India - Modi's Visionary Leadership and Government - Vibrant Democracy



HAPPY NEW YEAR INDIA AND INDIANS. 

YOU MANAGED NOTE BADLI. A STUPENDOUS EFFORT FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE WORLD. GOOD THINGS ARE STRONG POSSIBILITY NOW.


Development Inclusion - The Objective of Narendra Modi


Prime Minister Narendra Modi plans and implements projects across length and breadth of the country - Development Inclusion his theme.

Prime Minister Narendra Modi has taken up mega projects. He is announcing and managing one mega project after another. Jana Dhan is a successful mega project. His dream of a toilet in every house and open defecation free villages is also a mega project. Shri Nitin Gadkari is working very actively on increasing the road network and also port network all over India. The projects of Narendra Modi are not concentrated in one location. They are projects touching length and breadth of the country and large number of people.


Demonetization of Rs. 500 and 1000 Notes


25 December

No queues in ATMs today also. But Rs. 500 notes were not available in ICICI Bank ATM also today. Yesterday they were available.

24 December 2016

I went around Hiranandani Estate roads, Vasant Leela and Vijaya Nagari Road, and Ghodbunder Road. Some ATMs are not working and some are working. But there are absolutely no queues at any of the ATMs. In ATMs of ICICI and HDFC Bank Rs. 500 notes are available. That shows, the demand for currency has been met and there is no anxiety in people now.

23 December 2016

Rs. 500 New Notes available in an ATM. If they come freely everyday from now, cash problems will ease out.

The current printing capacity in the country  can be managed to provide the daily required cash flow now.

Around 5000 crores can be printed per day, and this amount may be sufficient to take care of all medium value payments by people. Now many merchants are offering the facility of POS terminal and encouraging people to pay by swiping the card. So many high value payments that involve payment in thousands can be done through credit/debit cards. Hence cash requirement per month for an average family has come down.  Hotels, Medical shops. Fancy shops and Grocery shops have started using POS terminals.

16 December 2016


The Government and RBI have acquired control over the supply to new notes. The are announcing that Rs. 7.5 lakh crores new currency will be put back into banking system by December end. More importantly currency notes of Rs. 500 denomination will be made available in big numbers so that the cash cruch felt by the people due to the illiquidity of Rs. 2000 note will be addressed. Once the requirements of lower and middle classes is taken care of the money of bulk depositors can be exchanged.

2 lakh ATMs out of the 2.2 lakh ATMs have been recalibrated and measures are being taken to see that all ATMs have cash for withdrawal.


The First One Month

Indian Government led by the visionary leader, Shri Narendra Modi, has decided to undertake a massive currency exchange operation to attack black money, counterfeit currency being put into circulation by terrorist outfits with an announcement on 8 November. The strategy was appreciated by large majority of the country. But there were problems in the economy and also problems affecting people due to the lack of sufficient new currency in the system. But the Government stuck to its vision and decision and doing its best to request cooperation from the people for 50 days and also trying to find solutions to the problems as they are cropping in different parts of the country. The people of India are putting the faith in the vision of the government by remaining peaceful to a very large extent and bearing the inconveniences and also trying various other alteratives like cheque payments and card payments.

At the same time, the opposition parties are highlighting the problems being faced by people in the parliament as well as outside it. The ministers as well as party MPs, MLAs and other party workers of the ruling party are engaging in conversations to impress upon the protestors to give time to the government in completing this gigantic change effort which will reduce corruption and tax evasion in the country in the future. This is how vibrant democracy should work. A health debate on what people want at this point in time and the benefits and disadvantages of it. When a decision is taken, the inconveniences have to highlighted so that remedial actions when possible can be taken at the earliest while implementing the main decision.

There is a concern on slowdown of the economy. Hope Government announces the measures that it is taking to limit the possible negative effect of the demonetisation on the economy. Already excise duty on POS terminals is reduced. A good move to encourage more merchants to offer card payment facility.

Pratah Smaranam By Adi Shankaracharya



YouTube Video

_______________________


_______________________

Vidyavahini upload


Meaning

In the morning, I remember and think of  the Soul, the Self , which is existence-consciousness-bliss, which is the goal to be attained by Paramahamsa sannyasis. The Soul always witnesses the states of waking, dream and deep sleep. The persons who are able to perceive the Soul within them are in the fourth state beyond waking, dream and deep sleep.  I am that Brahman which is indivisible and not the aggregate of the five elements, ether, air, fire, water and earth.

I worship in the morning the Supreme  Being who is described in the Vedas as unborn, changeless, and the highest, who is inaccessible to the mind and whom words cannot directly describe, but by whose blessing the faculty of speech functions, and who is described in the Upanishads by the words 'not this, not this'.

