will take some more time – perhaps a decade to come up. But it will definitely come up perhaps in 2030. Navi Mumbai was planned in the 1970s. A bridge over sea connecting Island Bombay to mainland was conceived by JRD Tata. I met the cheif planners of Navi Mumbai and Charles Correa in 2014 and interacted with them. Today Navi Mumbai is undergoing rapid transformation. In the 80s when I was a kid I used to visit my father who worked in Dubai. The entire Sheikh Zayed road was non existent. When the Sheikh was asked why did he build a World Trade Centre in the middle of nowhere he said that this will be the centre of Dubai downtown. And so it i s in 25 years. In the 90s Gurgaon was coming up and so was Ghodbunder Road in Thane- people mocked at the place. I was in Muscat and Seeb airport was the major airport. When a new airport was being built everyone mocked saying who will use so much infrastructure.
Similarly Hyderabad, even in the late 90s was just a small city or a large town. Relentless focus of the state government and some amazing investment has put it in league of best fastest emerging cities in India. Similarly Bangalore, Pune was a pensioners paradise- both are big cities of India.
Give the GIFT city 20-25 years. It will take off. There is no similar alternative to Mumbai today as Financial Capital. Today a lot of data centres are being built and it seems that they are over building. But they know what they are doing. So please dont write off GIFT city as yet.
Infrastructure never goes waste. In a nation like India there i s enough space for a GIFT to grow.
leftist won’t reply you
commies won’t reply you
they won’t reply you
The Print is always spreading fake news, criticism of government that too for no reason, selective journalism, one sided story, anti Hindu n anti national too
The article says Modi’s plan to make a Singapore in Gujarat did not work out. That is correct. True or not ? What is the anti-Hindu and anti-national bit ?
In fact, I don’t see any of Modi’s claims has worked out : 15 lacs to each Indian from black money abroad; Swach Bharat; 100 smart cities; Make in India; Digital India; end of corruption due to demonetisation; end of counterfeit notes (a Guajrati temple was counterfeiting notes); 5 trillion economy.
Where is that Bullet Train ?!!!
What is the one sided story ? What is the other side of the story of Singapore in Gujarat ? You tell us.
????Ok
This is absolute jealous bullshit…GIFT city is thriving…I live there…
I am surprised that the “Singapore” aspect here is taken literally by may. India is after all a federal state and no state can be “Singapore”, though some may try or project to be one. The media and India will do well to discuss mainly the subject issues rather than individuals in matters of economy, administration and Governance.
Tail piece: It is a matter of perception for projection, either which way. Heading and first para of any article channelizes the thought of the reader. Many experts either do not know this or are fashioning the headings in such a way as to influence rather than inform. Sad.
You are one of those BJP types who when asked, where are the 15 lakhs, or the 5 trillion economy, or the doubled income of farmers, or the 100 smart cities, or 60 years of Congress development in 60 months, says it was only a jumla, it was not meant to be taken literally !
The other refuge for incompetence and failure is to plead ‘How can one man change 70 years of damage by Nehru ?’
I presume the chowkidar with the 56 inch chest who is guarding our borders does not have to answer for Galwan, he can say the Chinese did not enter, and when that is proved to be a lie, you will say he did not mean it literally.
Can we then say Modi is also ‘perception for projection’ to low IQ bhakths ? That is what he has been playing for years.
First thing Gujarat need to become financial center is to get rid of prohibition, Gandhi’s pet project. This is one thing Nehru was right i.e not for prohibition. Although Gandhi was living in different age.
It’s SICKENING how anti-Indian paid media residing in India is spreading fake news. Remember how false claims of the farmer being shot by Delhi Police were tweeted and later deleted by a so-called GREAT JOURNALIST!!
I would like to pose these questions to the author of this biased article:
1. Who was in POWER for nearly 6 decades? Why didn’t they make India or even a small town in India as corruption-free as Singapore? Why the IITs RANK LOWER than the National University of Singapore or the Nanyang Tech. Univ.?
