A great meeting with Mr. Andy Jassy. I welcome Amazon's record $48 billion investment in India. This will create new opportunities for our youth. At the same time, it shows the growing interest across the world to invest in India!

Seems there's a new project one year before UP elections. To disillusion Hindu voters in UP using Hindu issues. Another communist method to weaken govt and win. We will soon see many Hindu issues come out of UP played up by GLISCO-DS media. Especially the ones funded by IPSMF. The communist forces have already lost many times trying to instigate divides using minority issues. So critical theory and regime change foreign labs of the world have created a new method. Incite Hindus against their leaders to win.

"PM Lateral Entry Yojana" is here :) Great initiative by @PMOIndia.

I would still suggest that India increase the capital & compensation by incentivizing private companies to help fund India's innovation - by buying govt bonds of a new $100 billion SWF for AI & deep tech.

The Tragic Story of How India Was Deindustrialized

Between 1813 and 1853, 3 Acts of British Parliament killed 3 world-leading Indian industries.

Bengal cotton, South Indian wootz steel, and Indian Ocean shipbuilding - all demolished within forty years. Manchester, Sheffield, and Lloyd's of London grew on the corpses.

Govt has been incredibly supportive of our AI efforts through the IndiaAI Mission and other schemes. Zero support from any Indian industry. Thanks to NVIDIA, we trained India's first Geospatial Foundation Model (think of it like ChatGPT for satellite data) SLM using ISRO data. Dropping soon!

Officers of the Prime Minister’s Office congratulated PM @narendramodi on becoming the longest serving democratically elected Prime Minister of India in consecutive terms. Over the last twelve years, he has provided leadership characterised by stability, transparency and a steadfast commitment to good governance, inclusive development and national progress.

The DS identified this man as a major threat to their easy manipulation of India very early on. They desperately tried to stop him from ever leading the country.

The moment he became CM, they ignited issues, branded him with every possible label, attempted to sanction him, and even revoked his visas.

They unleashed tens of thousands of pages of propaganda reports against him, both inside India and abroad. They weaponised the opposition and the courts to flood him with cases from every direction.

Yet he overcame it all. To become the PM of the world’s largest democracy. Despite all the hit jobs, sabotage, and propaganda, he remains the most popular leader on the planet.

He has turned every adversity into an advantage. "Being Anti-fragile" is his mantra. And he has made India anti-fragile too. We have seen the nation emerge stronger from every crisis thrown at it.

I believe he will also resolve the infowar crisis. The main force behind it will be weakened and broken by him. It will be a fitting feather in his cap before he retires as not only India’s longest serving PM, but its most impactful one.

History will remember him as the one who transformed India not just in infrastructure and development, but forged a confident, self-reliant nation that stands proud on the global stage.

[Narendra Modi @narendramodi]

Over the last 12 years, India has witnessed many transformations and at the core of these changes is the welfare of the poor and downtrodden. We have always been inspired by Antyodaya and our effort has always been to ensure that the benefits of development reach those who were left behind for decades. From Jan Dhan accounts and Direct Benefit Transfer to Swachh Bharat, PM Awas Yojana, Jal Jeevan Mission, Ayushman Bharat and more, every initiative has been driven by a simple objective of ensuring people have dignity and opportunity.

An infographic tabulating 26 indicators over the last 12 years has been going viral - I verified the data and benchmarked these indicators against a 7% real GDP growth rate, and 20 out of 26 held up.

India has indeed done very well to grow through a period of geopolitical, macroeconomic and domestic political economy crises and pushes. Even so, in key areas such as transportation (including ports and airports) and energy (especially coal production - which is a travesty because India has vast coal reserves), growth has been below target or just about sufficient.

But what would it take to grow output at 10% a year - the elusive double digit growth number? The numbers spell out that massive policy reforms and liberalization will be required.

India’s birth rate has fallen below replacement.

Among those most educated, India’s birth rate fell below replacement many years ago.

