In general Chinese are better educated, better work ethic , better fed , more productive and spend far more on research than Indians …

More importantly it has got to with attitude. Chinese in general have a far positive and progressive attitude than Indians

no no

you are wrong

You don't need a mandatory 1/2 child policy. You need to increase awareness, improve access to birth control, increase female participation in labour force, disincentivise having more than 2 children (take away any subsidies, additional taxes and fees, etc.), etc. Once women (espcially rural women) get more say on family matters, birth rates would free fall.

India is too diverse and attitudes about birth control differ among people from state to state. BD will be able to control more effectively than India ever will.

Why Indians are triggered by the image of people tavelling on train, clinging to it, and saying this is not true.

The daily rush hrs in Mumbai local trains.

@Valar. the "was born in Pakistan" should have been a dead giveaway.

And to deal with it we're building the mumbai metro, which has reduced the crowd marginally as of now and will reduce it greatly.

This is history now, only found in neighbouring countries of India like Pakistan/Bangladesh where railway electrification is zero compared to 90% in Indian Railways. Travelling on rooftops = instant electrocution.

In India 400+ million people live below the poverty line. That is not the case in Germany. Even if India overtakes Germany inequality and poverty will remain a big issue.

according to wikipedia india has defeated poverty only has 80 million poor remaining.

meanwhile in real world India has as many 813.5 million poor

The Union Cabinet's decision of December 23, 2022 that the “Central government will provide free foodgrains to about 81.35 crore beneficiaries” under the National Food Security Act (NFSA) of 2013 for a year from January 1, 2023, implies that India has as many (813.5 million) poor who need to be fed for “free”.

It's Mumbai, known for overcrowding in trains.

I spent three years there, and I absolutely detested taking the local trains. However, I also understand that Mumbaikars or people from Mumbai have no issues.

so them 813.5 million who get atta/daal/chawal free from gormint are not extremely poor? free dole started on January 1, 2023

 

[NagaBaba]

so them 813.5 million who will get atta/daal/chawal free from gormint are not extremely poor?

nobody has the correct data

50-60% are not starving

I can understand how this may irritate some Indians, particularly the younger ones, most Indians however, know we have come a long way and have a longer road to tread. While we are talking trains and watching Pakistanis and Bangladeshi haters sitting on top of their high horses, Indians can still be proud they have longer and a more modern rail infrastructure and systems than either of the two countries. India manufactures most of its trains while the other two have no such capacity.

Never a dull moment here when you see under achievers speak like they have done it all or is this the deep insecurities they feel?

Nearly 18 per cent of Americans depend on welfare. Does that imply that they are below poverty line? The grains assistance program was started during the pandemic to ensure no one goes hungry. It has not been rolled back because It’s politically tough to roll back such measures.
