India’s exemplary GDP growth of 7.8% during Q1 of FY 2026-27 is a herculean feat.

The collective strength of our people ensured India delivered such growth despite oil price shocks and supply chain issues in the midst of global uncertainties.

Doomsayers were doomed and India bloomed…yet again!

How much of India’s infrastructure was added after 2014?

A comparison with the preceding decade puts the scale into perspective:

Indicator | 2004–14| 2014–26
DFC | 0% | 100%
Solar | 2% | 98%
Ex. Ways | 11% | 85%
Tapwater | 7% | 79%
Metro | 9% | 75%
Port Cap | 15% | 71%
Rail Elec | 7% | 69%
4Lane NH | 29% | 60%

Infrastructure is built over decades.

But some decades build more than others.

POV: You are watching India’s space era unfold.

Chandrayaan. Aditya-L1. SpaDeX. XPoSat. Gaganyaan.
And now, a whole new generation of Indian space startups taking off.

Too many milestones for one video.
So we made one anyway.

India’s economic story has two very different chapters.

India’s GDP per capita fell from 35.2% of the EMDE average in 2003 to 27.8% in 2013.

Since 2014, that trajectory has reversed.

India reached 37.2% of the EMDE average in 2026 and is projected to reach 46.2% by 2031.

The EMDE group itself comprises 150+ emerging markets and developing economies, representing roughly 85% of the world’s population.

So this is not simply India growing in isolation. It is India steadily closing the gap with the broader developing world.

The lost decade was followed by a decade of catch-up.

Violence gets intellectualised, Terrorists get sympathised with, Soldiers get interrogated. If that sounds familiar, you know who you are.

The symbol we see on Indian flag is a Vedic Hindu symbol.

This symbol was designed and worshiped by Hindus thousand years before Gautama Buddha was born. And 3500 years before Indian flag was designed.

People can cope, but facts are facts.

But some decades change its trajectory more than others.

Intel and AMD were both interested.

We told both to bugger off under the visionary leadership of world's best economist PM Shri Manmohan Singh and Finance Minister Shri Chidambaram.

Raghuram Rajan and Pappu both opposed manufacturing till a couple of years ago. All quiet now.

There is a finished computer chip at a new plant in Sanand, Gujarat. India put it together. Almost none of the parts inside it are Indian.

That one chip explains how far India's chip effort has got, and how far it has not. Here's what has been built, and what has not. 🧵

This 4,500-year-old terracotta dice from the Indus-Saraswati Civilization is a powerful reminder of India’s living heritage. Dicing is also mentioned as a popular game in Rig and Atharva Vedas (two of the four sacred Vedic scriptures).

From symbols and craftsmanship to rituals, yogic practices, and collective memory, numerous elements of ancient Indian civilization continue to thrive in the daily social and religious life of Indian society across regions and communities.

Civilizational inheritance is not just about geography or ruins, it is defined by living customs, symbols, rituals, and unbroken cultural consciousness. India is the enduring living continuity of the Indus-Saraswati Civilization.

The polytheists have won. The army of Islam lost. The temple stands strong, protected by the might of a billion Hindus.

Proto-Elamite?

The Pashupati seal has an elephant, a water buffalo and a rhinoceros. Ancient Elam was centred in southwestern Iran. Elephants, water buffalos and rhinoceroses are not native to ancient Elam. BTW, they are native to India. Also, the figure is seated in a Yogic posture. Is Yoga also Elamite now? Seriously?

Your profile says you are a professor. I don't mean to sound rude, but your students deserve a refund. And seriously, Western universities need to improve their hiring practices.
