1/ I had no intention to do this #BariOluModi thread till someone sent a DM requesting me to do a fact check on this
thetruepicture.in/karnataka-deve…
2/ Though the name of the website is “The True Picture” just going through their twitter TL proves it is a RW propaganda machinery
3/ My objections to their above mentioned comparisons r selective use of data, skewed interpretations and one sided projections to suit BJP
4/ Karnataka is a big state in every national comparison. Comparing It’s growth rate with states like Arunachal, Jharkhand etc is illogical
5/ and purely a politically motivated exercise to demean the state. And if one notices, the states selected r not same for every comparison
6/ Let us do a detailed comparison of the state with same subjects. But unlike “The False Picture”
7/ And the authors of that article didn’t even know the difference between growth and development. Any how, let us start
8/ As 2015-16 data of all the states are not available for few comparisons, we r considering 3 three year period ending 2014-15.
9/ What the authors of the article did was, they picked up few states’ available data to deliberately mislead the the target audience
10/ NSDP Growth Rate is the first comparison they hv done. In bigger states Karnataka has the best Average
indiabudget.nic.in/Web%20Excel%20…
11/ Next is Per Capita NSDP Growth. We r going by latest available government document as reference point
indiabudget.nic.in/Web%20Excel%20…
12/ In both the above cases, Karnataka has the best 3 year average which is much above BJP’s “Most Developed State”
13/ Per Capita NSDP is the next. Now u know why the authors conveniently avoided taking Gujarat’s figures
indiabudget.nic.in/Web%20Excel%20…
14/ If we take all the states and UTs which the article did not mention, Gujarat will end up in the lower 10 of the list
15/ Their next comparison is FDI inflows to states. Here is the actual numbers of top 10 states from April 1, 2000 to March 31, 2017
16/ After doing Vibrant Gujarat drama for years, Gujarat could attract only 5% of the total FDI which came in to India. Karnataka has 7%
17/ Authors gave u just one year’s number. Here is the year wise details from 2008-09 to 2011-12
dipp.nic.in/sites/default/…
18/ The next point in the article is Karnataka’s IT Exports. The problem pointed out is Karnataka has given more prominence to IT industry
19/ Answer is, due to the locational advantage, Gujarat always had a thriving trading and manufacturing community. That’s not a BJP creation
20/ Next in line is the yield of few crops. Comparison is with Gujarat. This is the best example of how these idiots are befooling people.
21/ They compare the per hectare yield of wheat, bajra, oilseeds and groundnut. There is a problem here.
22/Look at the screenshot. None of the crops mentioned by these guys are the major crops in Karnataka.Maximum area is under rice cultivation
23/ Crop yield is not a constant one. Climate plays a major role. Karnataka had gone through 3 years of severe draught
24/ So, let us check the yield of rice per hectare in Karnataka and Gujarat. Let us treat these guys with their own medicine
25/ Average rice yield in 14dt of Karnataka is 3019kg/Hectare and it is 1839kg in Gujarat.

26/ Instead of groundnut, take the yield of Coconut and see the difference in yield.

crops and crop patterns r different for both states.
27/ In the same way, we can counter other crops too. The crux of the matter is, none of the mentioned crops are major crops in Karnataka
28/ And such a comparison can be done only by idiots and only fools will fall for such propaganda
drdpat.bih.nic.in/Productivity%2…
29/ Now the guys r coming in to Social Sector Indicators and starting with Atrocities against SCs and STs.
30/ The same guys who kept Gujarat away in initial comparisons taking Gujarat as their benchmark here
31/ Crime against SC / STs. Let us take the same set of states and few other BJP ruled states and do a comparison.
ncrb.nic.in/StatPublicatio…
32/ The next in line is the better conviction rate of culprits who do such atrocities in “Developed Model State”. What is the truth?
33/Conviction rate for atrocities against SC & STs in Gujarat in 2015 was 3.4% n 1.8%.National Avrg was 28.8% & 37.9
boomlive.in/gujarat-sees-m…
34/ Communal Violence in Gujarat Vs Karnataka is their next comparison point. A detailed analysis is here
mattersindia.com/2017/01/commun…
35/ The analysis shows, In almost all the cases of communal riots in India, either RSS or its affiliates include BJP were included
36/ Almost all of them were against one particular minority community and when the elections approach, the number of incidents goes up
37/ To show the number of farmer suicides, these guys are showing a weird comparison. Comparing Karnataka with Gujarat!
38/ Here is the Actual Comparison. BJP ruled states tops the chart.
ncrb.nic.in/StatPublicatio…
39/ As a pattern, the idiots - authors of the article - conveniently removed Gujarat when they compared HDI parameters
40/ They compared Women empowerment, IMR, Immunisation, MMR and life expectancy at birth.
41/ in all the above mentioned parameters, longest BJP ruled states - MP and Gujarat are the worst performing big states.
42/ An analysis of data fm NFHS 4 shows, AP n MP r the worst performers in this group of states in women empowerment
docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d…
43/ Rajasthan is not doing great either. Gujarat is far behind WB. Kerala tops the chart
44/ Infant Mortality Rate. See the difference between what those bhakts wrote and what the fact is
rchiips.org/nfhs/factsheet…
45/ Immunisation: 2 longest BJP ruled states developed so much that they struggle to get 50% children Immunised!
rchiips.org/nfhs/factsheet…
46/ Maternal Mortality Ratio - Gujarat had the lowest percentage of decrease in 9 years - just 30%
niti.gov.in/content/matern…
47/ Life Expectancy at Birth. The graphic chart shows why Gujarat was not there in authors’ list 😁
niti.gov.in/writereaddata/…
48/ This is the best example to see how low Sanghis can stoop to show others in bad light while they r in neck deep dirt.
