A stunted middle class may be a direct result of extreme inequality. Folks at the top don’t see teeming masses as a meaningful market, except for utilities, soap, short videos, and personal loans.
Based on inflation figures for the last three months, RBI is expected to look for confirmatory evidence that can mark the beginning of a sustained decline in core inflation.
It is argued that India-Israel ties are moving from buyer–seller dynamic to one focused on joint development & manufacturing partnership, a shift 'more durable' than traditional arms sales.
Don’t blame misfortune. This is colossal incompetence and insensitivity. So bad, heads would have rolled even in the old PSU-era Indian Airlines and Air India.
It is heartening to know that the estimated 11 lakh Indians who fought in WWI, out of whom around 60,000 died, are finally getting their due. However, the fact remains that these people were fighting for their foreign masters and not for their own motherland (which, in my opinion, robbed them of said recognition in the first place). In fact, the British Indian Army, mostly made up of Indian soldiers, with their steadfast lotalty to their British masters, remained the mainstay of the British colonial (under the British East India Company) as well as imperial (under the British crown) rule in India both before and after the mutiny of 1857. Even during the mutiny, many more Indian sepoys in the company’s army remained loyal to the British for each sepoy that mutinied. The loyalty of the Indian soldier to his British masters was shaken neither by the plight of his countrymen under British rule nor by the racial discrimination he himself faced in his own beloved army. In fact, even today, the army of independent India too prides itself of its British origin and traditions! So, if these people are not getting recognized for the sacrifices they made for their foreign conquerors, then it is probably the effect of karma!
