@MEAIndia This weaponisation in the name of "sanctions" is threat to free trade & ease of sea navigation. It severs global supply chains & has a detrimental impact on pricing. Its high time non US nations come together & condemn this big daddy economic coercion.
@khabrimishra Hospitals are high capex buisness. Even to built a tertiary 70 bed hospital in a tier 3 city, capital requirement goes >100 cr. That is 1 cr+ per bed. Then come even higher operational costs. Most corporate hospitals run on narrow EBITDA margin compared to capex & opex.
@drvarunpain Nope. Stent costs max 40k. Proffesional fee is 25% approx of package.
Remaining bill is made through consumables, Ix, medicines, bed charges etc. Its the margin here which translates to profit which is not too much given the fact that hospitals are high capex buisness.
@drprashantmish6@themahavir No doubt hospitals increased prices of other components to compensate govt. price capping on stents but it still lowered cost to significant extent.
Today angioplasty can be done withing 2 lakh, but earlier some hospitals used to charge 5 lakh for just stent only.
@drvarunpain Nope they are all capped at present.
Stent component is still capped at 10k for bare metal stents & 38k for DES.
2 lac+ is usually the cost of complete package which includes components other than stents like profession fee of doc., consumables, Ix, bed charges etc.
@Ashneer_Grover BS!! That 8000 crore subsidy was not 1 year but it was disimbursed over 4 yrs & it not just included UPI but also rupay CC transactions. Second, this subsidy was not meant to be given to NPCI directly, rather it was given to recipient's bank first & then it went to UPI entities.
@narendramodi Its the third consecutive financial year with record growth of 7+% despite ongoing war in west asia, it is exceptional but this is derived by service growth which accounts for 55% of GDP, rather than manufacturing growth. If service exports ever take a hit, growth will dampen.
India’s exemplary GDP growth of 7.8% during Q1 of FY 2026-27 is a herculean feat.
The collective strength of our people ensured India delivered such growth despite oil price shocks and supply chain issues in the midst of global uncertainties.
Doomsayers were doomed and India bloomed…yet again!

@ANI From being a threat to national security to giving up arms & flattering on ramps, this is truly a success story of governance. The sun of LWE is finally at its dawn with continously shrinking cadre which will completely collapse in next 10 years.
Very Impressive !

Thousands gathered in Rawalakot before marching towards Muzaffarabad as protests over governance and electoral reforms continued ahead of regional elections.
More than 45 people have been killed and hundreds injured since the unrest began in June.
In my latest #TharoorThink column in the @IndianExpress, I discuss the government’s mishandling of the student protests this week and demand an urgent course correction. Our students should not be battered and bruised in the streets before their voices can be heard in Parliament.
@_YogendraYadav Founding fathers of our constituent assembly built strong democratic instutions which can never be run coercively from streets. This anarchist mindset of installing mobocracy is outrageous. If people want change, they will vote against govt in next elections.
@dpradhanbjp@RahulGandhi@INCIndia What a gentleman ! As per him paper leak is not exploitation but oppn. supporting student protests is, Protesting infront of 7, lok kalyan is causing "public inconvenience" but students commiting sucide is not.
Are you for real?
