The issue is that MoD does procurement in piecemals. 59 tanks is such a small order that it is simply not worth setting up tank engine mfg. I have 0 idea why no one can tell geniuses at MoD that tank orders have to be in range of 500-3,000, aircraft orders in range of 200-500.
The engine (for Zorawar) was ready for delivery. After that, it did not leave Germany for 13 months. If a guy doesn't give me an engine, am I not going to produce a tank? So we bought another engine, says JD Patil on Sandeep Unnithan Show: https://t.co/54nAYY8vx7

Indians in general - people and state media & broadcasting ministry, are paying ZERO attention to the psyche and vicious hate being perpetuated across North-East social channels. This refers to both intra-regional hate & hate towards outsiders. Zero effort on the digital front.
As I said in March, and been warning since last December, India is being blamed for issues in Nepal and fires are being fanned in Nepali hearts against India. Slowly and surely, using social media, inimical forces are poisioning Nepali minds against Indians right now as we read

A way to test if China is serious about good relations despite the border issues is to invite COMAC for a joint production deal for civilian aircraft in exchange for access to the Indian market. Similar deals can be done for HSR as well.

Yup, we should export our water and import pulses and edible oils. If our babus have 180 IQ, some of our ministers have 220 IQ.

I agree with this, but for a slightly different reason, the west being hostile to us would shake our Anglophile elite to realise they have no place else to go. These people need a fire under their ass to become serious for nation building.
anything that creates bad blood between India and usa , betweens indians and amreekans etc is LT good for india given how much Indians are mentally colonized

We created a whole surveillance state to stop the leakages in these useless schemes like mnrega instead of just focusing on public health, early education and basic literacy like most sane countries.
These bullshit studies keep showing some specific benefits without ever considering the trade offs. These studies then provide rationalisation to even sane politicians who know better, but will still do it anyway since they think the harms are minimal.

This is fundamental flaw in India-US relations regarding Iran/Venezuela/Russia. Instead of playing carrot and sticks together(them being the sticks and us being the carrots), US want to use us as the stick too while China undermines them in negotiations with all three. (1/2)
Senator: How will you explain to India that they have been hit with tariffs and not China? Sergio Gor: Look, we hold our friends to different standards. We expect more from India than we do from other nations

We need to amend the land acquisition act to make it acquisition faster for public transport. Gulag for anyone opposing it and still pretending to want to fix climate change.
Kerala's Silverline semi-high speed railway project (along a similar-ish route) has been stalled for several years now because of protests. Meanwhile highway construction goes on, unaffected. We need much, much more rail.

Yeah, Europe never crosses above 50% post Rome. China is regularly above 50% and India has irregularities in being above 50%. Amazing how STEMcelling like this has produced a better defence for India as a nation state than any of these "Bharat Civilizational State" kangs.

@real_mahalingam @gummibear737 Yet, that did not mean he opposed a Muslim state or their supermacy just that he opposed a specific type of theocracy. This is what Pakistanis and liberals there mean when they say they don't want Islamists in power or that they constitute only 20 to 30 percent of vote. (2/n)

@real_mahalingam @gummibear737 Yes. Ex - Pakistan was created and ruled by people who were, and still largely are, "secular" presenting in their lifestyle and habbits. Ayub Khan even wanted to remove the word "Islamic" from the country's official name though he folder eventually after opposition. (1/n)

Large chuck of urban spending is just mnrega for contractors.
This is what I was talking about yesterday. Just to deepen some contractors pockets, make & break policy is followed by Mumbai authorities endlessly. A flyover which was made only in 2018 (god knows after how many years of construction and resulting jams) will be broken now to
