2 Defense corridors were announced in 2018
1st one is TamilNadu
2nd one is Uttapradesh
8 years over.
I leave it your judgement on,
Now where these 2 states stands on Defense corridor Projects
Why are all my BJP friends in a tizzy because of my remark? Yes, our economy is doing well but India's overall debt is not a happy occurrence. Foolish of anyone to defend this! It's embarrassing for a scientist to explain commonsensical economics but here goes (pardon rough and approx figures as writing on the go):
1. India’s public debt is not some ₹270 lakh crore irrelevant figure; the Centre alone owes about ₹201 lakh crore. Add the states and general-government debt is over 80% of GDP, far above the old FRBM ceilings of 40% (Centre) and 60% (Centre plus states) that were supposed to be hit by FY25. Interest already takes 40% of the Centre’s revenue; the FY27 bill is budgeted above ₹14 lakh crore. That is not a footnote. It is the first charge on every tax rupee.
2. The Centre has at least tried to put a share of borrowing into capex. The states have not, uniformly. A growing slice of state borrowing is paying for salaries, power subsidies and unconditional cash transfers; twelve states alone set aside about ₹2 lakh crore for women-centric cash schemes in FY26, not for assets that service the debt. Several high-debt states are, in effect, borrowing to give money away.
3. India is not America. It has no reserve currency, a still-narrow income-tax base, and cannot roll deficits the way the dollar can. Most of the debt is domestic and rupee-denominated, so this is not a classic external-debt crisis. It is a compound-interest and politics problem. Fast nominal growth can shrink the ratio for a while; it cannot indefinitely outrun a 40% interest-to-revenue claim plus election giveaways.
4. If growth slows, the interest bill, state deficits and crowding-out of private credit will produce something problematic: higher real rates, less room for capex, and a fiscal vise that closes just when the next shock arrives.
5. So let us be sensible. Praise the govt for its good policies and be critical of the things that are not right and need to be set right.
6. And @pradip103 and @MumbaichaDon, my brothers, I don't do monkey balancing. And I don't make reels as I am not on Instagram, never have been. So please don't get personal - arguments are never won through getting personal.
7. But I never mind personal barbs from my RW and BJP friends because they are friends and their heart is in the right place. But I do get embarrassed by the eagerness of some of them to make a fool of themselves publicly at times! Cheers and have a great weekend.

🗣️ “Every day, there are reels calling "Thalapathy a hero" & crediting him with decisions that NEVER HAPPENED.
It’s all fake news. This is clearly a manufactured campaign, not organic.
Influencers are pushing it. On this survey, Hard to believe a Tamil Nadu CM having this kind of popularity as a PM face in the Northeast, but.not in the South.
This is manufactured. To what extent I don't know."
If anybody has the time listen to this interview. @sivaetb breaks down point by point on the importance of Parandur, why Chennai needs it, why the current govt will struggle to look for alternate and why Meenambakkam isn't enough !!

Finally, a politician made a solid point on reservation.👏🔥
Q: Do you think SC/ST reservation should exist?
Ravi Kishan: “Look, I come from a village and I have seen discrimination against SC/ST people, so there’s no doubt reservation was necessary”.
But now I have seen many SC/ST people get government jobs because of reservation. So they should not get reservation.👍
Many poor students from Brahmin are also struggling to afford good education. That’s why from now reservation should be based on economic status, not caste.🙏
@singersrinivas Adequate for how long sir? 5-10 years? And what after that? Who will accommodate cargo?? Chennai's is India's electronics hub and literally all is shipped via air. We are losing advantage. If we don't built it now, Chennai's 2nd airport will never happen. It's already getting far
4-5 Trees of 15-20 feet height have been cut & removed illegally by Bilal Restaurant infront of their premises on the Pallavaram Thoraipakkam Radial Road. These trees where planted by residents & many volunteers around the area in 2022 between the GST Road to Keelkatalai Lake. Request Highway officials to initiate stringent action. @CMOTamilnadu@Chief_Secy_TN@chennai_Highway@AadhavArjuna@DISTRICTCPT@COPTBM@tnforestdept@Moefcc
@blumount22 This project dates back to 2022-23. Every ground work has been done from tender, feasibility report, DPR. The project has broken ground, works have started and the firm has even spent money for it. Now you cancel it. Simply don't understand this. What's the issue??
