Against a target of 180-lakh tonnes of paddy, Punjab's paddy production is likely to achieve a record 220-lakh tonnes. And yet, Punjab as well as neighbouring Haryana, are encountering procurement hiccups. Why can't procurement operations be streamlined? #paddy #foodsecurity

Epstein Paaji told us he only met Epstein as part of a delegation 3-4 times. Guess the other delegates were hiding under the table in these 2 photos, Paaji.

Wonderful news. The Nicobarese must take charge of their future and halt the destruction. Biodiversity is a sovereign resource of crucial importance to the world’s future. International conventions on the rights of indigenous people shd be invoked here

This is why "Historians" should not be allowed to call themselves as "Economists"
Economics is a science based analytical subject based on Maths. The moment such Charlatan come into Bureaucracy via "Lateral Entry". They ruin the sanctity and meritocracy of Services.
Remind you, Sanjeev Sanyal was one of the first Lateral Entry entrant of Modi Government who brought him in as an "Outside Expert". And then these people will badmouth about UPSC, it's sanctity and why people should not "waste" their lives to pass the toughest examination in the world.
During his time in Deutsche Bank, Sanjeev Sanyal was heavily criticised for wrong policies where after 2008 Financial Crisis. Deutsche Bank was heavily penalized for toxic subprime mortgage securities and faced multi-billion-dollar fines from US and European regulators. Sanyal was kicked out of job for leading Deutsche Bank into a financial catastrophe through Global Operations, a branch exclusively headed by Sanyal. Something, he did similarly with India in between 2016-2022. Post Demonitisation to COVID Mismanagement of Modi Government Economic Policies.
Sanjeev Sanyal, is a running train wreck. A Panauti. Wherever he goes, destruction and fury follows with him like a bad omen. I feel sad for Arvind Subramanian and Krishnamurthy Subramanian. They had to take a fall for Sanjeev Sanyal's apathy.

Covicted, not just accused, BJP to give ticket to contest the election and High court suspend the conviction!
Mockery of the justice
Allahabad High Court suspends conviction of murder convict who wishes to contest election on BJP ticket

Not enough people know this: in practice, the IMF is controlled by the US.
The US is the only country that has de facto veto power at the IMF because the biggest decisions require an 85% supermajority of total voting power. The US' vote share is 16.5%
This was by design, and the supermajority threshold was actually moved in 1978 so that the US vote share would continue to give the country veto power.
We should not see the IMF as an organisation that serves global development.
We should see is as an organisation that serves mainly Western interests — and, above all, US interests.

Nobody recalls Prof Sabyachi Das of Ashoka University who first published his paper on vote chori in 2019 elections. Was forced to resign.
With a super El Nino around the corner policy focus should shift to ensuring food security at any cost. Economic stimulus package should be announced to cover up not only crop losses but also provide for liveihood secuirity.

सिंधिया घराने के 400 कमरों वाले जयविलास पैलेस की जगमग मैंने देखी है। भीतर घुसने के लिए अच्छी-खासी फीस भी ली जाती है।
आश्चर्यजनक है कि 21 बिजली कनेक्शनों मे से कई पर साल का बिल ज़ीरो और बाक़ी पर 1-5 यूनिट का बिल आया है।

Woman lawyer Anindita Das assaulted inside Azara Revenue Circle Office, Guwahati. Pushed against cupboard, verbally abused, phone snatched during land hearing. Incident in CM Himanta's own Jalukbari constituency sparks outrage. Women's safety inside govt offices?

This woman stood on the streets of Delhi for over 5 hours today holding up the national flag in protest. When I asked her if her arms are hurting, she said it’s nothing compared to the hurt her fellow citizens are feeling.
Incredible stuff.

What’s worrying in this video is not that RSS goon Raman is assaulting women. What is worrying is @DelhiPolice is telling him to go & ensure camera is off.