I salute (namaskar)  in the morning to the infinite, eternal Being who is known as the Supreme Being, who is beyond the darkness of ignorance, who shines like the sun, who is everything and on whom this entire universe appears in a misconception, just as a rope is misconceived as a snake.

One who reads every morning these three verses will attain the ultimate goal of mankind (moksha).

Ancient India's Public Administration - Chapter - Society and Its Structure




A review of the  varna and caste systems is important to the student of ancient Indian polity. The varna and caste affected the status of the citizens and their duties as members of the body politic. From the commencement of the Brahmanic Period until recently, the position of a man in relation to society, and his duties, both public and private, depended largely upon the his caste,  than upon his individual capacity and character.

The duties of the different castes are thus defined by Manu :

Duties of the Brahmanas, teaching, studying, offering sacrifices, officiating at sacrifices, charity and acceptance of gifts ;

of the Kshatriyas, protection of the people, charity, performing sacrifices, study,

of the Vaisyas, cattle-rearing, agriculture, charity, performance of sacrifices, study, trade and
money-lending ;

of the Sudras,various services under the guidance of the three orders. To this list Chanakya adds agriculture, arts, and crafts as the occupations of the Sudras ;  and Vishnu mentions all industrial arts (sarva-silpani) as being within their province.

In the court of the king, brahmanas were the councillors of the king, and the chief officers of state, both executive and judicial. " To them," says Megasthenes, " belong the highest posts of government, the tribunals of justice, and the general administration of public affairs."

The Brahmanas and the Kshatriyas were the two most important classes in the early Indian society. They undertook the task of regulating vaishyas and sudras who are engaged in varta. Varta is the activity for living or subsistence.

Ancient India's Public Administration -Chapter - Introduction



In  Ancient India, the knowledge was divided into four heads for study, namely, Philosophy, the Vedas, Economics, and Politics.

Sources to Understand the Public Administration System of Ancient India

The sources of information regarding the systems of administration which prevailed in India in the
ancient times and the political ideas and ideals which moulded and shaped those systems, are: the Vedas, the Epics, the Smritis, the Puranas, the religious books of the Buddhists and the Jainas, dramatic literature, accounts of foreign travellers, epigraphic records, and lastly, a few treatises which deal specially with Politics. Arthashastra by Kautilya is an important treatise dealing with politics and economics of state/kingdom.

The Rajatarangini of Kalhana, about the Kings of Kashmir, is conforms more history. Much light is
also thrown on the political condition of India by the writings of poets like Bhasa and Kalidasa. The Mudra-Rakshasa of Visakhadatta, Mrichchakatika of Sudraka, the Harshacharita of Bana and the Dasakumara-charita of Dandin are also useful to learn about the government affairs of the day.
The story books, such as the Panchatantra, the Brihat-Katha, and the Katha-sarit-sagara provide information on the political ideas of the Hindus of that time. In Tamil literature the most well-known
works on the subject are the Mani-Mekalai and the Kural.



The Greek traveller,  Megasthenes, who was attached for several years as Ambassador to the
Court of Chandragupta Maurya, was a very careful observer of facts and events which came under his direct notice. His writings arer one of the most important sources of information regarding the condition of the country in the fourth century before Christ. Many Chinese pilgrims visited India during the period between the fourth and eighth centuries A.D., and the accounts left by them, especially those left by Fa Hian, Hiuen Tsiang,  and I-Tsing, are of very great use to people interested in the affairs of ancient India.

The epigraphic records are invaluable for the elucidation of the facts of the history of India. Be-
sides, they give us many useful hints about the political affairs of the periods to which they relate.
 Asoka's inscriptions and the inscriptions of the Guptas are the most important. Some of the Ceylon inscriptions are of special interest in this regard. Useful information is available in many of the copperplate records of grants made by kings and others.

Chapter 1 | The Modi Phenomenon: Rebooting Indian Foreign Policy | Cleo Paskal

Cleo Paskal is  Associate Fellow at Chatham House, the Royal Institute of International Affairs London, UK.  She says “Modi’s foreign policy during his first two years in power has been like getting a master class in geopolitics.” She points out that in Pacific region only two of the 14 Pacific Island Countries (PICs) have an Indian high commission whereas China has an embassy in every PIC that it has relations with. It shows that density of relationships in the region is low. Unless relationships are established and maintained with key people on the ground,  information flows may be less than complete.”

Chapter 4 | Steady Progress on India–US Security Ties under Modi Government | Lisa Curtis

Lisa Curtis is Senior Research Fellow at the Heritage Foundation. She observes that  Modi has pursued a bolder and more innovative foreign policy than his predecessor, Manmohan Singh. She appreciates the fact that this Indian government has established  bonhomie between US and India.



Chapter 5 | India's Land Boundary Agreement with Bangladesh: Its Importance and Implications | Tariq A Karim

Former ambassador of Bangladesh to India, Tariq A Karim in his essay, explains the significance of providing access to enclaves in normalising  bilateral ties between India and Bangladesh.

