India is not the 4th most equal country in the world.
We re-did correct & comparable calculations:
India ranks 176 (& not 4) out of 216 on income inequality.
On calorie consumption inequality, it ranks 102 out of 185.

Kasturba Road in #Bengaluru hosts major museums like VITM (10L visitors/year!), but has no proper zebra crossings or pedestrian crossovers. Visitors dodge speeding traffic & squeeze through median gaps.
Why does this city ignore pedestrians?
@BBMPCOMM @DULTBangalore — please act!
Condition of arterial/main roads in #Bengaluru is pathetic. Yet @BBMPofficial is taking up useless work in residential areas. Here's the scene on 4th Cross Shankarapura for the last 5 days. Access to garage and parking completely blocked.
