      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 Secondly his predictions are always wrong and outdated.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.

    • @person1858
      @person1858 Před 10 měsíci

      ​@@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.

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.

    • @rka-truthalwayswins5127
      @rka-truthalwayswins5127 Před 10 měsíci +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 Před 10 měsíci

      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.

Yes, India's service sector is growing but it's not enough. We need a lot more to become an industrial power house.
    It is important that leaders from the business start leading our country. We can't shoe away the subsidy system as 45% of our country is still malnourished. But we need to find answers to these questions. We need to find them quick. It's time we play on the front foot.

    - 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.
