We have a fancy for studies by McKinsey, Boston Consulting, Hain, Credit Suez. How many of their consultants gave been to smaller towns and real rural areas

[@srinivaskumar2517]

excellent question.

[@Kunal-jp3um]

you can't have it both ways, we have grassroot politicians for that

[@nishantjain392]

It is quite frequently said in interviews and discussions that bringing in private players will bring more efficiency. So I just want to ask one question that people sitting in govt offices are not competent enough to run organizations and if the answer is no..then policy makers who are also the government employees who runs the govt should also be incompetent and which means that govt too is incompetent to run the government

[@oruspicarous1112]

Not necessarily because these planners tend to already have had experience in the private sector for decades before they go into government, so they’re not career-bureaucrats.

[@deepaksingh5317]

Need more time to discuss these issues. Short time duration creating confusion

[@ranban282]

26:00 Exactly what my company's doing. Subramanian & my management think alike!

[@zerointozero2211]

The moderator is rude and arrogant. The speakers are brilliant.

[@pushprajsingh4302]

Mr. Kant started this concept from INTACH Kerela Dec. He's a great visionary. Tourism can be a huge Pvt sect & toe the line of Demographic Change.

[@slashybluesy]

With both the people being from the government, they just agree with each other and no one questions all the wrong assumption. On the point of increase in salary for labour the moderator just repeated what they said and not correct them by telling them how it is a function of supply and demand. I guess she was there to just ask the questions and not question whatever they were saying. This would've been so much better if they got someone to question all the claims they were making.

[@ddmaheshwari7059]

Planners should go and luve in rural and interior areas to have reality check.

CEO, NITI did well on reform articulation and expects the skilled persons are not paying the deserving wages. CEA talks of traps, long term solutions and failed to convince on the job creation. Rise in aggregate demand is linked to the limited wealthy spending their purses. There is no wide dispersion of spending post pandemic. Most poor are well taken care of by the state governments and partly by the Union Govt. My calculation of the sops to the poor revealed the tax threshold exemption.

[@rajsh7657]

Awesome conversation....brilliant..thought provoking...new knowledge

[@venkataramansubramanimani1124]

Agriculture gives the maximum job creation for a certain level of investment. We need to create agricultural growth and industry related to agriculyure should be in addition to industrial growth. We need to be food upplier for the world like china became the factory of the world

[@ranban282]

Extremely intelligent these two folks are India's economy on decline for four consecutive financial year now but and given the current state it seems it take another two years to reach the level of economy as it was at least a year and half back. But these guys keep lying and selling hollow dream and retaining their position and enjoying power. All jobs gon SMSE and all small business hunder hammer since 2016 and look at the intelligent guys how they enjoy power and live a king size life.

[@arunsar7893]

"given the current state it seems it take another two years to reach the level of economy as it was at least a year and half back." - Where are you getting your data from? There is a consensus that India will reach Mar FY 20 Number sometime this year and exceed it by atleast 4% by the end of the Financial Year. And i don't think they are lying or selling hollow dreams. It's just that you don't understand what they are saying.

Mr. Kant looks overconfident. Reforms have really changed the direction of India, but i don't see it seeping into the lowest section immediately as he seems to suggest.

[@rameshpudhucode6862]

Amitabh Kant always hype. We are going to make cash disappear, ATM disappear s, digital india, startup India, pharmacy India, medical India, education india, this India, that India. Reality is not that easy. They do not go and see rural areas

[@pardeeptandon]

In Indian society, the responsibility of education and skill development was given by society to Brahmins and Pandits. Have they failed us?

[@varunkhugshal9049]

They had no such responsibility, they begged and pursued education

[@mum5952]

Macaulay closed all traditional systems and taught Indians to be clerks and govt job seekers. Nehru and Congress continued it. Temples had the shaalas attached to them and education was free for all. Society paid for it through the temple. India was a sharing society before the invaders destroyed the temples, imposed high taxes and then the Colonisers completed the job which the Congress then perpetuated.

[@harshsand678]

Jam trinity and pfms and poverty alleviation are due to the Manmohan Singh ji

[@mum5952]

Complete nonsense statement. AADHAAR issuance was accelerated by tying it to KYC otherwise it was meandering and it was done by BJP. Creation of bank accounts was pushed and driven by BJP. Moving all subsidy and grants to these accounts by using Aadhar linked accounts made these accounts viable for banks while ensuring less leakages. While ManMohan started Aadhar he had no idea what to do with it. You cannot just make a claim that it was Manmohan's idea. It was Nandan Nilekani's idea that Congress failed to implement and the BJP has been able execute very well.

[@mayankm5200]

Whole JAM idea was implemented and conceptualised under modi govt. Under MMS govt, there was no concept of linking adhaar to bank account.

Modi Government is wasting the Demographic Dividend of India. The jobless rate is the highest in 45 years today. We have economically performed worse than both Bangladesh and Pakistan.
