Despite 10 years of funding, #SmartCityMission has been limited to surface-level fixes on aging infrastructure. The mission has delivered temporary solutions that lack a forward-thinking approach in strategies. ✍️@asmi_26 & @nancy_pathak @_FANIndia scroll.in/article/1087669/cr…

After all the ultra rich & powerful will want no accountability, no oversight, no news, no information. So that they can continue their loot. But if we stand against inequality & exploitation, we must protect laws like the RTI. No democracy without accountability.#RTI #TaxTheTop

Even after 17 years, NSAP allocation remains stuck at just Rs 200-300. How long will this neglect continue? @asmi_26 & I analyse the NSAP budget 2025-26. @cfa_ind @_FANIndia @alwaysfranc @NREGA_Sangharsh @rozi_roti

For over a decade, the NSAP budget has been systematically undermined. @nancy_pathak and I break down the numbers and discuss what a meaningful social security framework should look like 👉 thewire.in/news/budget-for-n… @nikhilmkss @givepensions @NPRD_IN

Hydropower is often touted as a clean energy source ⚡, but building dams in unsupportive regions threatens lives and livelihoods. We need to rethink our approach & harmonise safety & sustainability in energy demands. 💡🛑 #OneYearofTeesta3Collapse 1/n

Employment in manufacturing dropped from 12.8% in 2012 to 11.5% in 2018, far below Bangladesh's 16%. It's taken until 2022 to recover to 2012 levels. A lost decade for youth while Adani’s wealth increased by 1225% in 10 years. #EndTheBillionaireRaj #LokSabhaElections2024

In 2023, 46% of India's workforce is under-employed in agriculture, contributing only 15% of GDP. The FM's claims of skill utilisation seem wishful. He seems to be "skilled" only in enriching his corporate friends. #EndTheBillionaireRaj #LokSabhaElections2024
