1. RBI lowered its GDP forcast to 6.6% from 6.9%. That's 30 points. And that's still the fastest amongst the major economies.

2. Petrol / Diesel past 100 is nothing new. That's around 7-8% increase which is still lower among any major economies.

But the concern is not fuel @110, it is E20, E80 or E100 impact on the older vehicles.

3. Electricity price increase is due to the increased debt of power distribution companies, global energy shocks and reduced subsidies.

Ohh, how can anyone forget FREE electricity.

4. Rupee falling is an area of CONCERN.

5. People started talking about net FDI these days? Indian companies are growing, they are investing in local manufacturing in foreign countries. So, there will be an FDI outflow.

But some "Net FDI" stats now?
Net FDI in Fy25 was $1B, and in FY26 was $7B, though well below 2021. That was also because of increased investment rush for PLI.

FDI inflow was $95B which was ~18% increase compared to the FY25.

FIIs exiting because of limited investment opportunities in semiconductors or AI compared to Taiwan or South Korea, weaker rupee.

This is also a major area of CONCERN.

@narendramodi मोदीजी, निवेश कीजिए पनडुब्बी, destroyers, corvettes, frigates, patrol vessels, research vessels, minesweapers, UULVs, और दूसरे जहाजों पर। हिंदमहासागर सुरक्षित रहेगा तो भारत सुरक्षित रहेगा

Agar middle class aapki top priority hoti, to aap unke tax burden ko thoda kam karte. Koi bhi chiz kharido to tax do. Usme bhi jo salary aaye usme bhi TDS kat jaaye. Ye Middle-class hi to hai jo desh ki tijori bhar rahe hai, jisse aap aur aapne mantri-gan log budget me dikhate hai.

Lekin Middle-class ko return me kya milta hai?

Wahi tuta hua road?

Wahi khraab condition me sarkari hospital?

Wahi sarkari school jaha par khud hi sarkari neta logo ke bacche nahi padhte, tuti phuti emarat, na baithne ke liye theek bench, na peene ko saaf paani?

Waise to ham middle-class ne aapka samarthan kiya hai, lekin agar aap aur aapki sarkar middle-class ko kuch degi nahi, to wo aapka samarthan kyu karegi?

Kadwa hai, lekin saach hai.

@ANI @grok, what is the real story behind this?

The obsession with PM Modi’s educational qualifications dominates headlines.

Yet, with or without degrees, he’s on the receiving end of the highest civilian awards from nations across the world 🌍.

From Saudi Arabia’s Order of Abdulaziz to France’s Legion of Honour — global recognition speaks louder than certificates.

India has grown leaps and bounds under Modi.

You can check the last picture as well. Perhaps, you might need another head after that.

India needs to invest across sectors that create jobs. But before that, the government must build an ecosystem that gives birth to great companies — not just jobs.
🧠 Invest in innovation.
🏗️ Build infrastructure.
💡 Empower entrepreneurs.

Strong ecosystems create strong economies. #IndiaGrowth #JobCreation #StartupIndia

There is a world to explore for trade, why not start with them instead of waiting on old hags?

The world is big. Start exporting to everyone. If someone likes the products that are shipped from India, they will buy more. If they are not satisfied, then you can always ask for their inputs in making the product better.

GeoPolyani on X: "India must review global markets, identify demand, and plan manufacturing to meet those needs. Once this plan is in motion, exports can diversify away from unreliable partners. 🌍 The world is vast — why wait on old hags? Start exporting everywhere. If buyers like Indian" / X

India must review global markets, identify demand, and plan manufacturing to meet those needs. Once this plan is in motion, exports can diversify away from unreliable partners.

🌍 The world is vast — why wait on old hags? Start exporting everywhere. If buyers like Indian products, they’ll buy more. If not, use their feedback to improve.

Bottom line: Don’t wait. Explore the world. Export to all.

India’s exports hit $441.8B in FY26, adding $202M from 1,821 new product–market combos 🌍.

NE Asia +21.6% ($41.6B), Latin America +7.8% ($16.4B), Africa double-digit growth.

1,821 new product–country combinations added in FY26.

North-East Asia exports +21.6% → $41.6B (9.4% share).

Latin America exports +7.8% → $16.4B (3.7% share).

@vermilionpixie Lionel Messi, the undisputed GOAT 🐐
8 Ballons d’Or, World Cup glory, and a trophy cabinet that speaks for itself.
No debate. Just legacy. 👑

@vermilionpixie It seems as if Messi read your tweet, took your criticism personally, and decided to unbookmark your tweet the very same day 😂

Time to hold HAL accountable.A deal signed in the mid‑2000s for 40 jets still isn’t complete.

And now, the same company promises 13 squadrons of a jet that doesn’t even have a prototype — let alone a flying machine.

India deserves results, not excuses.

Yes, road expansion is increasing quite well. But what about the quality?

China has more warships than the U.S., but still lags far behind in quality.

The quality of Indian roads is below standard. Period.

One rain washes away the road as if it never existed.

One day of travel on a newly inaugurated road opens cracks as wide as a motorbike tyre.

A rush of vehicles creates potholes as if the road was built upon them.

Such is the standard and quality of roads being built in India. Expanding the length of roads is important, but so is ensuring their durability.

Funny how a year‑old report rating India “C” is trending again — based on the 2011‑12 GDP base year that’s no longer valid.

India’s GDP base year was revised to 2021‑22 months ago, aligning with global standards.

Old data ≠ current reality.
Stop recycling obsolete narratives for clicks.

India’s PM must show REAL spine against Washington — not just “some.”

The so-called “world’s most powerful military” is now firing Hellfire missiles into civilian tankers with Indian crews in the Gulf of Oman. Three Indian sailors DEAD. Engine rooms targeted. This isn’t “naval blockade enforcement” — it’s cowardly desperation as America clings to fading dominance.

US leaders know China is rising fast. Their “win” in Iran? Just saving face. At least Russia confronts NATO head-on. America romanticizes its past glory in trade, tech & military — but real power is slipping.

If India stays silent or soft, we’ll be branded a weak state unwilling to protect our people or demand accountability.

Time to go global on this. Indian lives matter.
