Indian Economy

There is an interesting book on this I would like to recommend to everyone. It's called "Aaj bhi khare hain Talab". It is about the historical & social importancr of lakes and ponds used to have in water conservation in India.

nrc me purana hindu ko hi illegal immigrant/refugee dikha diya
aur uska magnum opus, corridor for photo ops, forgetting everything that what all can happen to the country as result of the wrath of devi devatas

NRC was conducted by a Supreme Court appointed committee. Government had been flagging the exercise since the beginning. The chief conspirators behind the NRC hijack were Ranjan Gogoi and Prateek Hajela.

Dhubri and other Muslim dominated districts of Assam had skewed demography long before Himanta even came into the picture. Dhubri was 73% Muslim as per 2011 census. His warnings about demography are to wake up secular Assamese and non-Assamese Hindus. It wouldn't have come to this if past Assamese leaders had done the same. Instead, they always gaslit Assamese Hindus against Bengali Hindus.

Regarding Kamakhya, Nilachal hill is heavily encroached upon. The corridor is meant to mitigate that and create a better managed public space. The temple itself will not be touched. Why'd that incur 'wrath'? Where's it written that our pilgrim spots shouldn't keep with the times? The ones instigating this opposition to the project are (predictably) leftists. The same tactic was was employed when the Kashi Vishwanath corridor was in the works. The footfall of pilgrims in Kashi has grown manifold since. The modus operandi of this dissent is strikingly similar too, ie- rope in a dissenting panda or pujari or two (out of hundreds) and amplify that through left-leaning media. Kamakhya corridor will also pushed through like KV corridor was, regardless of leftist crocodile tears, once the hydrological study is done to satisfy the court.

well the hydrological study wasnt even considered and construction began, then pandas and sadhaks protested

the main issue is if in digging and construction, if the sacred stream which travels in nilachal and goes to the garbhagriha in the yoni, if it gets obstructed then definitely you will see wrath, kamakhya is both kali as well as tripur sundari, she is adi parashkti, her wrath would be next level

as for left wing supporting this, they dgaf, its mostly the dharmic people and rw people who know the sensitiveness of the situation are protesting, people those who are spreading dharma and sadhana are protesting
siddha purush are protesting, those who have got darshana of the devi, they themselves are protesting, in kerala devaprashnams, devi herself is unhappy with this and directed sadhaks to go fight for her, now this might sound odd but yes, it seems she is testing her sadhakas to the core, cause most of the sadhakas in pil left after govt fear (police threatened many), i talked to a great pujari from a murugan temple and he too said that this thing is not good, murugan swami isnt happy, he is invoked in this case
the govt and officials just want photo ops for election. if anything goes wrong they wouldnt be held responsible

now the footfall and tourism case, dharmic places shouldnt be made a tourist destination and pls dont bring dhandho mindset and "boosting economy" in these places, ok do it in places where it is truly needed, but not everywhere,

Environmental and geotechnical surveys were conducted before project sanction as per norms. The SC then in all its wisdom decided a fresh hydrological study is required before construction and stayed it. But that's par for the course for the courts. Almost every project in this country is delayed on some pretext or the other, their cost escalated because virtue signalling milords have this uncontrollable itch to butt into everything. The milords will now green light construction after this technicality is fulfilled, and cost of the project is up by 50%.

The pond within the temple premises is already heavily polluted, the water in it of semi-solid consistency due to algae infestation. Never heard activists express worry about that.

It's clear that the one's who are protesting have no idea what Nilachal hill looks like. As I already mentioned, it's been encroached and built upon unchecked for decades. Leftist media has taken special interest in it and they have gaslighted a small section of pujaris and pandas. The vast majority of locals, pujaris and pandas have shown no interest in partaking in the opposition.

The increased footfall in Kashi Vishwanath consists of pilgrims only. Now, if you choose to label that as simple "tourism" that's your prerogative. KV temple was surrounded with encroachments and filth. An ever-present rush of devotees within cramped gullies made the temple inaccessible to a vast number of devotees. The aged, sick and very young were effectively excluded. To top it all, over 50 encroached upon ancient temples emerged from within decrepit encroachments that were demolished for the project. Those temples have been since taken into the project's ambit and restored.

As is happening in Kamakhya, in Kashi also the temple only became sacrosanct when redevelopment was announced, not when the encroachments were happening unabated, turning the area around it to a shanty town.

sc didnt say anything in the case, i am following it, pil file karne walon ko ie rajarshi nandy ji was told to go to guwahati high court where hearing happened and govt was scolded how they didnt do any hydrological survey for such a huge project, then assam govt roped in iitg for survey

the pandas arent protesting because they are scared, its completely okay, fear of govt action is there in common man if they protest. left media isnt covering this, they dont give a f on this issue. its mostly rw supporters and hardcore sadhakas of maa who are protesting. nilachal is encroached that is correct, so why dont you do an anti encroachment drive ie bulldozer run. why unnecessary everywhere dhandhogiri and corridor.
some places are too sacred and jagrit that common man doesnt deserve to go there, it should be left as it is, just leave it.

once in 1900s, for road construction on nilachal, a kartikeya shrine, small one was razed and never rebuilt, that place suffered from plague till a huge skanda homa was performed.

siddha purush and expert and advanced sadhakas are against this, there must be something big, stop being blind in support of bjp, i too love bjp and modiji, yogiji, etc but we need to say sometimes on issues for our own good. we never said anything thats why bjp was overconfident that our voters will vote and we will go 40 paar. constructive criticism is necessary.

