India enters the big 5 in manufacturing toppling South Korea. At current growth rates, even considering rupee depreciation, India will displace Japan to become the world's third largest manufacturer (> $1 trillion) by 2029.

Also,

1960: $3 billion -> 2015: $328 billion
2015: $328 billion -> 2025: $781 billion

So India has added as much in manufacturing in the last 10 years as it added in the last 70+ years.

🚨EXCLUSIVE: US Navy ignored desperate calls from Indian crew as sailor fought for life

The crew of MT Celestial repeatedly called the US Navy on VHF Channel 16 on 8 June, desperately reporting severe vomiting bouts of Indian seafarer Nishanth Uirthanathan: ship records seen by Sputnik India.

There was no response. On 11 June, he stopped breathing.

The US Navy is still refusing to allow the corpse to be evacuated.
