I urge all popular Indian podcasters in all languages to teach the merits/demerits of capitalism (and socialism) to our country. Capitalism has its flaws, but it’s the only proven system which can lift us out of poverty and make a nation worth reckoning.
Last one on this topic, and I have been holding this in myself for a while.
For centuries, class divides kept the labor of the poor invisible to the rich. Factory workers toiled behind walls, farmers in distant fields, domestic help in backrooms. The wealthy consumed the fruits of that labor without ever seeing the faces or the fatigue behind it. No direct encounter, no personal guilt.
The gig economy shattered that invisibility, at unprecedented scale.
Suddenly, the poor aren't hidden away. They're at your doorstep: the delivery partner handing over your ₹1000+ biryani, late-night groceries, or quick-commerce essentials. You see them in the rain, heat, traffic, often on borrowed bikes, working 8–10 hours for earnings that give them sustenance. You see their exhaustion, their polite smile masking frustration with life in general.
This is the first time in history at this scale that the working class and consuming class interact face-to-face, transaction after transaction. And that discomfort with our own selves is why we are uncomfortable about the gig economy. We want these people to look our part, so that the guilt we feel while taking orders from them feels less.
We aren't just debating economics. We are confronting guilt. That ₹800 order might equal their entire day's earnings after fuel, bike rent, and app cuts. We tip awkwardly, or avoid eye contact, because the inequality is no longer abstract. It's personal.
Pre-gig era, the rich could enjoy luxury without moral discomfort. Labor was out of sight. Now, every doorbell ring is a reminder of systemic inequality. That's why debates explode. It's not just policy. It's emotional reckoning. Some defend the system (“they choose it”), others demand change (“this isn't progress, its exploitation”).
And here’s the uncomfortable twist: the unsaid ask of clumsy ‘solutions’ isn’t dignity. It is about returning to invisibility.
Ban gig work and you don’t solve inequality. You remove livelihoods. These jobs don’t magically reappear as formal, protected employment the next day. They disappear, or they get pushed back into the informal economy where there are even fewer protections and even less accountability. Over-regulate it until the model breaks, and you achieve the same outcome through paperwork instead of slogans: the work evaporates, prices rise, demand collapses, and the people we claim to protect are the first to lose income.
And then what happens?
The rich get their old comfort back. Convenience returns without faces. Guilt dissolves. We go back to clean abstractions and moral posturing from a distance. The poor don’t become safer, they become invisible again: back in cash economies, back in backrooms, back in shadows where regulation rarely reaches and dignity isn’t even debated.
The gig economy just exposed the reality of inequality to the people who previously had the luxury of not seeing it. The doorbell is not the problem. The question is what we do after opening the door.
Visibility is the price of progress. We can either use this discomfort to build something better (which we keep doing continuously as delivery partners are our backbone), or we can ban and over-regulate our way back into ignorance. One of those choices improves lives. The other simply helps the consuming class feel virtuous in the dark.
To witness the Dharma Dhwajarohan Utsav at Shri Ram Janmabhoomi Mandir is a moment crores of people in India and the world have waited for. History has been made in Ayodhya and this inspires us even more to walk the path shown by Prabhu Shri Ram.

ताकि इनको पता चले की जनता इनकी सच्चाई जानती है
जनता को इन नचनियाों का बायकाट करना चाहिए....ये जनता से कमाते है लेकिन उनकी भावनाओं की कदर नही करते
देश के हीरो केवल सैनिक होते है या वो जिन्होंने इतिहास में देश की रक्षा के लिए युद्ध किया
जिन्होंने देश के योद्धाओं का सम्मान किया उसका सम्मान है वरना जनता तुम्हारा बायकाट करेगी

From being denied GPS during Kargil to using our own NavIC in 2025—we’ve come a long way.
The U.S. once denied us cryogenic engine technology. We built it ourselves. They blocked supercomputers—we created PARAM. After the Pokhran tests, they imposed sanctions. We pushed forward regardless. Now, they hesitate on hypersonic missiles.
But this isn’t the India of old. This is a resurgent Bharat—one that neutralized 11 enemy airbases with cold precision and extreme prejudice.
We no longer seek approval or validation. The colonial hangover is over. We build. We act. We lead.
जितने भी सेलिब्रिटीज हे जिसके मन में पाकिस्तान प्रेम आए इनकी डायरेक्ट छुट्टी करवाओ

Spoke to few NRI friends who are all over the globe, they had no idea about yesterday's DGMO press briefing. I sent them a link to it. An hour later, a lot of them have changed their opinion from what the western media fed them. If we do not help frame the narrative, no one will.
