GDP BIG DEBATE: ‘The govt may be right technically and directionally on GDP numbers and Subhash Garg may have overstated or even misstated his case but there is a kernel of truth in what he is saying and that is the elephant in the room which is the government has a huge trust deficit on data..’ former CEA @arvindsubraman on why he believes the Modi govt handling of data has created a fundamental trust deficit. listen in:
The entire fiasco over @Subhashgarg1960 is actually pretty silly. We forget the fact that statistics hide as much as they reveal. What he is stating is his opinion. You put @surjitbhalla with him, he will immediately look at these figures in a different way. So why go overboard with what Mr garg is stating? Take it as an opinion and move on.
Another thing Indian women put up with .. the inability of Indian men to apologise even when knowing they were in the wrong. Will @RahulGandhi walk his talk and ask @_SandeepDikshit to apologise on the Meloni comment.
You may like him or dislike him, but there’s no denying that he did a thoroughly professional job heading two key, demanding departments for a party that has now been in power for 12 years…..
Unapologetic in the face of criticism and relentlessly focused on the task at hand, @amitmalviya leaves behind some very big shoes to fill….
Casual sexism .. just another day in Indian politics ! This time, a woman world leader is the target.
If Congress wants ever to be heard on gender justice, Sandeep Dixit must apologise and apologise now. No excuses. No deflection. No double standards.
Say without fear @yadavtejashwi and his party will become future @Mayawati and her party of Bihar without doubt. @PrashantKishor will replace opposition party in Bihar soon. Mind you , he will not be @ArvindKejriwal .
Significant that after families of Police personnel, former Police officials are holding press conferences on MHA and Police procedure. Surely govt should hear them all directly rather than public statements?
This is whataboutery, do better. Just because they do it so we should defend such behaviour too won’t change anything. While the Gen Z have fought the good fight there’s no reason why we shouldn’t encourage better discourse and better language so as to ensure that they leave no room for complaint from those wanting to delegitimise their fight.
And for the abuse, I hope the girls realise, most of the words they speak are deeply sexist & misogynistic which come from a view that a man can be insulted only through the sexual dishonor or degradation of his mother, sister, or wife.
Exclusive: How does @PChidambaram_IN as a former HM and Cong leader respond to Rahul Gandhi claiming that pellet guns were used on ‘orders’ of HM Amit Shah? Is there ‘proof’ to make that remark in Parliament?
Sad. A minister who served many portfolios over a long career. He played a leading role in implementing the Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana, which expanded LPG connections to millions of low-income households. He oversaw reforms such as the PAHAL direct benefit transfer for LPG subsidies and the Hydrocarbon Exploration and Licensing Policy (HELP). He saw the Steel industry through trying times in the Pandemic. Even in education if you look at the work he did outside of NEET paper leaks it was solid.
His act of resignation is to be respected.
Truth be told, this rot doesn’t end with #DharmendraPradhan & neither did it start with him. The fact is the Education Ministry has been a mess since 16 May, 2014, when PM Modi’s BJP stormed to power. This govt has never had a grip on this sector, changing education ministers with alarming frequency. The most amount of bad press it has got for any sector beyond the economy has been education, and the worst newsmaker in its first leg of being in power was this ministry.

This is the condition of service road of Atal Path in Patna.
The quality of road was good but the Namami Gange project ruined it and there isn't any repair work planned!!
Why can't different dept work in sync?
If the road was to be dug for Namami Gange, a parallel tender should have been alloted for reconstruction of the road!!
But, who cares!!
@UDHDBIHAR@mishranitish please do something!!
After every major disaster in Delhi like fires and buildings collapsing everyone blames the politicians. But, the officials who did not check if the buildings were safe or not somehow always escape accountability.
Retirement of Upendra Dwivedi as the army chief on June 30 is both bad & good news for him.
Bad, because he tried very hard to become the CDS. Sadly, he did not realise that closeness to the NSA was the only qualification for the post.
Good, because now he can scream to his heart's content how he would have altered Pakistan's geography & history in Sindoor.2. No one will now give a damn to his nonsense.
Upendra hugely downgraded the seriousness of his office by such stupid utterance. He sounded more like a politician than a military commander who had done his war appreciation!