Chapter 2 | Harnessing Multilateral Orders to India's Interests and Principles | Ramesh Thakur


Ramesh Thakur is  professor in the Crawford School of Public Policy, Australian National University.
according to him,  India’s long pursuit for the elusive permanent seat at the UN Security Council sis an exercise in futility. Instead of putting more effort to get benefit of funds from the International Monetary Fund and World Bank,  Thakur advises India to  divert  energies to get more financial resources out of G-20 and BRICS.

Chapter 3 | Diaspora Factor in Modi's Diplomacy | Sreeram Chaulia

Sreeram Chaulia is Professor and Executive Director of the Centre for Global Governance and Policy at the OP Jindal Global University. He emphasizes the importance of the diaspora in forging closer Indo-Western ties. He  explains the benefits of Modi's  address to  the big Indian-American crowd at Madison Square.  American Congressmen realised that the mood of Indians in USA is highly positive to Modi. This made them to develop a positive turnaround from the hostility displayed by them earlier.  Modi not only addressed and impressed the educated and affluent Indian in USA and UK, but also understood and addressed the concerns of poorer Indians in Dubai who are looking forward to a better future in Gulf or India under the leadership of the new Prime Minister.

Modi is orienting  the Indian Foreign Service (IFS) towards India’s business interests. The  detractors may question the utility of many foreign tours of Modi. But  takes an extra push by the Prime Minister for change to occur in the IFS officers focus and  purpose.

19. The preparation of the (blades used as) 'purifiers,' the measure of their length, the preparation of the Prokshanî water, and the sprinkling of the vessels are the same here as at the sacrifices of the new and full moon, (but are performed) in silence.

20.  To the west of the fire he pours water into a vessel over which he has laid (two grass blades called) purifiers, purifies (the water) three times with two northward-pointed purifiers, holds it on a level with his nose and mouth, places it to the north of the fire on Darbha grass, and covers it with Darbha grass.

8. The sprinkling (of water) round (the fire is repeated) as above; the Mantras are altered so as to say, 'Thou hast given thy consent,' 'Thou hast given thy impulse.'

9. The designation 'Pâkayagña' is used of ceremonies connected with worldly life.

10. There the ritual based on the Brâhmana (holds good),

11. (To which the words allude), 'He sacrifices twice; he wipes off (his hand) twice; he partakes twice (of the sacrificial food); having gone away he sips (out of the Sruk) and licks off (the Sruk).'

12. All seasons are fit for marriage with the exception of the two months of the sisira season, and of the last summer month.

1. 1 Under the Maghâs (Nakshatra) cows are provided;

2. Under the Phalgunî (Nakshatra) marriage is celebrated.

3. 3 A daughter whom he wishes to be dear (to her husband), a father should give in marriage under the Nishtyâ (Nakshatra); thus she becomes dear (to her husband); she does not return (to her father's) house: this is an observance based on a Brâhmana.

5. 5 At the wedding one cow;

6. In the house one cow:

7. With the (first cow) he should prepare an Argha reception for the bridegroom as for a guest,

8. With the other (the bridegroom [?] should do so) for a person whom he reveres.

9. These are the occasions for killing a cow: (the arrival of) a guest, (the Ashtakâ sacrifice offered to) the Fathers, and marriage.

10. Let (the wooer) avoid in his wooing a girl that sleeps, or cries, or has left home.

11. 11 And let him avoid one who has been given (to another), and who is guarded (by her relations), and one who looks wicked (?), or who is a most excellent one (?), or (who is like the fabulous deer) sarabha (?), a hunch-back, a girl of monstrous appearance, a bald-headed girl, a girl whose skin is like a frog's (?), a girl who has gone over to another family (?), a girl given to sensual pleasures (?), or a herdess, or one who has too many friends, or who has a fine younger sister, or one whose age is too near to that of the bridegroom (?).

16. If she touches one of the former (objects, this portends) prosperity as characterized (by the nature of what she has touched).

17. The last is regarded as objectionable.

18. Let him marry a girl of good family and character, with auspicious characteristics, and of good health.

19. Good family, a good character, auspicious characteristics, learning, and good health: these are the accomplishments of a bridegroom.

Achievements of 'Make in India' in the First Two Years  (25 September 2014 - 24 September 2016)


October 2016

A new Nasccom-Zinnov report, launched at the ongoing Nasscom Product Conclave 2016 in Bengaluru, reveals that India remains the third most largest startup base after the US and the UK.

The report is titled ‘Indian Start-up Ecosystem Maturing – 2016.’  According to the report, the startup companies number is expected to grow 2.2X times to reach more than 10,500 startups by the year 2020.

