Im ashamed too about that, it's indian economy that's not transparent to it's public. Mp's don't have a good educational background, that's the main flop behind that.\nMany IAS officers have tried their level best to curb the ill obnoxious activities, but all failed. It's a sort a econamy sill requires 100 more years to be fully developed, But it's all in the hands of educated youth who should realize their country's miserable position in the global level and put their hands together to reform india.Jai Hind !

One of the biggest problems I see with 3rd world gov'ts is corruption and abuse of power.  This is a cultural problem, not a social one, though it's impact is definitely social.  Unless and until this problem is admitted, dealt with, and resolved, no amount of money, aid, education, propaganda, king-making, nation-building, or peace-brokering will help the economy and thus the plight of the average citizen, at least long-term.\n\nAs far as "teaching" them to develop, one method that is reasonable and has been proven effective is to involve the average citizens themselves in the process of education, aid-distribution, and working smarter not harder.  This grassroots approach, seen in Bangladesh and some African locations, not only enlightens the masses and improves their condition, it replaces the traditional, pre-modern, ineffective, abusive, tragic methods and lifestyles with lasting positive change.

No action taken so far. It was only a lip-level talk and no concrete action will be taken. Now Congress coalition government has crossed 50% of the tenure and they will be busy in forming alliance, collecting money and working for the next election. No one in the government has time even to think to bring down the prices, give minimum amenities and good to the common people. \nThe remote possibility of this dream is only if a majority government stays in power at least for 5 full terms. If it is a coalition government, Karunanidihi and Lallu will ask their share in terms of money first and Chidambaram will find means to increase the taxes by another 50% of the total taxes now collect.\n\nIt is better to put the proposal in the bin now-.

Women as Policy Makers: Evidence from a Randomized Policy Experiment in India\nRaghabendra Chattopadhyay and Esther Duflo \n\nEconometrica, 2004, vol. 72, issue 5, pages 1409-1443 \n\nAbstract: This paper uses political reservations for women in India to study the impact of women's leadership on policy decisions. Since the mid-1990's, one third of Village Council head positions in India have been randomly reserved for a woman: In these councils only women could be elected to the position of head. Village Councils are responsible for the provision of many local public goods in rural areas. Using a dataset we collected on 265 Village Councils in West Bengal and Rajasthan, we compare the type of public goods provided in reserved and unreserved Village Councils. We show that the reservation of a council seat affects the types of public goods provided. Specifically, leaders invest more in infrastructure that is directly relevant to the needs of their own genders.

rerservation will slows down countrys growth. there is no meaning for the word social justice. it is an innovation of politicians. how can arjun singh uplift 50 crore people with resrvation of 10000 seats. its a political drama. if reservation continued there will not be a day where all people feel that they are equal. it divides country. it accelerates brain drain. when govt wont recognise their merit how can upper castes people stay in this country.

highle debated and disussed..\n\nthe answer remains that reservation has hardly helped and changed the way things are happening. reason.. simple. the way it is applied indiscriminately at present.\n\nhere lies the solution ; -\n\nreservation as such should not completely be removed. i agree with you. the basis should be monetary as i have stated in one of my earlier answers on the same topic.\n50% is not required considering the fact that so many seats remain vacant. \nit should be ensured that once a person from the backward class gets reservation his following generations should not be allowed to avail this opportunity because that is gross injustice. and once in office he should not be given the privilege of early promotion which is extremely unfair. and also people from the backward section earning decent money should not be given reservation (unlike one of my friends who is an sc and is in iit.. he didn't deserve reservation beacuse.his parents annual income was 7 lakhs.. imagine!!)\n\nthere are olny two sections rich and poor. extend the reservation to the poor.\n\nand also reservation at each and every step will handicap the person mentally and he will never put the best effort into his work beacuse it will be at the back of his mind that he has an advantage over others..

