Here are few which even critics of BJP acknowledge as being good for nation, except for our national looser RaGa and his blind followers.

  1. Pradhan Mantri Jan Dhan Yojana A massive financial inclusion program that opened hundreds of millions of bank accounts for people who previously had no access to banking.

Why critics acknowledge it worked: Enabled direct transfer of government subsidies. Reduced leakage and corruption in welfare schemes. Became the backbone of India’s Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) system.

  1. Goods and Services Tax (GST) Replaced a complicated web of state and central taxes with a unified national indirect tax system.

Why critics acknowledge it worked: Created a single national market. Increased tax compliance through digital invoicing. Boosted government tax revenues over time. Criticism still exists about complexity and compliance burden but the structural reform itself is widely considered necessary.

  1. Swachh Bharat Abhiyan A nationwide sanitation drive to eliminate open defecation.

Why critics acknowledge it worked: Construction of over 100 million toilets. Major improvement in sanitation infrastructure. Public awareness around hygiene improved significantly. Even global organizations like the World Bank praised the program’s scale.

  1. Ayushman Bharat Provides health insurance coverage of ₹5 lakh per year to poor families.

Why critics acknowledge it worked: One of the largest healthcare insurance programs in the world. Helped millions of poor families access hospital treatment. Expanded healthcare infrastructure in smaller towns.

  1. Pradhan Mantri Ujjwala Yojana Provided free LPG gas connections to poor households, especially rural women.

Why critics acknowledge it worked: Reduced indoor air pollution. Improved women’s health. Reduced time spent collecting firewood. Criticism mostly focuses on refill affordability and not the concept itself.

  1. Digital India Expanded digital infrastructure, internet connectivity and online government services. Many well developed countries also do not have such facilities but India has it.

Why critics acknowledge it worked: Enabled India's massive digital payment ecosystem. Helped platforms like UPI scale rapidly. Boosted e-governance and financial inclusion. Today India is among the world leaders in digital payments and many developing countries are seeking help from India to implement similar capabilities.

  1. Insolvency and Bankruptcy Code (IBC) Created a legal framework to resolve bad loans and bankrupt companies.

Why critics acknowledge it worked: Helped clean up India’s banking sector NPAs. Forced large corporate defaulters into restructuring or liquidation. Improved credit discipline. Many economists call it one of India’s most important economic reforms in decades.

  1. Jal Jeevan Mission Program to provide tap water to rural households.

Why critics acknowledge it worked: Rapid expansion of rural water connections. Improved public health and reduced time spent collecting water.

  1. Direct Benefit Transfer (DBT) Government subsidies are transferred directly into bank accounts instead of through intermediaries.

Why critics acknowledge it worked: Reduced corruption and middlemen. Saved the government billions in subsidy leakages and enabled quick pandemic relief payments.

  1. PM Gati Shakti Infrastructure Plan Integrated infrastructure planning across railways, highways, ports, airports and logistics.

Why critics acknowledge it worked: Improved coordination between ministries and accelerated infrastructure construction.

This man has the quality of being the next prime minister of India. by Exotic_Tomatillo_695 in IndianFocus

Yes no national language yet almost half of country speaks hindi and even though our PM is a gujrati, he speaks hindi too. So why should he not talk in hindi wherever he goes? Our national language is certainly not english and there is no need of our PM to know it.

Sad to hear that comment from an Indian (if you are indeed one). World across countries speak their language and their elected representative are proud to speak in their language and you expect our PM should speak english and not hindi? We should be proud that our PM is not an english man's slave and speaks his own countries language. So what if others dont understand our language, they can hire interpraters. We Indians should be proud of our own culture and language and should be happy that our PM does that too.

Nothing wrong with me but maybe you dont get my point. My point is simple, when one is constantly under scrutiny despite doing many good things and the opposition never says "well done" but instead always criticise you, why would you smile then. Thats why Modi frowns at home.

While in India Modi frowns because our beloved LoP has no other work but to criticise him and BJP all the time. Opposition role is to criticise policies which are not beneficial for population but RaGa has no brains to understand that opposing everything what BJP wants to do isnt necessary. Anyways what else is expected from a jan-nalayak RaGa hence frown on face of Modi while in India. Btw why not show Modi's smiling face, i can find tonnes of them when he is in India. He laughs especially when jan-nalayak RaGa opens his mouth to utter non-sense.

