Joining the Journal of Development Economics as a Deputy Editor.

A few years as an AE taught me how much rides on small decisions — which referees you pick, how long someone waits. Trying to get that part right.

#WATCH | Oslo, Norway | On the flood situation in Nepal, Wadia Institute of Himalayan Geology (WIHG) Associate Professor, Dr Swapnamita Choudhury Vaideswaran, says, "... I could see that there was hardly any rainfall, about six millimeters. But if you remember the Dharali incident, there was hardly any rain in the valleys... Right now, we can only speculate and not conclude much... We need to understand how we can become more aware and more prepared to understand which of our glacial lakes we need to start monitoring that can pose a risk to Uttarakhand, Himachal Pradesh, or Kashmir. The climate change scenario is demanding that we become more prepared."

On this very special day, it’s important to reflect on our role towards accelerating the pace of reforms for fulfilling the vision of Viksit Bharat @ 2047.

While celebrating the 80th Independence Day and Har Ghar Tiranga campaign, sharing some memorable moments from Delhi Chhatrasal Stadium and Delhi Secretariat. It is indeed a day to reaffirm our commitment towards nation-building and inclusive development with imperative of growth with equity

Was great to be part of an insightful conversation on “Bridging Fractured Borders : Redefining Dialogue in Multipolar World” held at Constitution club by @worldbrotherorg

Would like to thank Sh Kapil Khanna ji @kapilvhp making me a part of this fraternity. It was a pleasure to hear Sh Temjen Imna Along @AlongImna especially his articulation on the subject in chaste Hindi. The artists who presented a rich tapestry of unity in diversity through their rich cultural performances also deserve special commendation

On the 45th foundation day of NABARD organised in Delhi, I had the pleasure of interacting with 4th generation artisan Shri Giriraj Singh from Uttam Nagar. In his stall here, he proudly displayed a picture of a moment he cherished when Hon'ble Prime Minister Shri Narendra Modi @narendramodi interacted with him and motivated him during the G20 summit in Delhi. We are proud of such inter generational transfer of indigenous knowledge and skill and it’s indeed our collective responsibility to promote such artistic traditions.

We put a science lab on wheels and drove it into rural UP schools. Students who barely spoke in class started running experiments and asking ques no one taught them to ask. Curiosity, confidence, aspirations all up. Test scores +0.22–0.34 sd. At $5.56/student/yr. New paper ↓

Bihar’s turnaround is real.
10 years ago: 41.3% poverty vs WB’s 30.4%.
Today: Bihar at 4.4%, WB at 6%.
Infant mortality: Better than the national average, and way ahead of its other neighbour, UP (imr & nmr)
Still work to do, but the old stereotypes are outdated.

Operation Sindoor vs. Operation Bunyan Ul Marsoos

Some of the firsts

One :
Realizing the stalemated status or irrelevance of the UNSC, India didn’t seek to request sympathy from the five of the 1945. Operation Sindoor clearly demonstrated a strong sense of self-confidence and real strategic autonomy and sovereignty.

Two:
For the first time, India shredded the notion that terrorists are separate from terrorist backers and thus targeted both. The notion that certain powerful rogue officers of Pakistani State authorize terrorist attacks was also shredded. This is a new paradigm. Another type of deniability must be invented.

Third:
There was a battle going and a war being planned. In the midst of the battle, Pakistan negotiated for a loan from the IMF, which surprisingly approved it. It matters because most likely Pakistan isn’t fit enough to finance a war but has capabilities to engage in battles. A war can't be won with IMF loans anyway.

Fourth:
The strategic patience and cultural restraint have a limit. That limit was tested on April 22 by the Lashkar Teyba terrorists. Perhaps they wanted what followed. They didn’t benefit from their adventure though. Perhaps they wanted to humiliate India publicly. They seem to be mentally stuck in 2008.

Fifth:
Size matters. Every inch of Pakistan was under reach. I always thought the Nur Khan airbase was the best defended base of Pakistan. It isn’t. The grarrison town of Rawilpindi as the heart of Pakistan’s military and its best-known airbase was hit.

Sixth:
Pakistan lost the monopoly over Islamic Fatwa. The Indian ulema presented a fatwa of their own to their own government. Thus, the religious dimension always exploited by Pakistan to earn sympathy from the Muslim Ummah evaporated. Deoband is located in India by the way.

Seventh:
Keeping secrets in a democratic society is next to impossible, but very little leaked out of India, which shows enormous skills in adhering to principles of operational silence and public unity to assist in safeguarding of secrets.

Note: I have seen very little or no visuals from Operation Bunyan Ul Marsoos to comment on. Seemingly, it never took off the way it was propagated. The ceasefire saved Pakistan’s skin. Pakistan military leadership has made statements and claims over their own achievements, but the Indian skies remained open, flights weren’t cancelled, and I haven’t seen visuals of missiles landing in Delhi or Amritsar.
