Why did '09 not sustain? Why do we think that 2020/21 will sustain?

Preparing for the #Pandemic and accelerating #Growth by creating naturally high value-adding, low capital-intensity jobs in the healthcare sector: My perspective

financialexpress.com/opinion/how-to…

@EKumarSharma @FinancialXpress
A healthcare job creates a nominal value-added of ~Rs. 5.8 lakhs 1 per year, compared with ~4.40 lakhs for an average job in the Indian economy. In addition, it has backward linkages with much higher value-adding jobs in the pharmaceutical & medical equipment mfg. businesses.
A healthcare job requires an investment of ~ Rs. 9.1 lakh, compared to Rs. 10.1 lakh for an average Indian job. In other words, a healthcare job is a low capital intensity and high value-adding job.

We have converted a large part of Urban India into terrible living spaces that don't even provide adequate breathing space- forget privacy.
1. Our policy, combined with the real-estate and construction industry practices has made housing completely out of reach for a vast majority of people in the urban areas,...
2. ...unless a family is willing to commit itself to lifetime of housing-driven indebtedness, but with no guarantee that they would not live a slum-like conditions in future.

#EducationPolicy
Thread
@khilwani_karan @andymukherjee70 @sritara @kikumbhar
Ideally, I would support it with research data. But the issues are well known.
1. Our public and private education system is not effective in building capability among our young...
..and the public and private sector employers don’t want to invest in people (reflected in the proportion of contract workers at various levels)...
2. At the same time, we are running a parallel system of coaching classes and training institutes where the family spending on education and training ends up being way beyond their means, resulting in education-driven indebtedness growing by the day.
