Prime Minister Narendra
said on Friday that despite country’s rich history of victory and sacrifice, colonialera history is taught in educational institutes. Speaking at the 400th birth anniversary celebrations of Lachit Barphukan, Prime Minister said that India’s history was distorted deliberately. “In every corner of the country, bravehearts of Maa Bharati faced the oppressors and sacrificed their lives. Is the valour of Lachit Barphukan not important? Are the sacrifices of thousands of people in Assam against the Mughals not important?” said Prime Minister Modi.

The gap in basic living standards is narrowing for hundreds of millions of people, their needs to thrive in life are also changing. In the current era, new types of inequalities are taking root, mainly arising out of education, technology and climate change. If these ground-shaking changes are not stopped in time, the risk of spreading a giant rift that the world has not seen since the Industrial Revolution will increase
Recently a report on inequali ty in the world has been re leased by the global organiza tion United Nations Research Institute for Social Develop ment (UNRISD). Pointing to the dire consequences of in equality in this, it has been emphasized to create a new eco-social system. This re port, released in October 2022, points to the growing inequality characteristic of the world. This report comes almost two years after the pandemic. In this era the global economy has been hit, which for the first time in several decades has pushed the whole world into extreme poverty. The report says that with the rise of democracy, economic liberalization and free markets, there has been wide disparity in both in come and wealth. The situa tion today is the same as it was at the height of Western imperialism in the early 20th century. In many countries the situation is even worse. The report suggests that while the gap in basic living standards is narrowing for hundreds of millions of peo
ple, their needs to thrive in life are also changing. In the current era, new types of in equalities are taking root, mainly arising out of educa tion, technology and climate change. If these groundshaking changes are not stopped in time, the risk of spreading a giant rift that the world has not seen since the Industrial Revolution will in crease. According to the re port, people are taking to the streets due to many reasons. Ticket prices, petrol prices, demands for political free dom, fairness and justice, etc. This is a new face of inequal ity and inequality is not be yond solutions.
According to the report, the Human Development In dex (HDI) has seen impres sive progress since 1990 and has benefited all sectors, in cluding the least developed countries. The fastest eco nomic growth was seen from 2000 to 2010, but since then this pace has slowed down. From 1990 to 2018, many countries have performed well in terms of human de velopment. The number of countries with high human development has increased from 12 to 62, while the num ber of countries with low hu man development has de creased from 62 to 36. The report clarified that the chal lenge of inequality is not be yond solution and can be
The report also suggested that the tax should be part of a broader policy system, including public spending on health and education, and exploring alternatives to carbon-based lifestyles. Carbon pricing policies can be mismanaged, but revenues from carbon pricing, if used for the benefit of taxpayers as part of a social policy package, will help reduce inequality
dealt with, but bringing ine quality under control will not be easy if the current pat tern continues. The report says that unequal distribu tion in education, health and standard of living affects the progress of the country. Sev eral suggestions have been made in the report to im prove the situation and deal with the growing problem of inequality. According to the report, inequality starts right from the time of birth. The gap between education and health intensifies and can continue until adult hood, so efforts and policies to ameliorate the situation must begin before or even be
On the one hand Maharashtra are as are grappling with the outbreak of measles and on the other the opposition par ties want the Centre to take back their “Amazon packet”. Two vastly different issues but one about human life and health requires greater at tention. That is not exactly how things are playing out in Maharashtra where Mumbai and its surrounding areas have recorded 51 cases of measles indicating low vac cination coverage which is something to be concerned about. The spotlight, howev er, is not on measles as much as it is on Governor Bhagat Singh Koshiyari, dubbed ‘Amazon packet’ for his con troversial remark on
The spotlight, however, is not on measles as much as it is on Governor Bhagat Singh Koshiyari, dubbed ‘Amazon packet’ for his controversial remark on Chhatrapati Shivaji
Chhatrapati Shivaji. Chhatrapati Shivaji is an icon of Maratha pride and the people, including those of the BJP, won’t accept an insult to him. Surprisingly leaders of the BJP, which is part of the Eknath Shinde-faction led state government, seem less agitated than those of the Se na’s Thackeray faction and the Nationalist Congress Par
The report also suggested that the tax should be part of a broader policy system, in cluding public spending on health and education, and ex ploring alternatives to car bon-based lifestyles. The re port underscores the impor tance of new international tax principles to ensure eq uity and avoids the race to lower corporate tax rates. The report says that average fig ures often do not accurately reflect the truth. Further more, effectively tackling in equality requires detailed in formation, especially to com bat the various dimensions of poverty and help those left behind. The report claimed that the nature of inequali ties could change in the fu ture and that the climate cri sis could be a major reason for this. Carbon pricing policies can be mismanaged, but rev enues from carbon pricing, if used for the benefit of taxpay ers as part of a social policy package, will help reduce in equality. Renewable energy, energy efficiency, digital fi nance and health solutions demonstrate how new tech nologies and opportunities can be used to broadly im prove living standards.
According to the report, deep inequalities emerged even before the technological revolutions and now a similar picture is emerging with arti ficial intelligence and digital technologies. In such a situa tion, the need for social protec tion must be emphasized, which will require interna tional consensus on ensuring fair compensation, investing in life-long learning and tax ing digital activities. This will help in building a new, secure and stable digital economy, which will pave the way for human development. The re port also indicates that if steps are not taken in this direction soon, then the situation will be very dire in the coming times and it will become difficult to deal with them.
THE VIEWS EXPRESSED BY THE AUTHOR ARE PERSONALty over Koshiyari calling Shivaji “an icon of the olden times” and Dr BR Ambedkar and Nitin Gadkari “icons of modern times”. Former Chief Minister Uddhav Thackeray went to the extent of suggest ing that the Governor should be sent to an old age home.
Shivaji being a sensitive issue, Deputy Chief Minis ter Devendra Fadnavis has found it hard to defend Ko shiyari who made a similar statement against Mahatma Phule earlier. Centre could be mulling its move as con tinued courting of contro versy by Koshiyari may pose a threat to the SenaBJP alliance. Obviously, measles can be put aside for tackling by health officials while Koshiyari takes the centre stage.
Uttar Pradesh has a trillion dollar dream and Chief Minister Yogi Adityanath is leaving no stone un turned to realise it in the next five years. Ministers will do road shows in several countries to hard sell UP in various coun tries for investments. Together with domestic corporate houses the state has kept an ambitious investment target of Rs 10,000 crore. Pushed by Prime Minis ter Narendra Modi, the state government has been engaging with economists to figure out how this target can be achieved. None could figure out how. Fi nally, consulting company De loitte was hired which has sug gested a road map.
To realise the dream will re quire the state’s gross domestic product to quadruple from 21.73 lakh crore ($270 billion approx imately) in 2021-22, a tall order by any yardstick. The state is banking on its infrastructure (expressways, highways, air ports) and temples and monu ments for religious and histori cal tourism. Despite the govern ment’s best efforts, economists remain sceptical.

for the environment, wearing clothing made of hemp is better for you.

We believe in having a minimalistic collection, using very less embellishments and very intricate details in the fabric itself which makes it unique and class apart.”
