How much of India's infrastructure was built after 2014?

• 100% of Dedicated Freight Corridors
• 98% of Solar Capacity
• 85% of the Expressway Network
• 79% of Tap Water Access
• 75% of Metro Rail
• 71% of Port Capacity
• 69% of Railway Electrification
• 60% of 4-Lane National Highways

Infrastructure is built over decades.
But some decades build more than others.

Amazing that instead of East Asia, AMD wanted to Make India its Semiconductor Manufacturing Hub and was investing 3 Billion$ in a Fab in India back in 2005 but it all fell apart just because,

When their Equipment came it got stuck at customs and wasn’t cleared leading to return!

One of the "joys" of social media is that no matter what your qualifications and accomplishments are, there will be someone who would equate you to trash. I am sure Professor Kamakoti's cup of joy is overflowing at this characterization by a senior politician. 😀

Chinese value labour and industriousness. Indians value degrees and sarkari naukri. Outcomes for all to see.

Arjun -->T-90
Zorawar --> Sprut

Army will do the same thing here for sure.
>Demand A thing.
>When done, ask for B.
>When done, claim that tech is obsolete and demand A+3 and B+4 for future proofing.
>Rinse and repeat till import option is viable & they can claim emergency requirement.
>Induct sub-standard imports in small numbers at hugely inflated prices.

Another surety is that chamchas and adjacents will defend this high iq move too.

Google which is cash surplus, just announced an additional capital raise of $80 bn.
Google annual profit is $160 bn, last quarter $62 bn, and market cap $4.5 trillion. That is close to total profits and market cap of all Indian listed companies put together.
It’s a wake up call to all companies to invest into the future, whatever the present maybe.
Now that IPL is done and dusted, time for India to focus on business of business.

वैश्विक संकट के इस समय में हमें कर्तव्यों को सर्वोपरि रखते हुए कुछ संकल्प लेने होंगे और उन्हें पूरा करना ही होगा। इसे लेकर मेरा यह विशेष आग्रह…

India muddling thru the economics of defence - spending big, but spending sub-optimally and arnd archaic mngt structures w/nary a thought on sustainability and optimisation. China offers lessons, if we are willing to learn.

I don’t know about you guys, but I just feel a numbing sadness and a burning sense of shame….. This is as much of a Duncan Sandys moment as it can possibly get… On the brighter side -now that IAF is placated can ADA be focused on TEDBF?
