Today Raghuram Rajan:
1️⃣ The reported 23.9% contraction in the economy is likely to be even worse when informal sector data is accounted for. (1/3) bloombergquint.com/business/india…
2️⃣ Without relief, households skip meals, pull their children out of school, send them to work or to beg, pledge their gold to borrow, let EMIs and rent arrears pile up.
Similarly, without relief, small and medium firms stop paying workers, let debt pile up or close permanently
3️⃣ The recent pick-up in sectors like auto is not evidence of the much awaited V-shaped recovery. It reflects pent-up demand and will fade as we go down to the true level of demand in the damaged, partially-functioning economy (3/3)
I know it’s obvious, but still for a common man to understand on an economic front, let’s see how WORST Mr.5trillion is as compared to Dr.Manmohan Singh.
Let’s take a look at some real-time economic indicators which capture the economic decisions of the average Indian (1/12)
TWO WHEELERs SALES GROWTH: MMS’s era 12.44% per year
Modi’s era 5.35% per year
The growth rate of 5.35% per year in motorcycle sales during the Modi years is indicative of the agricultural distress &, accordingly, the slow rise in the consumption power of Rural India (2/12)
CAR SALES GROWTH:
MMS’s era 7.92% per year
Modi’s era 4.42% per year
Car sells are an imp indicator of how urban India feels on the economic front, bcoz no1 forces any1 to buy car. They feels confident enough to make a down payment or pay monthly instalment on the car loan 3/12
Shri Krishna signifies Ananda (bliss) So by Janmashtami we celebrate the birth of Ananda
Actually ‘BIRTH’ is not the right word. It is the day when that joy became MANIFEST
Philosophy says Krishna was never born. He existed all time, bt 2day he just manifested as ShriKrisha 1/5
Message of Janmashtami:
Krishna says “One who sees me everywhere, in every1, & sees every1 in me is truly intelligent”
So, who recognizes the Parmatma as AnandTattva (BlissElement) that is manifest through Creation is truly intelligent. Everything has emerged from that. 2/5
What does one need for this?
We need to be innocent at heart; we should have that child-like innocence.
It is said – ‘Bhole bhaav miley Raghurai’ (One attains the Lord through the innocence and purity of feelings) 3/5