2. Under whose NOSE did Harshad Mehta scam occur? Same for the 2G, CWG, BOFORS and many other million dollar scams?
3. Despite having so-called highly educated lawyers in the INC, why can’t the GENIUS Raga be superceded?
One can have a different perspective based on facts but NOT on personal whims and fancies. How do we expect a city to be like a nation like Singapore within 2-3 years? Anyone drawing such a comparison seems to be insane, drunk or malicious. It will be take time – we are extremely populous, corruption has permeated our lives, unlike that in Singapore, and over the next 2-3 decades, India would be a giant power.
Let us be an effective and constructive opposition instead of spreading fake, incomplete, biased news just because we dislike Modi. It is fine to be ANTI-MODI BUT WHY BE ANTI-INDIAN?
Why the hell do you believe that anti-Modi is being anti-Indian ?
Anti Modi is sure being at least anti Hindu & Anti India/Bharat!!
All these commies don’t have any morals or shame!! They are sold out to China/Jihadis & Anti Hindu/Anti India forces!!
They need to be hunted down like in USA during the cold war!!
Here PM Modi should allow alcohol in Gujarat, if he wants to convert Gujarat in Singapore. Example Mumbai , Rajasthan, there are many states in India because of alcohol free the foreigners come here invest lots of money, etc in every business. There is everything in Gujarat but only one thing is restricted which is alcohol which can generate more revenue, can decrease the taxes and other big investors and visitors from different countries can do all this thing.
Everything this man has done has been a disaster for India – starting with sending kar sevaks on trains, and the massacre in Gujarat; demonetisation which wrecked the livelihoods of many, and crashed the Indian economy; Covid lockdown without planning; CAA-NRC; passing laws to hand over farms to a couple of cronies; alienating all neighbours and letting China take India for a ride.
Hence, it is expected that Modi’s plan to make a Singapore in Gujarat was another episode of vain grandstanding.
The question is why Indians thought and think an unqualified man with a dubious record could make a Singapore in Gujarat.
Gujaratis are the most corrupt and communal in India. 25 of the top defaulters are Gujarati. The 5 richest Indians are Gujarati.
Singapore has succeeded as it avoided communalism and corruption.
Islam & congress/communists have been disastrous for India!! Islamic ideology killed hundreds of millions of Hindus, created a terrorist nation next door & let those who voted for Pakistan stay in India!! The slaughtering of Hindus continues to this day through out India & of course Islamic Pak/Bangladesh!!
The topic of the article is Modi’s vain boast about making a Singapore in Gujarat and how it was hot air from the chai wallah. I commented on Modi’s other claims all of which are failures.
I know he claims his setbacks are due to Nehru. You are saying ‘Islamic ideology’ is responsible for Modi’s
useless performance. Modi claims he is following Hindu ideology. You need to rethink your logic.
I am saying that commies like congress/Nehru & Islamic ideology have been disastrous for India, NOT Modi!! As for Modi working exclusively for Hindus is HIGHLY questionable!!
The Hindu temples won’t still be in government prisons while the hate preaching mosques are free if he worked for Hindus only!! The commie/Jihadi version of Indian history would also have changed by now!!
India needs a real right wing Hindu party just as the republicans in America!! BJP is good but needs a good & sensible opposition!!
Lol
Legalise alcohol and see the city boom.
To *The Print*, I will File a case against you sooner and Andy mukherjee i won’t spare you… (;
Please do. With the present dispensation, you will not have to make much effort. They are always on the lookout for ‘anti nationals’ and you will hand them over on a platter.
I don’t agree. Gift city has bright future. Modiji will get things done soon enough. After all, he’s a good visionary and a great leader who has tremendous thinking power!!
Anfy is always against gift concept.. may be he fears ?
Yes, Gujarat has a stupid prohibition policy. Even an ounce of alcohol can take you to jail. Only beneficiaries are the local police and neighbouring states. Myopic political dispensation – that includes Modi.
It’s too early too judge this kind of ambitious project.
The city of London took 200 years, Dubai 30 years.
