Just to be clear, Moody did the raise from 6 to 7% in Sep26 itself and now it is retaining the same 7% in Nov26.

Every news agency had got this wrong in their news channel. Can't even do basic research before posting such news.

@rahulroushan @Baliyan_x Exactly. When constitution was formed, Reservation was carry forward as it is (except for in educational institutes where Nehru introduced via First Amendment to the Indian Constitution in 1951).

People have no idea that Reservation is older than constitution.

First in my bloodline to witness Japan (a country that pioneered bullet trains with its Shinkansen in 1964 and is among the world's leading railway technology powers) ordering train equipment manufactured by India!!!

Just to be clear, this isn't the first time we are exporting a Propulsion system. To be precise -
* We have already exported 5,000+ propulsion systems since 2016.
* Previous export destinations- Germany, France, Italy, Spain, Romania and Mexico.
• India's cumulative railway exports reached $3.35 billion (₹26,000 crore) between FY17 and January 2026.

But Japan taking it is special, as it is a leader in this area.

Additionally, Railway propulsion systems account for nearly 40% of a train's value. So, it propels us further towards exporting our complete train sets to the world from 2029.
Fingers crossed for the same.

@AbhishBanerj Only MMS had the honour of gifting India the worst CAD of all time.
Even 1991 was better than 2013.

@Deepak_Reddy17 Ofcourse

And India accomplished this without the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party!

It is almost as if China's
economic miracle didn't require a police state.

And that is exactly why China is doing everything possible to sabotage, dehumanise and disrupt India's growth.

[Noah Smith 🐇🇺🇸🇺🇦🇹🇼 @Noahpinion]

India's poverty reduction is the second biggest in world history, just behind China's. India is now growing at around 6.5%, which is about the same as China in 2014. Manufacturing is growing right along side services.

More people should pay attention.

@ajktwt Let me present a comparative to this.
This is LnT during two eras.

[A Regular Indian @Regular__Indian]

So, post VB-G RAM-G implementation from the Modi govt to replace MGNREGA, states are not able to find enough people to give employment due to mandatory cost-sharing by states and tighter norms to plug misuse.
The Centre will save Rs 50000 cr in this FY due to this!!!!

States which used to be biggest fund takers in MGNREGA are struggling hard now to qualify under VBGRAMG.

So, the Modi govt is smartly solving two things
1. Forcing states to fund the rural employment program by using their own funds. This will compel states to reduce their freebies scheme.
2. Since norms are tighter to get employment under this scheme, rural labour can finally be freed up for manufacturing jobs. MGNREGA by MMS distorted the entire labour market for years and starved the manufacturing sector of labour

Ladies and gentlemen, that is how you solve the state's freebies problem and shift labour from agriculture to Manufacturing.

@sharankumar620 They are celebrating. Learn to see the difference

[A Regular Indian @Regular__Indian]

This lady wouldn't have lost a single second of sleep when CRPF soldiers got killed every year by Naxalites.

But when Modiji is celebrating with CRPF when not a single CRPF soldier has been killed in last 12 months for the first time in 47 YEARS, she is outraging.

On behalf of every responsible Indian citizen, we should say SORRY to our Indian Army. 🙏🙏😢

@ArjunM1412 We can. We need to add energy storage system and pumped hydro to make it dependable

[A Regular Indian @Regular__Indian]

India's renewable capacity has crossed 300 GW, almost 4x in a decade under Modi govt.

The IEA report(3rd Nov26) has now put a number on what that bought:
More than $100 billion in coal and gas import costs avoided between 2011 and 2025.

Without the solar, wind and bioenergy added since 2010, India would have imported ~110 million tonnes more coal in 2025 alone.

And the savings are accelerating:
* ~$240B cumulative by 2030
* ~$35B a year by 2030, more than India's entire non-coking coal and gas import bill in FY25
* Solar providing ~60% of the savings, Wind ~30%

And how we have achieved this-
* 220 GW+ of utility-scale capacity awarded through competitive auctions since 2010, which pushed solar costs among the lowest in the world
* India is now the world's second-fastest-growing renewables market
* It's also the 2nd largest manufacturer of solar PV modules, behind only China

Biofuels are doing the same job on oil. Domestic biofuels cut crude import dependence by ~4% in 2025.

Now, we are focusing on Gas where Import dependence is projected to rise from 52% in 2024 to ~71% by 2030.
The IEA sees compressed biogas as the domestic substitute. India's feedstock could support up to 75 bcm a year, close to today's total gas demand.

Every GW built at home is fuel not bought abroad. That means less pressure on the rupee, less exposure to price shocks, and more control over the energy bill.

Our renewable story started as a climate commitment. The numbers now say it's also one of the biggest import-substitution programs in the country.

The way of life which Majority of Indians(barely surviving) lived in 70s/80s/90s when Gandhi family ruled India and was living in palaces and eating mangoes with a knife!!!!

The resentment of dehatis is not about culture; it's about their inability to accept that others can enjoy a different way of life without chindigiri,dehati envy disguised as cultural pride

@unrave20 Should be 7.8%+

[A Regular Indian @Regular__Indian]

Coal giving major electricity now doesn't negate the savings which we have made.
Had the curry renewal capacity won't be there, coal would have to do even more heavy lifting with more imports needed.
That is exactly what IEA report is calling out.

And despite global price collapse, this govt has done superb in pushing renewables. To ignore that using global price collapse is stupidity at best

[A Regular Indian @Regular__Indian]

@yaSubramanya1 It is. We are late into it but building it now. Next 3-4 years are painful but things will be good post that

[A Regular Indian @Regular__Indian]

Good move from the govt.

India has banned the export of lithium-ion battery black mass and specified battery waste with immediate effect.

As we are building our domestic battery recycling ecosystem, this is a needed step.

Already we have taken many steps-
* ₹1,500 crore: Government incentive scheme for critical mineral recycling under the National Critical Mineral Mission.

* 58 companies: Approved under the scheme, with proposed investments of nearly ₹5,000 crore and pledged recycling capacity of 8.5 lakh tonnes per annum across battery waste, e-waste and other scrap.

* LOHUM: Already operates 25,000 tonnes/year of battery recycling capacity, alongside lithium, cobalt and nickel refining facilities.

* EPR mandate: From 2027FY, battery manufacturers must incorporate prescribed minimum quantities of domestically recycled materials into new batteries.

So, we are working hard to recover lithium, cobalt, nickel and other critical minerals from its own waste, process them domestically and feed them back into manufacturing.

We are building our battery circular economy.
