The hype about Indian manufacturing is wrong.
We are underestimating it instead I guess.
India did $10 billion in electronics in 2014 and is doing north of $115 billion now.
iPhones went from a rounding error to 14% of global production in five years. None of that is Atmanirbhar headline material it's vendor base accretion, tooling shops getting better, embedded engineers finally learning what tolerance means at volume.
China didn't become China in 2015.
They became China between 2003 and 2018, and most of those years looked exactly like this boring, derivative, "they're just assembling."
We're somewhere around year 6 of the same curve.
The 50 GWh ACC PLI won't make us a battery superpower.
The 200 component vendors quietly getting good enough to supply Foxconn while it's here will.
The real story isn't on the press release.
It's in the Tier-3 shop in Hosur that finally figured out how to hold ±50 microns on a stamping :)
Or maybe a shed in Rajkot, where the technician is figuring out composite enclosure fitment.
Another banger song released.
Lyrics talks about missing somethings after TMC lost:
- corruption
- fear
- atrocities
- blue white
- bhaipo convoy
- unemployment
- scams

His books on sapta-sindhu bring a unique perspective and is an education for all of us. He genuinely believes in the entrepreneurial ability of Bengalis and will be able to create “employment” and “wealth generation” across the population
2/2
If Sanjeev Sanyal becomes the finance minister of WB as is being rumoured - that would be terrific. Keeping his academics, knowledge and experience (which is of the highest order) aside - his personality and energy is infectious. 1/2
@sarkar_swati Agreed 💯- this article was in very bad taste. Many NRBs (I mean the পরিযায়ী labourers, even others) played a stellar role in the change. They came all the way - at times went through serious hardships to come and vote. This “stereotyping” was ill-informed and extreme.
A non Bengali living in Delhi mocks non resident Bengalis and Bengali icons like Satyajit, Rittwik Ghatak etc. https://t.co/CKEHQxTDMu
It is plugged by usual suspects: eg, Sanjeev Sanyal, Hindol Sengupta etc. Both these have Bengali names and have always, or for long lived outside Bengal. So if they are Bengalis they are also non resident Bengalis ! These characters have long abused Bengalis on SM, Bhadroloks etc to please their BJP-RSS Delhi ecosystem. So have some of their wives, who are non Bengalis.
Another tidbit. At least one of these characters was talked of in Bengali media as BJP candidate from Krishnanagar North. Eventually he wasn’t. Likely because of his obnoxious posts on Bengalis. He is still trying hard to get a share of the Bengal piece of pie. Wonder if this is an attempt to secure the same by pleasing RSS. Another of these characters was not involved in the campaign that brought the spectacular victory to BJP. Wonder if the resulting bitterness is at the heart of this divisiveness.
Interestingly, a long time NRB Swapan Ji who is currently Rasbehari MLA and is talked of as a potential cabinet minister is yet to plug this article.
I am attributing the divisiveness on part of Sanyal, Sengupta and their various Sanghi Ji chamchas to grapes are sour emotion, until further information.
For the record several NRBs traveled to Bengal only to vote. Wonder how these scumbags know exactly how they voted.
Sincerely hope WB BJP keeps these wannabe parasites away.
@NimaiPondit@sanjeevsanyal@_pallavighosh Satire is great .. just that it’s the time, place and context - which I thought was not appropriate. Having said that, the worst of the lot are the “Joy Bangla” sloganeers- they have been thrown into the dustbin of history - trying to clutch onto any straw
"The Renaissance Required in West Bengal" - my article in today's New Indian Express where I argue that Bengal's economic revival depends on recapturing its civilizational identity after decades of deliberate manipulation. As the civilizational roots of Bengalis were deliberately chipped away, it left an intellectual and socio-cultural vacuum. The sneering of “aanteil” intellectuals cannot fill the emptiness. This is the source of Bengal’s political anarchism, mindless trade unionism, militant student activism and deadwood intellectualism; all merely trying to fill that hole in the heart. As an aside, a similar story can be told of another state - Punjab, the other state that was Partitioned.

I have never seen the tough as nails @AmitShah get so emotional as he did today while offering heartfelt tributes to the 321 martyrs & their families whose sacrifices paved the way for this glorious occasion
Dr Biswajit @kholahawaindia I will never forget the impact the event in Kala Mandir made. It was a limited audience - but the spirit was unparalleled.
Such spirit translated in the huge change in our state and opens up the promise and opportunity. Thank you 🙏 and your team
West Bengal should have its own version of Nuremberg trials to bring to justice those perpetrators who committed unspeakable crimes against humanity.
And the victims of these atrocities MUST NOT BE FORGOTTEN.
@BJP4Bengal must instill a culture of remembrance through memorials and awareness campaigns.
To all Bengalis for active working age - it is time to work to rebuild our homeland, launch projects in Bengal, it is time to tap into the entrepreneurial spirit that once made Bengal a global economic hub.