Because merit is not recognised and people get admissions in university courses and jobs on basis of caste reservations. This way those who not deserve get to study in higher educational institutes and bag cushy jobs while the deserving meritorious students are denied all this. The Indian politicians have kept the country weak by following the same 'Divide and Rule' policy initiated by the British rulers. If India is freed of these selfish politicians who divide the society in to various castes to increase their vote banks India will become a great strong country

the main prolem of india is corruption. There is no part in india where there is no corruption.All the money government spents for public welfare measures,almost half of it is used by these corrupted officers.government is not taking any measure to control this problem.\nsecondly,there are only few indians worried about the condition of country.i heard some people saying ,"why should we worry if any one is corrupt or not?we cannot change the india.india will drown in a few  years"if this is mentality of people,then surely india will drown.they go on blamming the goverment but do not do their duties.

Margaret Thatcher once said that " The business of the Government is not business ( but Governance)". She was the chief architect of UK's turn around from a sluggish economy to the powerhouse it becae in ninties.\n\nThe Disinvestment process in India started in late eighties. However, given the general opposition by the Leftist political parties ( funnily all the while China was supporting hire & Fire policy) made the subsequent governments to tread cautiously. One of the Goverments even had a Minister for Disinvestment! Slowly a pattern emerged and the Government of India has chalked out a plan to disinvest , primarily the loss making PSUs( Public Sector Units or the Government owned enterprises).\n\nThe so called "navratna" companies would not be privatised. These companies are enormously profit raking ( primarily because of their bemoth structure with long standing monopolies). Then the industries which are of defence related would not be touched.

The principles of capitalism are the same everywhere. Its the law that interferes. Indian govt and law are only getting towards free trade - they still have lot of communistic policies

right now all the countries care about showing off their powers and not really thinking about what they definitely need to improve on. I'm originally from india and as u have probably heard that india's economy is improving dramatically. Well, if you ask me, it difinitely is improving army bases business but a majority of the poor is still in india.

India is a country of 100 crore population and hence naturally the population of this magnitude requires a governance of far superior one, even hold it together.   Since many languages are spoken, culturally different among states but always have stood as one nation and truly bringing out 'unity in diversity'.   \nThe economy in India has a growth rate of nearing 8% and poised for a big leap from 8 to 10% in about 5 years.\n\nThe literacy rate among the villagers is ever increasing and the Government since the Independence and later as a republic, have formed 5 year plans for planned development.  The first three 5 year plans concentrated on Infrasturctural developments as Dams, hydroelectric projects, steel making plants and other electronic manufacturing all in Government sectors.  These involved huge investments and only that magnitude couldhave been implemented by Government as private cos., could not mobilise such resources.  This is the period, the country saw roads being laid between even smaller villages and electricity taken to villages and also, schools opened in villages.  these paid rich dividends for the 5th five year plans and onwards, as there was a large set of people now educated and coming out of engineering colleges and industrialisation had the real meaning with suburbs emerging for allied manufacture items in small scale and also priviate entreprise started to invest in larger plants and the economic started to shown an uptrend in 1985.  The communication revolution followed in the 1990s opened up new vistas for the villagers and benefits obtained from green revolution of 1970s in their economies found meaning in the form of using their purchasing power.\nThe governments had wisely decided policies in customs of imports and exports to see that the industries grow at the appropriate levels and the improved educational systems produced new set of individuals who could bring out their best in software industries and computerisation saw its due place in all fields in India since 1990's.\nThough Governments of different opinions have occupied the seat of power, the general well being of the people had been kept in mind by the governments as they were voted out of power if not they brought out improvements.  The present government is a coalition of different parties but their performance had been above normal and the expected performance is being met. \nNo Government on earth has performed to the satisfaction of all sections of society 100%, as preferences are not the same for all people.  The governments, so for has disproved the comment of W. Churchill that 'the country has been handed over to the men of straw of whom no trace will remain'.\nEminent economists, scientists, doctors, engineers and other professionals have proved beyond doubt, that a country has come to stay, and performing for the better for society at large.\nVR
