UNEVEN WEALTH HOLDING IN INDIA

Image
Where  India is placed in the world with it's economic status is not the place provided for the Indians. India is placed 6th  now in the world in GDP ranking  now (slipped from 4th to 6th in April 2026) India (rather Indian population) rank 139 in GDP per capita nominal- 2023 and 127 in GDP per capita PPP 2023. These clearly indicate that the people and the country are placed at quite  distant spots. According to Forbes (India) the PCI of the top five GDP countries are given below.  GDP per capita in USD thousand is: USA - 80.03, China - 13.72, Japan - 35.39, Germany - 51.38 India - 2.6 It can be seen from the above list that India is placed far below with a paltry sum. As per a report by The Times of India on 26 January 2023, 1% of the rich population of India hold 40% of the wealth of the country. The report further reveals that the bottom half of the Indian population hold just 3% of the wealth of the country. According to a report of Oxfam Intern...

HOW IS THE REAL KERALA PEOPLE?

Image
This  is not being written with the help of any approved statistics but from quite extensive experience. I have widely travelled in India and mingled with people from different regions. The people of Kerala are gifted with a super status in literacy. I don't think it is a great achievement. If all the Indian states have the literacy standard of LKG, Kerala is at UKG. That much is the difference. Kerala is nowhere near the advanced countries of the world There is no society in the world who prevent their own economic development, but Keralites are the one. During the past decades hundreds of industrialists came here with many proposals to start industries here but the people turned them away. A large group of South Korean industrialists came here with large novel proposal of household industries. They made this proposal considering two things; a) educated and skilled man power, b) scarcity of land. Though there was large scope for this the state has rejected it outright....

India rank 41 out of 44 countries in old age pension. There are 14.9 cr people in India aged 60 and above as on 2022. This is 10.5 % of the total population. We may find here the old age pension prevailing in some selected countries in the world. UK £12,792 p.a. (Rs 13,35,485) or Rs1,11,290 per month. France $1,327 p.m. (Rs1,10,592) Netherlands EUR 1230.24 + holiday allowance 72.04 =EUR 1302.28 (Rs1,18,911.p.m) Many countries in the world are paying old age pension more or less in the same level as shown above. But unfortunately we old age people are considered scrap by our great country. According to National Policy on Sr Citizens 2011 the estimated population of Sr Citizens would be as below (in millions) Yr.        Popula-     60+        80+             tion 2000     1008         76           6 2050     1...

BRAIN DRAIN FROM INDIA

Image
In the health sector, India being the largest populated country in the world, has 1.7 nurses per 1,000 population and 1.0 doctor per 1,404 population. According to WHO norm there should be 3 nurses per 1,000 population and 1.0 doctor per 1,100 population. As per the report of Ministry of External Affairs 32 million NRIs and OCIs are now living abroad. About 2.5 million people are leaving the country every year. These make Indian citizens the highest numbers settled abroad. Annual remittance from them in 2020-21 was $87 billion which contributes 2.75% of the GDP. In 2024  ( FY). the total remittance  from Indians abroad  reachad approximately $135 tomorrow to $138 billion.(the exact figure may be got confirmed) While the successive governments might be looking it as a positive sign, if get into it deeply we may find that it may not be so positive. We may see an example for this. Let us imagine about a big family of large members having plenty of fertile land. T...

HOW WE INDIANS CONVERT OUR LIVES TO BE SUCCESSFUL

Image
( Saroj ini Naidu  The Nightingale of India)  According to the social reckoning prevailing in our country success in life rated by the wealth possessed or the power held. No one bothers about the way the wealth is accumulated or the power is acquired, but how much you hold that matter. Even if a known thief has large house and costly cars there would be many people to respect him at public. There are primarily two reasons for this situation in our society. People only consider what you have, not how you have earned those. These subjects are not taught to our children because no one bothers to include those in the school syllabus. Even the simple definition for success is nothing but defeating the opponent. Over and and above these we have such amount of religions to reform the human beings from committing wrongs in the society. There are such amount of divine subjects to teach our today's and tomorrow's generations like love one another, forgive everyone, help the ...
