Global Economy To Suffer Amid Synchronised Monetary Implications: IMF Report

Sayani ChakrabortyAugust 12, 20220

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) released a revised World Economic Outlook (WEO) in July 2022, lowering its projections for global economic growth. According to the most recent projections, the expansion of global production would drop to 3.2% in 2022 and 2.9% in 2023, an almost 50% decrease from 2021's 6.1% expansion. As a whole, growth projections have been lowered across the board, but they have been revised down significantly for the advanced countries, where they have gone from 5.2% to 2.5% to 1.4%. Growth in EMDEs, on the other hand, will decelerate from 6.8% to 3.6% before recovering somewhat to 3.9% throughout the timeframe.

India In Search Of Equality That Can Stand Up To The Test Of Time

Sayani ChakrabortyAugust 12, 20220

Many people say things like "we are the first political party that has made it possible for a person from the underprivileged socioeconomic classes to be elected to the highest position in the nation" in reference to the elections conducted to determine India's 15th president. What follows, at least for some, from such an expression is as follows: Because this claim would obliquely suggest that a politically correct party or coalition of parties occupy a special and perhaps superior moral position to give meaning to inclusive democracy by supporting, in this case, an Adivasi who has been historically excluded from occupying the highest public office Some of the politics of symbolic presence is likely to argue that producing the election outcome in favour of an Adivasi or a Dalit woul

State Opposition Gains Or Losses, May Not Matter Nationally: Suggest 2019 Election Trends

Sayani ChakrabortyAugust 11, 20220

The opposition finally won a political victory in 2022, when its two main leaders, Nitish Kumar and Tejashwi Yadav, returned to power. Over the last 12 months, BJP's grip on politics has tightened. It dominated the presidential and vice presidential elections and won in Uttar Pradesh, Uttarakhand, Manipur, and Goa. It also overthrew the MVA government in Maharashtra by causing a split within the Shiv Sena. Congress has tried numerous different strategies after its defeat in five states, including Punjab, including the lacklustre chintan shivir and the impending statewide padayatra. The lustre of Mamata Banerjee's crushing defeat of the BJP in 2017 has worn off. The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and Arvind Kejriwal, its leader, have a long way to go despite their recent victory in Punjab. Ot...

How Bad Is It In Madhya Pradesh To Deal With The Bureaucrats There?

Sayani ChakrabortyAugust 11, 20220

Concerns about the 'functional autonomy' of state civil officials have been expressed in light of the increasing number of Indian Administrative Service personnel who are retiring voluntarily or facing disciplinary action. The functional liberty of public workers in Madhya Pradesh has come into question when six government officials, including five Indian Administrative Service officers, retired voluntarily in the previous five years. Varad Murti Mishra (52), who joined the list in January after being promoted from the state administrative services, is the most recent addition. Even though he still had seven years of service time available when he retired on August 4, he decided to leave on his own will. Mishra told The Wire that he believes there was once a period when individuals ente...

Bihar In Need Of Economic Development: A Critical Analysis

Pooja YadavAugust 8, 20220

The name of the state, Bihar, comes out of Vihara– a word from Sanskrit and Pali monastic literature meaning abode. However, for several of Bihar’s–more than 100 million– people, the goal of life has become to settle elsewhere. It’s not only an etymological tragedy to start with but also a way of pain that folks from the state have, over the years, normalized. they need to acquiesce to the actual fact that the worth of success begins with the loss of home. If Bihar was a rustic it'd be the 12th most populous country in the world, sandwiched somewhere between Japan and Ethiopia. If time will be a measure, Bihar’s per-capita income today stands at but the per-capita of India in 2009-10. One in three Bihari lives under the yoke of the poverty level. Unemployment reigns high.

Jagannath Temple Of Puri To Open Their Treasury; Here’s What You Need To Know!

Arpita SarkarAugust 8, 20220

Four years ago, the doors were opened to the legend of Jagannath temple in Puri on the orders of the High Court. The scandal involved the 'hiding' of one of the three keys to the service's treasury. The Archeological Survey of India (ASI) completed some restoration work on the repository during the Rath Yatra that year on the orders of the High Court. This time, the temple administration may agree to the opening of the jewel vault due to the collapse of the wall of Jagannathdev's sanctum sanctorum. Last Wednesday, part of the wall behind the Balabhadra between the three idols seated on the Ratnavedi in the sanctum sanctorum of the Jagannath temple collapsed. It spread anxiety among everyone from servicemen to devotees. Later, however, it was learned that the problem was not that serious...

New Vice President, Old Politics: How Can Opposition Defeat BJP?

Sayani ChakrabortyAugust 8, 20220

Jagdeep Dhankhar's emphatic win in the vice-presidential elections is another indication of the BJP's supremacy in national politics. BJD and YSRCP, two "neutral" regional parties, were more likely to vote for Dhankhar than disenchanted opposition parties. In presidential and vice-presidential elections, the national ruling party always has an advantage in capturing votes from parties that are not completely aligned with it. Regional parties understand that a vote against the Centre isn't worth the effort of antagonising these two positions, which have little political value. But the near-disaster of the monsoon session should prompt the BJP to rethink its strategy. Legislators will always have dissenting views, regardless of who is in charge. In parliamentary politics, legislation,...
