As Vladimir Putin has refused to make peace and has instead ramped up attacks on Ukraine, US lawmakers have sought 500% tariffs on Russia and those countries that buy Russian energy products, such as oil, gas, and uranium.
300rs~4$ per month gets the jio-airtel customer unlimited 5G, network coverage might be issue, but good signal gives 400Mbps, easily defeating starlink speed. Starlink's existence will keep our telecom operators on toes and 5G unlimited plan to stay forever.
India's Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) inflows have surged, reaching $81.04 billion in FY 2024-25, a 14% increase from the previous year. The services sector led as the top recipient, followed by computer software and hardware. Over the past eleven years, India attracted $748.78 billion in FDI...

Exports to rebound in FY26, touch $1 trillion: FIEO
India's exports are projected to hit $1 trillion in FY26, driven by robust growth in electronics, engineering, pharma, and trade deals with the UK, EU, and EFTA, says FIEO. However, new EU regulations like the Digital Product Passport may pose compliance challenges for MSMEs.
Can you give an example, Like what exactly should we change in the curriculum..?
I have heard this thing "Our Education system needs to be change " thing for decade , I am not saying system is best but so far it's working. I also understand there are lot of room for improvement but very few people come up with something tangible, who are crying about the system.
In the this present era of internet we can literally learn whatever we want, however we want from the Youtube, Swayam, etc...! Not saying we shouldn't blame or improve the system, but if someone is lagging behind the System itself does not deserve all the blame.
Still from My perspective following changes we do need in the System
1. Education should be in Mother tongue (This will not go down with lot of people I know.). Reason for this is because I think students would be able to understand the subject far better in their own language instead of English especially STEM subjects .
2. Less importance to English and little bit more to Hindi (will not go down with South state apparently)
3. Logic as a subject in lower classes
4. Ethics as a subject in lower classes (I am a philosophy major so I have soft spot for this subjects)
With all due respect Sir, You have raised some valid points and I will try my best to reply to each/at least some of the points you have put forth.
As I am experiencing some difficulties in quoting your points individually, I will quote your entire post itself.
Before I talk about about our curriculum, I would like to say that the Indian Education's curent curriculum is not the main issue but rather the way we are taught it.
The syllabus of our STEM Subjects in Middle school, High School, Class XIth & XIIth are amazingly detailed and we learn a lot but sometimes it's not taught the right way. This is something that some of us who took science after 10th std will agree on, e.g Rote Memorization aka "Ratta Marna" as we say in Hindi ruins a lot of STEM subjects.
I have seen many complain about how the Indian Education system places too much emphasis on simply mugging up the matter rather than understanding it, Science is more about/all about understanding than simply rote-memorization. I would partially agree with it and disagree with it too because of my own personal experience.
There are some more points I wished to raise on how we are not taught the curriculum in the right way but that is something to talk about some other day, and I don't want to write a very long post here.
Now I said "The Indian Education's curent curriculum is not the main issue but rather the way we are taught it" but does that mean that our curriculum doesn't have room for improvement? No, it does.
We need to revise our textbooks and make them more understanding. This is again subjective - For some, NCERT textbooks are well written & detailed whereas some may find it hard to understand. In my experience, I found it easy to understand the concepts from my NCERT Textbooks of Subjects like Physics, Chemistry, Biology but maths especially Calculus was a bit confusing to me.
We need to add questions which encourage more creative and critical thinking. Sometimes harder ≠ always better, but creative and critical is better. There is a lot of potential areas where we can implement changes in the curriculum, others can tell you more about it.
It is correct that in this digital era, we can learn almost everything on the internet but online learning is not going to replace offline learning anytime soon or ever maybe for that matter. Online media can act as a supplement to offline learning. Some may prefer online, some prefer offline, It's again subjective.
On a minor note - Since this is the thread for discussion about the Indian Economy, this will be my last post talking about the IES as I don't want to unnecessarily clutter this thread with off-topic posts. Henceforth any post of mine talking about our education system will be in a dedicated thread (Which will be opened by me or someone later).

Another thing many schools actually just lack even half decent teachers, nowadays this problem could be solved by just watching many educational youtubers.
I have already mentioned that , our society is very short term goal oriented, the goal of cracking X exam is more important than any knowledge. You create this mentality in kids and they are simply unable to actually think without some threat or punishment, it's s toxic environment.
Another thing your average school kid spends 5-9(yeah some pvt schools in south have 8-5 timing) ,it should not be more than 5, breaks included, for kids below 6th it should be like 4 hours
U.S REPUBLICANS are now threatening to destroy India's IT sector and economy
Unfortunately,Indian policymakers never in their wildest imagination had foretasted that a man-child would ascend to the office of the presidency of the United States, and never bothered about truly diversifying the economy. This over-reliance on an IT-led service-based economy is proving to be a major Achilles' heel to us.

Look at how many jobs are offshored. The problem for American companies is still the same the average American salaries are absurdly high. Rehiring all the American devs will at American salaries will fuck these companies up

This faggot is a nobody. Low IQ redneck veteran grifter worked in a dozen IT companies for few months each. He thinks faggots like him can handle the US IT industry's demand. https://www.linkedin.com/in/virgil-bierschwale-2b82a6251

Does Trump care about or understand the consequences of his actions? No
His rabid support base is determined to end IT offshoring and the H-1B visa program, and there’s a strong likelihood he will follow through. He has already sidelined figures like Elon Musk due to their pro-H-1B visa stance, so we must be mentally prepared for the fallout.
Also don't pin your hopes on this menace to end in 2028, there is a high chance another mental maladroit could take his place.
Therefore, Indian IT coolie companies must seriously consider diversifying revenue streams, shifting to product development, and expanding into non-U.S. markets.
Agreed. Science is already taught in the mother tongue across many state education boards. I personally studied science in my mother tongue up to Class 10, where most scientific terminology was presented in both the local language and English. For instance, terms like Bighatan Pratikriya (Decomposition Reaction) and Visthapan Pratikriya (Displacement Reaction) were commonly used. This bilingual approach made it easier to grasp the concepts while gradually building familiarity with English terms.
In my experience, this method doesn't hinder comprehension. Science, after all, is less about memorisation and more about understanding principles and their practical applications. Whether a student describes a chemical reaction in Tamil, Kannada, Telugu, Bengali, Odia, Hindi, or English, the underlying process remains the same. A well-formed explanation in any language reflects genuine understanding. Moreover, when concepts are first introduced in a language familiar to the learner, they often connect more intuitively and build a stronger foundation for future learning.
While this is anecdotal, I’ve seen many students from state board backgrounds transition successfully into higher education, even when the medium shifts entirely to English. Those who made a conscious effort to improve their English skills during school years adapted well.
Sankrant Sanu has done a lot of research on this subject, if we need to become a tech superpower we will need to do this eventually. More than any method of instruction it is what language you think in that makes a difference, our languages are more sophisticated than English so if the necessary material is available we will have a lot more like the former ISRO chairman who was vernacular educated.