The cities like Bengaluru, NCR, and Mumbai continue to lead as the major startup hub for the nation. In the tech sector, new opportunities are availabe in  health-tech, fin-tech, and edu-tech for vertical growth. The number of tech startups in India is expected to grow by 10-12 percent to over 4,750 by the end of 2016. The number of startups emerged in 2016 is 1400.  10,500 start-ups by 2020 will employ over 210,000 people.

Incubators and accelerators are believed to be playing a substantial role in strengthening the startup community. The support from Government and Corporates has led to 40 percent increase in the number of active incubators and accelerators in 2016. Government’s ‘Start-up India Stand-up India’ initiative this year paved way to 30 new incubators. Tier-II/III cities are also favoured for starting incubators and now have 66 percent of the new incubators.

Over 350 startups were founded by young students. The median age of startup founders has reduced marginally from 32 years in 2015 to 31 years in 2016.

Make in India - Renewable Energy and Related Equipment - $20 Trillion Economy Opportunity







The government is playing an active role in promoting the adoption of renewable energy resources by offering various incentives, such as generation- based incentives (GBIs), capital and interest subsidies, viability gap funding, concessional finance, fiscal incentives etc.

The National Solar Mission aims to promote the development and use of solar energy for power generation and other uses, with the ultimate objective of making solar energy compete with fossil-based energy options.

The objective of the National Solar Mission is to reduce the cost of solar power generation in the country through long-term policy, large scale deployment goals, aggressive R&D and the domestic production of critical raw materials, components and products.

Renewable energy is becoming increasingly cost-competitive compared to fossil fuel-based generation. Setting up of renewable power plants is becoming economically feasible and justifiable for private businesses without any social subsidies.

       Wind energy equipment prices have fallen dramatically due to technological innovation, increasing manufacturing scale and experience curve gains.

        Prices for solar modules have declined by almost 80% since 2008 and wind turbine prices have declined by more than 25% during the same period.

The government has created a liberal environment for foreign investment in renewable energy projects. The establishment of a dedicated financial institution – the Indian Renewable Energy Development Agency, makes for renewed impetus on the promotion, development and extension of financial assistance for renewable energy and energy efficiency/conservation projects.

Government of is calling for setting up 100 GW of solar power and 100 GW of wind power by 2022.


Come people with entrepreneurial interest - understand the opportunity and initiate steps to realize your dream.


First Seminar on Renewable Opportunity in India was organized on 15th February 2015.

Coal, Power & Renewable Sectors to Provide an Oppourtunity of One Trillion Dollar Investment by 2030: Shri Piyush Goyal 


While speaking at Seminar on Power & Coal during Make in India Week in Mumbai today, Shri Piyush Goyal said, “The efforts of Government have ushered the power sector in a new level of growth altogether which provides for the sector a possible investment opportunity, between 2015 & 2020, a five year period, of about $ 250 billion.

When I extrapolate that to a 15 year programme until 2030 the coal, power and renewable sector alone provides $1 trillion opportunity.
Infact the ADB has calculated a $ 2.3 trillion opportunity by 2035”.

He further added, “when I talk about $1 trillion investment by 2030, it’s a well defined area wise plan- what will go into transmission, what will opening of new mines, how will we bring technology into the coal sector, what will be our push towards energy efficiency, how are we going to bring in new coal generating plants which will be environmentally superior plants, what will we going to do about our gas based plants, how are we going to ensure the distribution sector works as a vibrant profitable business for the state discoms- all of these have been drawn out in great details. It provides great opportunity for the investors both in India and International.”


Talking about rural electrification, Shri Piyush Goyal said, “I am delighted that Prime Minister has taken up the task of rural electrification on mission mode and assured that in 1000 days (when he announced on 15th August 2015), there will be no village in this country without electricity access and I am even delighted to inform all of you that the ministry has taken the challenge to the next level and committed to the Indian that each of this 18,452 villages will be electrified in 730 days not the thousand days. Nearly one- third of the work is already done and as we speak about 5279 villages have already being electrified in last 10 months. By 31 March 2016, we expect over 6500 villages to be electrified and by 31st March 2017, our efforts will be to almost to electrify 80 to 90% unelectrified of villages across the country. By 2019, the effort is to ensure that every home gets electricity connection, most of them through the grid some of them through distributed energy and micro grids.”

Shri Piyush Goyal said that our global share of LED consumption has gone up from 0.1% to 12% in just 2 years on the global scale and the LED programme will save 100 bn units of electricity and $6.5 bn every year for consumers.

Shri Goyal stated that he is happy by the fact that India has surplus power and surplus coal because that is where we can ensure the success of our programmes to bring power to every individual, every business, ensure adequate power for our farmers and that’s the enabler which will help the Make in India programme to scale new heights of success and invite people from all across the world to come and invest in India, to come and enjoy the huge market demand that a billion plus aspirational Indians offer to the world.
