Kavitha remarked to ANI while speaking: “I am ready to give all the answers. The truth shall remain the truth. I am not related to this liquor policy.

So they want that somehow my name is dragged into it.” According to the Central Investigation Agencies, Kavitha benefited from the kickbacks in Delhi's now-retracted liquor legislation, which led

From Hindenburg Report To Stock Rout: A Critical Analysis Of Adani Catastrophe

Sayani ChakrabortyMarch 8, 20230

The enormous fluctuations in the market value and fortunes of the Adani Group are almost unreal, like something out of a fairy tale. Since a short seller agency, Hindenburg Research, made serious accusations regarding the use of widespread illegalities by the group, I believe history will view this as a singular event, at least for India, due to the magnitude and speed with which the changes occurred, both during the spectacular ascent and the subsequent decline. Adani's route to success began in 1999, when it joined with Singapore's Wilmar to become an importer of palm oil. In a short amount of time, seven corporations affiliated with the Adani group accumulated control of practically all of India's infrastructure, including seaports, highways, airports, data storage facilities, defe...

Decreased Private Demand Slows Economic Growth, Suggesting Policy Changes

Sayani ChakrabortyMarch 7, 20230

In line with RBI's projection but below the mainstream opinion of experts, GDP for the third quarter (October-December) of 2022-23 was Rs 40.19 lakh crore, up by 4.4%. Even if GDP revisions for the prior quarter and fiscal year are ignored, data from the third quarter still offers alarming signals about the rate at which the economy is losing steam. In the face of rising interest rates, the positive effects of a return to normalcy in the economy have had a chilling effect on private consumption. In addition, against the backdrop of a worldwide economic recession, manufacturing has decreased for the second consecutive quarter. In the third quarter, private consumption spending increased by 2.1% to Rs 24.77 lakh crore. When compared to the prior quarter (July-September), this one saw ...

Is Rahul Gandhi Simply Following In Footsteps Of PM Modi?

Sayani ChakrabortyMarch 7, 20230

On January 30, Congress president Rahul Gandhi completed his Bharat Jodo Yatra (BJY) in Srinagar. He was satisfied after five months. After walking nearly 4,000 kilometres, the final ceremony in Srinagar had to go smoothly despite the bitter cold and snow. He was happy to play snowballs or sheen mubarak with his sister Priyanka. He originally planned to end his Ekta Yatra at Raj Ghat, but the day before he decided to hoist the national flag at Lal Chowk, like Dr. Murli Manohar Joshi and PM Narendra Modi did in 1992. Rahul Gandhi waved the flag at Lal Chowk after dismissing it as a BJP-RSS stronghold, resembling Modi twenty years earlier. In December 1991, during the height of J&K terrorism, Modi organised Dr. Murli Manohar Joshi's Ekta Yatra from Kanyakumari to Kashmir. After...

Sayani ChakrabortyMarch 7, 20230

How to mitigate the harmful effects of disinformation spread via social media. Learn from Tamil Nadu's example. The state apparatus lost no time in responding to the rumor-mongering that migrants from north India in TN had endured "attacks" when the video message initially surfaced in Bihar streams. In direct contacts with migrants and also on social media, the CM, ministers, police, and governor, and industry staged a rapid and strong reaction to quash the rumours and ensure Hindi-speaking migrants of their safety in TN.

Rahul Gandhi Says At London Event, “At The Heart Of BJP’s Ideology Is Cowardice,” Deets Inside!!!

SHIVANI UJJAINWALMarch 6, 20230

Rahul Gandhi, the head of the Congress party, attacked the Bharatiya Janta Party (BJP) harshly during a meeting with Indian diaspora in London, claiming that "cowardice is at the core of their ideology," referring to Foreign Affairs Minister S Jaishankar's comments on China. Rahul Gandhi mentioned, “They have an ideology of hatred, violence, a disrespectful ideology that attacks people because of their ideas. You must have noticed one thing. This is in the nature of the BJP and the RSS. If you have noticed a statement by the foreign minister, he said China is much more powerful than us. How can I pick a fight with them? At the heart of the ideology is cowardice. Savarkar has written in his book that once he and his friends beat up a Muslim man and that day they felt great happiness.

The Rationale Behind Naming India’s Public Parks After Its Diverse Flora And Fauna Instead Of Historical Figures

Sayani ChakrabortyMarch 3, 20230

What if, instead of naming our public areas after kings, netas, and nobles of varying types, we looked to India's incredibly rich flora and fauna, its magnificent rivers, and its majestic mountains? A public interest litigation (PIL) seeking a renaming commission focused on "ancient India" was properly dismissed by the Supreme Court. India, however, need a fresh approach to naming that is not constrained by any one particular interpretation of the country's troubled past. The urban population share is projected to rise to 50% by 2050, with an increase of 416 million people to urban areas. That calls for a massive investment in new facilities. Whenever anything new is built or a new street or plaza is created, it naturally requires a new name. Without a new approach to names, this pr...
