According to World Bank's latest report, India's extreme poverty has fallen from 27.6% to just under 2.6%.
And for Indians living under Rs. 400 a day (lower middle income), it has come down from 57.7% of the population to 16.1%.
Remarkable achievement by India given the rupee depreciated and the inflationary pressure of a fast growing economy.

Can’t read the full article.
But look at the patronising language: “ He is learning..”
Assumes that Modi is untaught, is unaware of basics and all those around are ignorant.
Modi is running a country of 1.4 b people. He has to win the confidence of the public to be able to win elections and govern.
The Economist is only running a journal.
If Economist is in the business of giving lessons to others, why not begin at home?
Why is the UK economy in trouble? The government doesn’t take lessons from the Economist?
He is learning that even rapid economic growth won’t placate voters if it fails to produce jobs economist.com/leaders/2026/1…

So...to demonstrate its extreme fealty toward China, Pakistan for a brief moment denied Taiwanese airlines from flying over its airspace before abruptly reversing its decision. The moves made Islamabad look pathetic and incompetent all at once. Impressive!

What has Modi hate done to these people?
These liberals are now complaining that Modi is building concrete roads and people can no longer walk barefoot on the earth and feel connected to the zameen 😂🤦

I thought Naseeruddin Shah was just an ordinary actor. I used to respect & like him.. I never knew that he was a dangerous urban Dimagi Naxal !

Being the LoP @RahulGandhi, I suggest you refrain from politicising every issue. Also, casually labelling commercial and legal matters as criminal is unacceptable.
You have repeatedly decried the successes of Indian industry & our entrepreneurs. Now, are you trying to incite our business leaders to join you in spreading distrust & toxicity?
For decades, your party had smothered the spirit of the Indian entrepreneurs under the stifling ‘Licence-Quota Raj’ & inflicted poverty on crores of Indians.
On the other hand, our government led by PM @narendramodi values the Indian industry as job creators & drivers of economic growth. Our policies have been tailored to enable enterprise, support industry and encourage investment.
Political parties, leaders, governments and institutions share an equal responsibility to support our industry, strengthen our farmers and secure the future of our youth.
Therefore, it is essential to engage constructively rather than casting baseless aspersions to suit your narrow political motives.
The Constitution of India ensures justice to all its citizens & our Honourable Courts are entrusted with upholding it. History is witness to the shoddy manner in which you, your party and the PMs belonging to your party have demeaned the judiciary.
So Rahul ji, refrain from seeing ghosts everywhere.

Why make such a forced comparison between SAARC and SCO and our membership of both.
Pakistan is responsible for the non- functioning of SAARC. Persists with sponsoring terrorism against India. Will not trade and allow transit facilities. Now it has also closed its airspace to us. Attacks us abusively on UN forums. On Kashmir Day the Pak PM openly encourages revolt in J&K. Asim Munir believes devoutly in the two nation theory.
In SCO member countries are not supposed to raise bilateral differences in proceedings. If India is chairing any SCO forum serious functional questions will arise if it chose not to invite a particular member and other countries followed that practice.
It is difficult to understand why Pakistan’s SAARC credentials are considered clean but India is held responsible for SAARC being blocked.
While the Modi government has refused to take part in meetings of South Asia Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) in Islamabad due to differences with Pakistan since 2016, it has joined SCO meetings there in the past, including SCO-Regional Anti-Terror Structure (RATS). In September, India sent SCO National Coordinator Alok Dimri to Islamabad to attend the first coordination meeting for Pakistan’s SCO Presidency and events leading up to the leader’s Summit in Pakistan, scheduled for August 2027. In November 2024, External Affairs Minister S. Jaishankar had represented India at the SCO Heads of Government (HoG) Meeting, and all eyes will be in who will represent India at the SCO Heads of State Summit next year.

Retired Supreme Court Judge attending a “private function” of an unemployed youth living in a GK Bungalow paying over 1 Million a month.
Same was also attended by senior advocates of Supreme Court & senior AAP leaders including former CM Arvind Kejriwal.
Pls buy this story.
#Imp: As much as the right-wing trolls would love to see a controversy here and mislead people, Justice Kaul is right:
1. This was at a private function.
2. Justice Kaul was a private citizen, having retired two years before that.
3. No question of mentoring—I’ve been in touch with 100s of lawyers, judges, and ex-judges since my reporting years.
4. “Taper it down” is an advice I have gotten from literally EVERYONE who loves and/or supports my work lol. Justice Kaul was kind enough to also speak his mind with me. And that is exactly how it should be!
5. The issue here is not about who was photographed with whom. The issue here is the grave revelations by Justice Kaul that paint a very dark and dangerous state of our judiciary, proving institutional capture. Rest is all a DISTRACTION.

Kaise anpadh log aaj kal gyaanbaazi karne lage hain.
These MLC elections were exclusively for Graduates' and Teachers' constituencies.
No MLA-elected or local-body-elected MLC seats were part of this particular election cycle.
Gyan dene se pahle khud bhi padh liya karo bhai.
Dear illegal PM,
Common Citizens do not vote in MLC Elections,
It has complex preferential voting system.
You can make your Sanghi Zombies fool, not the educated ones who know your #votechori game.

Why obsessively? What is the obsession? Should journalists have obsessions?
Obsession is a fixation, monomania.
NYT has this compulsive policy to report negatively on India . @lpolgreen
This writeup of my recent reporting from India made me think: I'd love to read a piece by an Indian journalist who lived in the US from 2009-2013, has since followed its politics and culture obsessively, and returned after nearly a decade's absence! indiatoday.in/india/story/ly…

One day, a journalist from Doordarshan will write: "I spent a week in DC, watching an extraordinary protest movement. Here's what I saw, and what I think it means for US, and the world."
I spent a week in Delhi, watching an extraordinary protest movement unfold. Here's what I saw, and what I think it means for India, and the world. nytimes.com/2026/10/26/opini…
The brown sepoys of the yellow emperor have been activated to try tell you and the world that Make in India is of no use, and even if we do, it is bad.
My only question is:
If Make in India and Made in India are so useless why waste time and effort trying to analyze it? This weak commie logic never made sense to me.
It's like all the time they claim "Oh India doesn't matter", "it is of no consequence", "nobody cares", "everything India does is a failure", but spend billions to try analyze and attack India's work as useless.
Just let India be. As a weak, worst, worthless country. Why waste your time and energy talking about it and how it is failing? Go write something better like how your masters are so amazing.

Some jokes write themselves. Please let’s not kid ourselves.
The freedom of speech and expression is being taken away from lakhs of citizens across the country.
This BJP government does not care about Article 14, Article 19 and Article 21 of our great Constitution. This government wants to deprive all citizens, including elected representatives, of their right to express themselves freely.
We extend our support to students, youth, social media users, vloggers, YouTubers, and independent digital platforms. We demand that they must be allowed to express themselves freely. Full strength to them as we, all together, fight this dangerous trend of censorship.
Instead of indulging in atrocities against citizens on social media, this government should focus on taking care of the North East along with ensuring the safety and security of all people across the country.
