    The wealth of businessman Gautam Adani grew 12 times over in the two years until 2022 to Rs 9.5 lakh crore while half of India’s working population - 90 crore people - lost hope and even stopped looking for livelihood options.

    "You were...once most respected economist.. " according to Harsh Mander. To say the truth, I came here only to hear Prabhat.

    The idea of universal social rights seems to be the universal mean towards which all movement should be directed ideally. But perhaps it needs to be pressed upon the consciousness of the masses in higher decibels.

    We tried that till 90s. Everybody was poor. Since then many people have improved their lives. Yes not all. But the situation overall is better than the 90s when everybody was poor. I dont want to be POOR!!!

    Writing the title in Urdu along with English and Hindi doesn't cost you anything but it attracts the Urdu population which is six crore plus in India itself.

      but the video is fully in english only, so having the title in another language is gonna mislead/ disappoint people.