This article also provides your credibility same as BJP IT cell(60 year me ku6 nai hua)
*also mr. Shekhar gupta shouldn’t waste his good reputation for this ill materials
I am surprised that the author chooses to criticise Modi when entire world including india went through such difficult period due to pandemic. Shameful there should be balance in writing
Out and out foolish, ill informed, highly opinionated crap from a publication which has taken supari to target Modi. There is a ancient Indian saying that a cow doesnt die by the curse of a crow. So let the crow caw caw through The Print.
Fake news, canards, misinformation on India.
India is bearing the brunt of misinformation spread by anti-India forces within and outside India. India is in perfect shape.
India is bearing the brunt of misinformation spread by anti-India forces within and outside India. The recent so called Farmers agitation are Middlemen, Traders and Khalistan supporters who may also be owning Agriculture lands. The anti-Modi tirade has turned anti-India led by Congress, AAP and leftists. There are no curbs on any basic freedom. Modi enjoys huge public support.
If Name is The Print then… won’t sa anything…
Wait Singapore and Shanghai will start Gift city.
Getting funds from Pakistan.
It is not as easy as killing another greenfield city in AP called Amaravati. Perf plan with good ecosystem is required to attract funds to invest, which is not the area of expertise of our beloved Neta ji. How to win elections, by any means is the best thing that can be repeated again and again.
Writing intellectual matter does not include buying reports from other news aggregators . U should do ur own research and print the report, not cut, copy paste.
Majority of Indian media is leftist & lacks brains, analysis or indeed basic patriotism!! They copy/paste articles & analysis from western sources and call it journalism!!
This type of journalism is not just brainless but also hurts the nation!! After all, the west’s & Indian point of view will rarely converge!!
Andy Mukherjee is the most negative man I have seen on twitter, ThePrint is promoting his articles. Shekharbhai I love watching your views, but please don’t promote such a negative guy, he never write’s anything positive on India.
I am not agree with it because every initiative takes time to stablish atleast this government is sensible enough to take steps for reforming the country situation in each and every steps this government is working more in comparison to other government .when I compare present government in each and every aspect of other previous government then I found that this govt is touching each area to improve it .
Waah . These people clearly don’t want development to happen
Why THE PRINT is one point agenda ANTI MODI…..Common, the Readers are NOT FOOLS…Grow up guys, find something NEW
I am surprised how Print doesn’t feel ashamed publishing such articles. GIFT City is for the entire nation. Just think about foreign investors who want to invest in this project reading such articles. They will think twice before taking any step now. But since people will give credit to the government if this project becomes a success, some media outlets will try to pull the entire nation down so that nobody gets to be successful. Sadistic mentality.
I blame the congress & Rahul Ghandi
Why don’t you blame Nehru??
Nehru was no pandit or even a patriot!! He was a communist & anti Hindu bigot as is the rest of Antonia Maino/Vadra/Nehru family!!
Fake news print should be ashamed. At least somebody is building infrastructure.
Yes a ghost city.. Who is investing in that city..? If private citizens are investing there well and good. If it is Financed by tax payers..
100% fake
Not correct
Outsource the government of India to Singapore. Then only change will happen
Tall buildings do help. Ananya’s apartment is on the 35th floor.
It takes time for a city to get developed. You can’t make Singapore in india in just 2 to 3 years. It will take 15 years.
What’s the use of time when your bussiness model isn’t even clear on who to Target and how to proceed.
Copy paste journalism, saw this article on Bloomberg, now it is peddled here , probably for free , why does print need money for us then ?
Many media houses buy news from other sources and republish them. That is part and parcel of the media industry. Thus there are a few aggregators such as Reuters, AFP etc. and others who buy news from them. Nothing to write home about.
But you have no comments to the article per se Mr Raj. Writing a comment requieres some intellectual effort doesn’t it ?
You are so right
Very gratified to read your comment, sir.
Thanks Mr Ashok !
Ha!! Ha!! Ignorance & stupidity has no limits! What is journalism in a nation if foreign news & views only have to be given preference??!! WHY do we need journalists??!! People can just read from the foreign source & remain enslaved like you & your ilk!!
It gave credit to Bloomberg in the end. Read it fully before giving blind criticism.
