Let's shoot the guns
In a series of tweets, MK Stalin slammed the ruling AIADMK-led E Palaniswami government for using force to evict him and other DMK MLAs from the Secretariat.
Have the good days actually come for the economy after four years of Modi rule? It’s a very subjective question and the answer would depend on who you ask this to.
From an economic perspective, it is easy to discredit the Modi government if you pick certain critical points — Take the kind of jobs generated as against the promise of crores of new jobs or private investments that were supposed to flow in buying into the Modi magic.
Modi came with a business-friendly image but India is yet to become that 9 percent plus growing economy beating its peers, crucial land and labor reforms still remain in the pending list, recovering black money, building up a start-up revolution, Make in India, changing India into a manufacturing hub, weeding out corruption, bringing down the cost of living for the common man...the list of misses is long.
Yet, the man can’t be judged by his misses alone. Modi has left his imprint on India’s reform roadmap using a mix of incrementalism and assertiveness in setting policy targets for bureaucracy and making them meet deadlines no matter what it takes.