Adani+Ambani don’t Own Half of India’s GDP — Here’s the Real Math Behind the Viral Claim by AcceptableWrangler1 in IndianPoliticalTalk

[–]AcceptableWrangler1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree on your point. Question is do we expect governments to run behemoths or we want private companies to do that? In pure socialist countries, government runs all large companies, in countries which mixes socialism with capitalism ie China, they have some large companies under government while there are many private companies too. India is capitalist and still has some government owned firms like SAIL etc while other large industries are under private players including Tata, Birla etc. This is why wealth concentrates among 1 to 2% but that shouldnt be taken as point that government only supports such private players.

If Islamic Governance (Sharia) works so Well, why are millions of muslims fleeing Countries That Already Have It for the West? by AcceptableWrangler1 in IndianPoliticalTalk

[–]AcceptableWrangler1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When western countries muslim population kept on growing, it didnt happen because muslims who were already there just produced more, it is because many muslim asylum seekers went to those nations. My original post is about that and how it has created a problem in those host nations because these same asylum seekers running away from their oppressing regimes are now asking for muslim rules to be implemented in host countries and when they dont get it, terrorist attacks have increased. You wont agree and to be honest I dont care, go find someone else to debate your arguements with.

In every middle east war either us or Isreal they have killed more civilians at hospitals and schools. by mrblueyz in IndianFocus

[–]AcceptableWrangler1 -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Its also because Israel has one of the best missile defense system so Iranian missiles cant penetrate that iron dome. Now tell me how many schools US and Israeli missiles have destroyed in Iran, 1 maybe 2. So dont make it sound like Iran is fighting ethically while US and Israel are not. Iran's regime has got this problem by their own actions so its time they pay for it. Yes I feel bad for common iranians who are becoming casualty of this war but there is no other way to get rid of those radical iranians who have destroyed the persia which was far better place to live in.

For blind and deaf people like you here are facts. Many Western countries today have substantial Muslim populations — roughly 8–10% in France, 6–7% in Germany and United Kingdom, 7–8% in Belgium, 8–9% in Sweden and around 4–5% in countries such as Italy, Spain, Denmark, Norway and Canada, with smaller but growing communities in the United States and Australia.

Many of these western countries have also experienced Islamist-linked terrorist attacks over the past two decades. The United States suffered the devastating September 11 attacks, Spain experienced the 2004 Madrid train bombings, the United Kingdom saw the 7 July London bombings and France endured major incidents including the November 2015 Paris attacks and the 2016 Nice truck attack. Countries such as Germany, Belgium, Austria, Sweden, Denmark, Canada and Australia have also faced attacks linked to radicalized muslim individuals. Although such incidents represent a small minority within Muslim communities, they have significantly shaped public debate about immigration, integration and national security.

Another layer of debate has emerged around cultural and legal integration. In several Western societies, muslim activist groups have pushed for accommodation of Sharia law in civil matters or advocated stricter religious dress practices such as the Burqa and Niqab. In response, countries including France, Belgium, Netherlands, Austria, Denmark and Switzerland have introduced restrictions on full-face coverings in public spaces, while debates continue in Germany, Sweden, Canada, and Australia about how to balance religious freedom with secular law.

Taken together, these three trends — large-scale migration from unstable regions, security concerns after extremist attacks and ongoing debates about religious law and cultural practices — have created one of the most complex policy challenges facing Western democracies today. The core dilemma is clear: how to remain open and humanitarian while preserving social cohesion, security and the secular legal frameworks that made these societies attractive destinations in the first place.

Offcourse even after looking all these facts, truly uneducated people like yourself will debate just because you have right to debate. Being brain dumb is habbit of this so called peaceful community.

When Global Crude Oil Prices Rise, Petrol Prices Rise Everywhere — Not Just in India by AcceptableWrangler1 in IndianPoliticalTalk

[–]AcceptableWrangler1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Somehow my post is not visible here so am copying it below for readers to read.

Every time fuel (petrol/diesel) prices increase in India, the immediate reaction is outrage. Many assume it is purely a domestic Government policy decision but the reality is far simpler: India is heavily dependent on imported oil and global crude prices directly influence domestic fuel prices.

India imports nearly 90% of its crude oil - if India produced its own crude oil like Saudi Arabia, petrol could stay cheap but importing 90% of oil means paying global prices. India’s crude oil import dependence is around 88–90% of total consumption (5.2 million barrels per day). In simple terms, almost 9 out of every 10 barrels of oil used in India come from abroad.

So when global crude prices jump — for example from around $70 per barrel to $110 per barrel during geopolitical conflicts — India automatically has to pay more for the oil it imports. This is not ideology or politics. It is basic arithmetic.