Ah, yes, Rajarshi Nandy the enlightened guru who shot into fame after his podcast with crypto Ranveer. He an expert at geology as well now?

Did the SC not say anything in the case or did it 'scold' the govt? Choose one.

the pandas arent protesting because they are scared, its completely okay, fear of govt action is there in common man if they protest.

Private Firm Conducting Survey for Kamakhya Corridor: Assam Govt to HC | Guwahati News - Times of India

Assam government informs Gauhati High Court about private firm conducting hydrogeological and geophysical investigation for Kamakhya corridor project. Larsen & Toubro (L&T) Limited ropes in expert agency for the survey in Nilachal Hills.

PM Modi lauds Assam’s Kamakhya corridor initiative

Prime Minister Narendra Modi appreciated Assam’s “landmark” Maa Kamakhya initiative and hoped it would be like the Kashi Vishwanath Dham in Varanasi and Shree Mahakal Mahalok in Ujjain.

HC directs Assam govt to file response on Kamakhya access corridor

Chief Justice Vijay Bishnoi and Justice Suman Shyam granted two weeks' time to the state government to file the response.

nilachal is encroached that is correct, so why dont you do an anti encroachment drive ie bulldozer run. why unnecessary everywhere dhandhogiri and corridor.

Most of the corridor is earmarked for access road construction, ie: buildings will be replaced with paths, ramps and two courtyards. The remaining will have a pilgrim facilitation centre and facilities for puja and pandas and pujari quarters. What's so 'dhandogiri' in that?

some places are too sacred and jagrit that common man doesnt deserve to go there, it should be left as it is, just leave it.

Just to be sure, Kamakhya is already visited by lakhs of devotees every year. Always choc-a-bloc with people. That's not the issue here. The corridor will merely improve access for the old and the infirm, who find it difficult to get there. Who are we to decide that that isn't permissible?

The other problem Nilachal faces is massive traffic congestion and ever increasing parking problems. Not the most divine setting for sure.

once in 1900s, for road construction on nilachal, a kartikeya shrine, small one was razed and never rebuilt, that place suffered from plague till a huge skanda homa was performed.

Moot point since no temple or shrine is being touched for the project.

siddha purush and expert and advanced sadhakas are against this, there must be something big, stop being blind in support of bjp, i too love bjp and modiji, yogiji, etc but we need to say sometimes on issues for our own good. we never said anything thats why bjp was overconfident that our voters will vote and we will go 40 paar. constructive criticism is necessary.

Frankly, you don't know anything about me to be jumping to such conclusions. You're the one dove into this based on who said what and your assumptions about those people, and then you're calling me blind?

just the other day, a dear friend of mine who is into forex was saying, foreign tourists are not bringing in enough $ in hand when they are visiting India. this is putting pressure pressure on retail forex.

They don't have similar savings as they had back during 90s and 2000s. A bulk of foreigners comes with fewer bucks and stay and eat in cheap places and creates ruckus everywhere in East and South-East Asia and same thing they have started doing here in Indian Subcontinent.​

they do it on purpose, they wont spend on good hotels and then cry how india is dirty and shabby by booking some random hotel in a shady area for 500rs.

i saw a white guy in mumbai duty free, he wanted to buy chocolates and some plush toys, salesman offered him some good swiss ones which were 2000 rs+ but he said show me cheaper ones, preferably below 400-500, and then later bought some cadbury limited edition and kitkat

I was reading comment in a youtube on Indian topic otherday where a comment caught my eye which stated she was old Spanish pensioner who went to India with budget of 1000 rs a day for accomodation alone - as that was what her pension permitted. That caught my eye as that amount is insufficient to get decent rooms in India at most touristy places.

South Asia’s Strategic Makeover is changing

The American withdrawal from Afghanistan, China’s assertiveness in the Asia-Pacific, and India’s rapid rise—both economically and militarily—have reshaped the region’s strategic landscape. Despite its aggressive posture in East Asia, China has failed to reclaim Taiwan. Meanwhile, expectations that Pakistan would dominate post-U.S. Afghanistan fell flat, as the Afghans asserted their independence.

India’s decisive military response to Pakistan’s continued provocations in the May 2025 air war marked a turning point. It signalled India’s arrival as a force no longer to be intimidated.

Simultaneously, the newly elected U.S. president’s aggressive tariff regime disrupted the post-WWII trade order. China, caught off guard, retaliated by restricting exports of rare earth elements critical to high-tech industries. This forced a partial U.S. retreat. Washington now seeks alternative trade partnerships with key Asian economies—Japan, South Korea, Vietnam, Malaysia, and India.

Russia’s Ukraine war has further weakened its global standing. Its dream of reviving Soviet influence remains distant amid economic isolation and sanctions. Once a key market, Russia is now largely cut off from European trade.
As U.S. protectionism deepens, global exporters are rethinking their strategies. America no longer represents an open market. The shift toward regional trade blocs and intra-Asian commerce is accelerating.

These geopolitical shifts also threaten the dominance of the U.S. dollar. As countries diversify away from dollar-based trade, alternative currencies may gain traction.
Three major changes are now reshaping Asian geopolitics:
1. U.S. tariffs have disrupted global trade.
2. China is rising, challenging American influence in the Asia-Pacific.
3. India has emerged as a key regional power, both militarily and economically.

In the long run, the traditional influence of the U.S., Russia, Britain, and France will wane—especially in Asia and the Middle East. A new geopolitical order is taking shape. For India a new goal of influence peddling has to be set.
