Finaly he agreed that Bharat is now moving from low income to middle income category without realizing that he is talking facts. Idiot rajan claims that index is poor: example the DEMOCRACY index of Bharat as per west calculation is at 110 which is below Pakistan where military rules most of the times, Afghanistan better than us. Why this fraud index announcement by West? It is to project the investment in Bharat are not in safe hands. So Bharat is planned to rollout NEW index based on the same criteria soon.

Per capita income was below $1000. Now doubled to $ 2500. The pro-active judiciary, but 50 million cases have been pending with the judiciary for decades.

After teacher for 5 years in one of the prominent undergraduate colleges of University of Delhi. She did not get permanent positio.Because of the politics in the selection of candidates.

Next per Capita Income (PCI): When Congress left the PCI was USD 890 that took 65 yrs of Congress rule and now it is USD 3120 that is 3.51 times better now under Modi. Why fooling? Finaly he agreed that Bharat is now moving from low income to middle income category without realizing that he is talking facts.

At times bomb few locations to earn more money. So they believed it to be the ideal life forever. But then 2019 article 370 abrogated caused many changes slowly n steadily. This change was a magic for stone pelters. Today in 2024, the scene is that J&K people started talking that there is a world where people live peacefully n happily without hurting others. It is not only J&K had such head aches, but also many states even today having it. Example, DMK n ADMK for vote capture started giving freebies to common people started by Karunanidhi in 1969.

Data well taken. However can you ever believe this govt data after the recent electoral bond fiasco? You are going by the public data. NPA‘s (gross and net) although have an objective basis (three month delinquency), the final consideration on the books is a subjective decision. With this autoritarian regime heading the PSB’s ,its anyones guess how the data is put out. UN, Worldbank data are thrown out and only indigenous data ( provided by home grown Niti Aayog) is given limelight. So while your reading on the Rajan‘s tenure data may be right, one cannot say the same about this regime since the data itself is cooked up (data integrity)to serve one's own interest.

Unless there is something wrong people shouldn't become a road block for their own government . Every country in the West developed without democracy. Once they were developed and done with colonizing and slavery, they imposed democracy wherever they could. You and people like Raghuram are useful agents for them and nothing more.

What a sarcastic statement about MOTHER LAND by Rajan that Bharat would take 5 to 6 yrs? Bharat is at USD 4 T with growth rate of 7.6 %. The xpected growth rate as per IMF is 8.2 %. Leave IMF data, take only our Bharat Finance rate 7.6 %. You just do the progression, we wil touch USD 4.62 T by 2025. Do u think / feel this fraud Rajan is literate? Now do u understand y Modi kicked this guy? Next per Capita Income (PCI): When Congress left the PCI was USD 890 that took 65 yrs of Congress rule and now it is USD 3120 that is 3.51 times better now under Modi. Why fooling?

​@@dheerajgoyal7362 NaMo is given the responsibility by the people of India to run this country for a certain period. That period is not infinite like any democracy. Hence, NaMo is doing what NaMo thinks the best for India. Raghu may agree to disagree with the $PATH taken by NaMo, and that is 100% OK. Raghu's comment is Raghu's comment. I'll encourage Raghu to follow his $PATH when INC is in the government next time. We need a strong opposition for a strong democracy. Until then, he can continue to disagree.