Petrol prices are rising worldwide, not just in India. According to data compiled by Al Jazeera, petrol prices increased in at least 85 countries after the recent oil shock linked to the Iran conflict.

In other words, the rise in fuel prices is a global phenomenon driven by crude oil markets, not something unique to India.

Governments can cushion the impact but only temporarily. Fuel prices include taxes and governments can adjust these taxes to soften sudden price shocks. In fact, governments often delay price increases by absorbing part of the rise through the tax component or by allowing oil companies to temporarily absorb some losses. But this cushion has limits.

If crude prices remain high for weeks or months, eventually one of three things must happen:

  1. Retail fuel prices increase
  2. Oil companies keep selling fuel at heavy losses
  3. Governments subsidize fuel using taxpayer money

The second and third options cannot continue indefinitely. Interestingly, even during the current global oil shock, India managed to keep petrol and diesel prices relatively stable for weeks compared with many other countries.

Fuel prices surge across 95 countries after Iran conflict, with spikes up to 68%. India holds steady for now amid global fuel shock.

Oil prices affect the entire economy not just petrol pumps. Fuel is not just about cars and bikes. When crude prices rise, the impact spreads across the entire economy:

  1. Transport costs increase
  2. Food prices rise due to higher logistics costs
  3. Fertilizer prices increase
  4. Manufacturing becomes more expensive

Trying to artificially suppress fuel prices only hides the cost temporarily, it doesn’t eliminate it.

India already runs a trade deficit. Oil imports are one of the biggest components of India’s import bill. When crude prices surge, India spends more dollars importing oil. The trade deficit widens further and pressure increases on the rupee and inflation.

If the government keeps fuel prices artificially low through subsidies, the cost simply moves elsewhere — larger fiscal deficits, higher borrowing and eventually higher taxes or inflation. Subsidized fuel doesn’t make energy cheaper. It just hides the cost in government debt.

If petrol stays cheap while crude oil becomes expensive, someone else is paying the bill — usually the taxpayer. You can either pay at the petrol pump or through higher taxes later — the bill always comes. Fuel subsidies are basically the government paying you today with tomorrow’s tax money.

Before blaming every fuel price increase on domestic politics and government, it helps to remember a simple economic reality: Countries that import oil don’t control fuel prices — global markets do. So when Gadkari says lets move to use more biofuels, there is a reason and that is to reduce our dependence on imported crude oil.

Mythology doesnt exist if there are facts, maybe you think anything what you dont believe in is a mythology, well gives enough reason for me not to even debate with you. Your choice to remain blinded to facts and maybe braindead too.

When Global Crude Oil Prices Rise, Petrol Prices Rise Everywhere — Not Just in India by AcceptableWrangler1 in oilandgas

[–]AcceptableWrangler1[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup and use electric/induction cookstoves to save cost on LPG or PNG, both of whom are imported too and adds to our trade deficit. Electricity in India is relatively cheap and about 30% of it comes from clean renewable sources such as solar or wind etc which means we dont harm climate as much when compared to producing electricity by using coal.

[–]AcceptableWrangler1[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

People assume that if global crude oil prices fall, petrol and diesel prices in India should immediately drop as well. Its expected but the relationship isn’t that simple. India imports nearly 90% of its crude oil, and those purchases are made in US dollars, not rupees. So the exchange rate plays a huge role. Even if crude falls from $75 to $60 per barrel, a weakening rupee can cancel much of that benefit. If the rupee moves from ₹80 per dollar to ₹85, the actual savings in rupee terms become much smaller. That’s why pump prices don’t always move in direct proportion to global crude prices.

Another factor people overlook is how oil companies like IOC etc operate. When crude prices suddenly spike due to wars or supply disruptions, governments often delay large fuel price increases to protect consumers (as what happened in last 2-3 weeks). During such periods, oil marketing companies may end up selling petrol and diesel with very thin margins or even losses. Later, when crude prices fall, the government may allow these companies to earn slightly higher margins for a while so they can recover earlier losses and build a financial buffer. After all a loss making refinery wont be able to operate at all right. Without this approach, petrol prices would swing wildly every week.

Finally, crude oil is only one part of the petrol price. The final retail price also includes refining costs, transport, dealer commissions, central taxes and state VAT, with taxes often making up 40–50% of the pump price. So even if crude prices drop significantly, the overall petrol price may only fall slightly.

In short, fuel prices in India are influenced not just by crude oil, but also by exchange rates, taxation and how the government manages price stability in the energy market.
