जो सब्जी खरीदते हैं, लाइन में खड़े होकर वोट देते हैं, गोली खाते हैं —
वो “इत्यादि” हैं।

जिनके लिए यह सब होता है — उनके नाम इतिहास में दर्ज हैं।

इत्यादि का नाम सिर्फ FIR में आता है।

देश वो चलाते हैं। श्रेय कभी नहीं मिलता।

— राजेश जोशी

Chambers took USISPF role after meeting Modi, impressed by infrastructure spending.

Political continuity = contract continuity = Cisco's India pipeline open.

An endorsement dressed as geopolitical wisdom.

Chambers' India praise isn't unique to India.

At Fortune's Global Forum he praised Modi AND France's Hollande in the same speech — both opened govt contracts to multinationals.

Consistent pattern: praise whoever signs the deals.

In 2023, Cisco announced India manufacturing — targeting $1B+ in exports & domestic production.

India is now Cisco's 2nd largest R&D hub outside the US.

Every rupee depends on continued govt access.

What those contracts looked like:

▪ Nagpur: 750mi fiber, 3,800 cameras, 100 kiosks, 136 Wi-Fi hotspots
▪ 29,000 rural areas connected via Cisco for one state govt

All govt-funded. All Modi programs.

In 2016, Chambers personally announced $100M more for India.

$40M went directly to Indian startups — all tied to Modi's Digital India, Skill India & Startup India schemes.

Every Modi program = a new Cisco pledge.

The return was immediate.

Cisco's India revenue grew 41% in FY2016 to $1B+. Profit jumped 4x.

Direct result: Modi's Smart Cities Mission handing Cisco massive infrastructure contracts.

Right after Modi won in 2014, Cisco announced $1.7B investment in India — explicitly to "win more govt contracts" as Digital India launched.

That's not charity. That's a market bet on a government.

First: Chambers was NOT a sitting Cisco executive when he said this.

He was speaking as Chairman of USISPF — a 450-company US-India business lobbying group — at its very first summit in July 2018.

Don’t lose a leader like Modi — the world already knows his value.”

That “world” includes Cisco, which was making $1B+/year in India off government contracts.

Let’s break down exactly what John Chambers was protecting when he called Modi’s absence a “major risk.”

🔥 उत्तराखंड का दर्द —

जंगल से घास नहीं काट सकते ,
पर जंगल जले तो जेल जायेंगे !

DFO चमोली सर्वेश दुबे का फरमान:
“आग नहीं बुझाई = 1 साल जेल”

जिसे जंगल पर हक नहीं दिया,
उसे जंगल की रखवाली का बोझ क्यों?

ये न्याय है या मज़ाक? 😡

✅ Gross inflows: rising
❌ Net #FDI FY25: crashed 96%
❌ #Repatriation: decade high
❌ 2 states eat 51% of FDI
❌ Manufacturing underloved
❌ Round-tripping inflates numbers
India doesn't have an ATTRACTION problem

It’s a RETENTION crisis

🚨 THREAD: India was supposed to be the
world's hottest investment destination.

So why did net FDI crash 96% in one year
to just $353 million?

Here's what the numbers actually mean. 🧵

Billions flowing in from Singapore &
Mauritius? Don't be fooled.

In 2016, FM Jaitley called it out —
these routes were used to round-trip
Indian black money back as "foreign" FDI.

India amended both treaties in 2024.

They want India's BRAINS
