Just like you aren’t in traffic, you are traffic, you aren’t part of the society, you are society. Every idea like “let’s have icecream socials at..” started as one person’s pipe dream which they then acted on and executed. No one is coming

My wife and I are starting to test this theory. We are putting our kid in an expensive school, then starting a business to support our lifestyle. If we fail, our kid’ll have to go to a cheaper school and we’d have lost a few years of school

That’s a crazy proposal given India’s long standing non-alignment policy which is being proved prudent given recent changes to US policies under Trump. Even US allies are reducing their reliance on the US and you’re asking India to reverse

India's timing on "Make in India" couldn't have been more fortuitous. The Modi government started hyping Make in India in 2019, if memory serves. Nothing came off it for a while until things started moving in 2021. And n
