    I live in rural India and all category of people live in my village from Brahmin to shedule tribe . 10 years before,my village was suffering from naxelite.I also suffered ,but the growth specially in income of our villagers from all category is just phenomenol. we have seen this growth in 7-8 years .the income has increased ,electricity,sanitation, roads development projects,internet these all things are available now,which has increased the quality of life.And not only my village the neighbour villages has grown same as my villages.

    About police incompetency @46.34 , My mother's gold chain was snatched while she was riding to her school where she was a teacher. After 2 months, police caught that chain snatcher and recovered all the gold which he stole and melted through a jeweler. I still remember that day when Gujarat police called my mom and told her "please collect your gold from the police station madam". Since that day I learned that Indian police is not that bad.

      What is so honest about him??? Every Indians who travels and does comparative studies on holistic development knows this fact"India has deep systematic problems". However how Nitin Gadkari is establishing infrastructure within 8 years, whole America, China and Western world couldn't do it in 40 years. Secondly his predictions are always wrong and outdated. Thirdly he compares India with small European countries facility and development, India is a massive country who can shift its progress in massive scale.

      ​@@unmanifested9217The reason europe couldn't do it that fast is because they were the first people ever to do it. Everything was new for them. China learnt lessons from them and by now, infrastructure is old news, everybody knows how its done. Thats why we are able to do it that fast, and co.e up with gati shakti and national logistics scheme and all this. Trouble is, while some aspects of development have been fast-tracked in India, others have been too slow to catch up. Why do you think we're such a dirty country? Because plastics developed very quickly in India, government regulatory mechanisms, waste disposal, and recycling infrastructure are still crap. Others did it slowly, but their governments kept up in terms of regulating things. Our government needs to do 200 years of British development in the next 30-60 years. No government, however well intentioned, however brilliant, can stay on top of this amount of change in this short a time period.

    • @rka-truthalwayswins5127
      @rka-truthalwayswins5127 Рік тому +2

      Abhijit Chavda bases his analysis on evidence unlike AIM with half truths & partial analysis like:
      1. Hindus along with Parsis forced British to wage war for opium sale to China!!
      2. India should adjust on POK with Pakistan: He doesn't consider that Pak has already stolen Indian lands without any exchange of the separatist population!!
      3. He says EU imposes strict budget deficit limits unlike Indian states without knowing that most EU states rarely follow those limits!
      All in all, he is as much a Ghonchu as he claims Indians to be!

    • @LapisPhilosophorum222
      @LapisPhilosophorum222 Рік тому

      Your second analysis is spot on. But can you elaborate on the Opium issue? I too feel that Abhijit said that willy-nilly. Because the British even fought the Chinese for this issue and the ((Opium wars)) took place.
      In the history of mankind, *never* have I ever come across the colonizer/oppressor waging wars for the benefit of their servants. Han, *IF* lets suppose -- the business class of India at that time benefitted somehow -- they must've fed on meagre crumbs left by the British. @@rka-truthalwayswins5127
      And in the second Opium war, the French and the English were allied against China. Did the French give their "dirty money" to these alleged Indian businessmen too? The French never had a hold on Bombay or other Parsi community-centric regions-- to get involved and fight their wars for them.

    =====
    Between 15 and 20 mins mark, Raj brings up 3 ways to get power
    1. Encroachment (Russia currently IMO)
    2. Debt Cycle (China IMO)
    3. Mind-space (Pop Culture, US/western world)

    Projection about India:
    In 2021, >$35000 household income,only 5Mil Family
    In 2030, same criteria, 25Mil Family
    More consumption power, more money
    Only viable option is India for FDI for the world.

    Macro Problems of India
    - Regulatory, tax mechanism are in shambles.
    - Most productive part of the population is the most heavily taxed part of the population.
    - No incentive to going up the ladder; and make more money.
    - Most unproductive part, most subsidy is applied there. (Farming IMO)
    - Fiscally irresponsible, No upper limit on subsidies like EU states.
    - Police to Population so low, also low quality
    - Malnourished 45%, 33% stunting, cognitive stunting too.
    - Yearning power >> Earning power

    Another massive intellectual dose..what a podcast.. loved it.. I loved the counter and encounter game you guys played.. Dr Abhijit is an asset for his global strategic understanding and he speaks from his heart backed up by brain.. couple of points I observed are like Dr Abhijit's analogy of India as that Bhikari in temple was not appropriate in terms of India is being looked at as a biggest market and world know it has a purchasing power..we don't beg and get it free.. but of course his point of skilled brains to absorb that technology is a reality.. coming on to your point of optimism, it's great to hear you but you missed Dr Abhijit's main point of pessimistic.. we boast our digital growth and that leap frogging but the base technology is from West.. where is our innovation.. where is the steps taken for manufacturing industry based on our own innovation.. dream of every other Indian college student is to get to West and work.. recently I heard about a data that almost 40 percent of US start up have Indian brain involved.. we need to create that base infrastructure to stop our brains being enslaved by west and I think that was Dr Abhijit's point..but thanks for such a wonderful podcast.. I think you also should think about a roundtable with such brains like Smita Prakash did with these guys.. may be a good year end podcast..
