We are not in favour of westernization, but we are in favour of modernization, in the villages. This is the time for socio-economic transformation.

MSMEs contribute 30% of the GDP of India, and there are 6.5 crore units, Sh. Gadkari said the government’s aim is to increase the contribution to 40% of GDP, so that rural poor are benefited. Policy has to be made which will empower the poor, he emphasised. The Minister said “We  are not in favour of westernization, but we are in favour of modernization, in the villages. This is the time for socio-economic transformation.

Recalling the philosophy of Mahatma Gandh, VinobhaBhave, Pandit Deendayal Upadhyaya, Ram Manohar Lohia and Jayaprakash Narayan, he said that their aim was the same – to improve the lives of the poor living in villages. Unless solutions are found to ensure that employment is generated in the villages, and they are clean and have enough facilities, the dreams of these leaders will not be fulfilled, he said. Migration of as much as 30% of the country’s population from rural areas took place since independence due to lack of growth of the village economy,.

The crisis of ethical values in modern times is traced to a narrow perception of the good life. Discuss. ?

-
 The crisis of ethical values in modern times can indeed be attributed, in part, to a narrow perception of the good life. When the concept of a "good life" becomes limited to material wealth, individual success, and immediate gratification, ethical values and considerations can often be overshadowed or compromised. Here's a discussion on this issue, along with examples: 1. Materialism and Consumerism: In modern society, there is often an emphasis on material possessions and consumerism as markers of a good life. This narrow focus on material wealth and accumulation can lead to a neglect of ethical values such as compassion, empathy, and social responsibility. For example, individuals may prioritize personal financial gain at the expense of fair and equitable distribution of resources in society. 2. Individualism and Self-Interest: The pursuit of individual success and self-interest can sometimes override ethical considerations for the well-being of others and the larger c...

What are the main bottlenecks in upstream and downstream process of marketing of Agricultural products in India?

-
 In the marketing of agricultural products in India, there are several bottlenecks or challenges faced both in the upstream and downstream processes. These bottlenecks can vary depending on the specific product and region, but here are some common examples: Upstream Bottlenecks: 1. Fragmented Farming: Indian agriculture is predominantly characterized by small and fragmented landholdings. This leads to inefficiencies in production, as small farmers lack economies of scale and face challenges in adopting modern farming techniques. 2. Lack of Infrastructure: Inadequate infrastructure such as storage facilities, transportation networks, and irrigation systems pose significant challenges. Poor post-harvest management facilities lead to substantial losses, and inadequate transportation networks result in delays and increased costs. 3. Limited Access to Finance: Farmers often struggle to access formal credit due to insufficient collateral, resulting in reliance on informal lenders who cha...

What does this pollution mean in terms of economic growth? Will India's economy be affected by this pollution?10M

-
  Air pollution will be the biggest leveller because it will affect both the rich and the poor. But the rich will be able to afford the cost of dealing with chronic asthma and cancer whereas the poor will not be able to do so. In other words, India's wealth will be built on the backs of its poor, its elderly, its children and those genetically susceptible. Not on the back of the economy but on the back of public health. In terms of numbers?  A million die each year because of water pollution and this is still largely because of the traditional form of pollution which results from human filth. The new water pollution will add to this all kind of horrendous diseases like cancers and neurological disorders. It is estimated that at least one lakh die each year from urban air pollution. Thus, at the least one million or more will continue to die from pollution each year in India. This figure will rise to probably 2-3 million a year with growing pollution. But tens of millions will ...