Google which is cash surplus, just announced an additional capital raise of $80 bn.
Google annual profit is $160 bn, last quarter $62 bn, and market cap $4.5 trillion. That is close to total profits and market cap of all Indian listed companies put together.
It’s a wake up call to all companies to invest into the future, whatever the present maybe.
Now that IPL is done and dusted, time for India to focus on business of business.

[Aravind @aravind]

This one paper by BIT Jharkhand graduate, Indian origin lead researcher Ashish Vaswani (@ashVaswani) and co has helped add $10 trillion to the world's market capitalization. That's 150x Jharkhand's GDP and 2.5x India's GDP. Let that sink in.

These youngsters in India are doing a great job finding issues and vulnerabilities on govt sites and IT infra.

They are also saying, at least @ni5arga told me, he gets "boilerplate thank you" from CERT_In and other departments. Nothing else.

But, imo, these youngsters must not just be acknowledged but must be rewarded and used as assets of the state.

Why hire only costly "cybersecurity experts" now when sitting all along with simple security issues that can be discovered by kids from home?

It would be good if these youngsters are all acknowledged publicly, rewarded, and invited to be a part of some CERT_IN initiative to find security and other issues in all govt sites and apps if they like to.

They will feel rewarded and acknowledged, the public will feel the govt is acting and giving opportunities to the talented, and GoI benefits from low cost fixes for low hanging fruit issues before it blows up.

I always feel India is sitting on so much of free high quality talent in everything from cyber security to infowar to AI (just read about how much Indian youngsters contributed to github) and OSInt, but are not being used by the state ecause of rigid sarkari systems and some kind of "we know it already" attitude.

GoI needs to create some sidetrack program for the talented in India to work with the Govt in many areas. Also, a site for getting internships with MPs for Indian college students will be good.

Imagine you are the guy who makes ICE engine. And you are in early 1900s. Everyone will own a car and motorbike in the coming decades. Every company will need your engine.

Are you a bubble if the market values you at just 20x because that guy selling steam engine for the last 100 years was valued at only 2-3x?

Another thing: Extrapolating the future based on the past is going to go very wrong. The future is going to be drastically different. We are already seeing it.

[Aravind @aravind]

I first got it as a hunch. Then I thought about it a lot. Now, I would like to state it:

AI and tech leapfrogging by a few nations, is poised to cause colonization 2.0 - an era where other nations are digitally and strategically subordinated using the tech.

Normalization of colonization by western tech bros, including Elon, too points to what they gonna do.

There's some concerted campaign going on using high summer temperatures in India, trying to blame it on the govt and incite people against the govt.

But just in last few decades, 1998, 2002, 2005, 2010, 2015 all were severe heat waves with many cities touching 40+ and more than 1000+ deaths recorded all over the country.

Let me be blunt - most issues, from climate to accidents to infra to students' happening today were much worse before in India. It wasn't so much in public perception because of less or no SM/internet/media penetration.

But now because India has a young Gen-Z population, born only in late 90s and 2000s, who don't know about the past except the current govt era, there's an organized attempt to incite them by taking every issue in India, amplifying it as the "worst", making it as "only happens in India", and blaming it squarely on the govt.

Taking screenshots of weather maps when the sun is overhead India at 2pm to claim only India is suffering from such high temperatures and heat, not even Arabia or Africa, is nothing but sinister narrative setting.

The idea is to destabilize India politically, weaken the government, manipulate the public to oppose certain strategic projects, force India to align with certain countries and globalist objectives. As simple as that.

While in India, people may see this as this opposition party or that leader using such tactics to attack the govt, the actual strategy and seeding of this narrative is coming from outside India.

The politics just reacts to it in India. Even if the BJP were in opposition and the INC was the govt, and if they wanted to destabilize the govt, they would have used the same tactics.

[Aravind @aravind]

Please don't be this pessimistic. It is already getting setup. In the next 1-2 years we will see some great models come out of it. India now not just has a few private AI companies with LLMs, but also training 1 trillion param models. Indian govt's BharatGen (by IIT Bombay) are literally training trillion parameter mother models. And compute is scaling fast too. It's not like India is sitting doing nothing.
