Public Demand : We need more tests. More hospitals. More protection equipment. More economic packages.

Government of India : On public demand, we have re-started #Ramayan

🤯
Don't get me wrong, I love #Ramayan. And has nothing to do with me being religious or not - the show is a masterpiece. I know many Muslim/Christian/Parsi friends too who love it!

But at times like these it really feels counterproductive to do stuff that doesn't even need doing!!
So this thread has been circulated in BJP IT Cell Whatsapp Group. I am happy some people are making most of this #LockdownWithoutPlan life (More gaali more money.)

To educate them, adding more reasons as to why Ramayana is not what the Public Demand was.

@MalharBarai I have a lot to say. So bear with me:

1 The relief packages announced were not direct infusion of extra money - but advance payment of what the poor would get anyway in 2020's later months. They are being given that as upfront to battle current scenarios. +
@MalharBarai + 2 The only effective good thing they announced were : additional cylinder / family AND healthcare professionals getting insurance cover. So I admit they did something for the poor - is it enough? NOT EVEN 10 %

+
@MalharBarai 3 - What RBI announced are delays not direct infusion of money to any industry / setups. So basically if they see no revenues for two months - they are still going to pay the interest on capital / running cost loans anyway. That is no way even close to helping economy.

I don't know about elections. But last week in Rajasthan - I have heard innumerable stories about small businessmen just wrapping up their companies. All impacted by #Demo and #GST. You guys can make a mockery of people's problems - but truth is people have been impacted.
My husband and I were in a car discussing GST and Modi along with Gujarat election - our driver suddenly says - Are Modi jee ko toh bas karna hai 'Mere Pyaare Bhaiyon aur behenon'. Madame humara mehendi ka business tha - band kar diya. Ab gaadi chala rahe hain.
My husband's cousin starts chatting up GST and how our company is handling filing. I gave him a lowdown on how we have hired a firm to manage.

He says - For TWENTY TWO days no business happened for us.

Do you understand what is 22 days without work?

The Citizenship Amendment Act in #India has received much intl attention and generated heated debate and protests that provoked a police crackdown and rioting, including the recent #DelhiViolence that resulted in over 50 deaths. Why is the #CAA problematic?

A thread…
What is #CAA? It provides a fast track to Indian citizenship for specifically non-Muslim migrants from Afghanistan, Bangladesh, and Pakistan already in India; removes the illegal migrant label for specified groups; and protects them from legal action in regard to citizenship.
The government argues the #CAA’s only purpose is to protect persecuted minorities in neighboring countries, a laudable goal in of itself (and a key reason my org @USCIRF was formed), and has no impact on Indian Muslims.

Long thread on Indian Budget 2020-21. Let’s be cynical for a change & question the rationale of initiatives. Because I can’t understand some things the way they are. I’m sure however that we as a nation do believe in good luck. Else we seem to be cruising without compass.
If you couldn’t understand why we needed 2.5 hours speech to convey this budget, you’re not alone. To simplify, GDP = Consumption + Investment + Govt spends + (Exports – Imports).We need all cylinders to fire, for #India with highest working age population in the world.Let's see
Basics first:
On a Rs 30.4 lac cr budget, govt will earn 74% & borrow rest 26%. Of this, 23% will be spent on interest payments. On balance 77%, Defense takes 11%, police forces 4%, subsidies 7%, Railways 7%, tax administration 5%, pensions 7%.

Should #India allow #Huawei a role in building the country’s #5G network? @AKanisetti and I have tried to provide a roadmap for the government in our new discussion document. takshashila.org.in/takshashila-re…
We argue that India’s decision on Huawei in the context of 5G has strategic implications and should not be looked at only from the prism of economic benefits.
India needs to think about Huawei’s checkered history and linkages with the #Chinese Party-state, the potential of and threats from 5G and the country's position in the world of tech geopolitics.
