China is slowing down as most countries have diversified ...

[Piyushkumar-ihq]

An intense heatwave reduced private consumption and impacted agriculture, while the general election influenced government spending. These factors were unique to the last quarter, so it's little surprise that GDP growth slowed down. However, the outlook for growth looks positive for the upcoming quarters, as the unfavorable factors for slow growth are now behind us.

Growth in China translates into jobs creation. China's youth unemployment rate went down to just 11% compared to 21% earlier this year. India, the self-proclaimed world's fastest growing economy, unemployment rate among youths went up to 49% as of today according to the Centre for Monitoring Indian Economy, CMIE Mumbai

India would never become a superpower, it hurts me to say this, but that's the reality, we have young people but we have huge numbers of unemployment, we have droughts as well as floods and sometimes those 2 going on together and that too sometimes in the same state, we have large army force but small budget, we can't curb this ever growing population since Independence, we have leaders which rather than admitting mistakes, blame other leaders or sometimes just say we have atleast not done that, we have females which can become doctors, engineers, teachers and many more but many of them sadly suffer from sexual assault and violence, Indians do great when they reach any other country outside India, why can't we do good in our own country, this country needs to be taught civic science, gender equality, sex education, moral education and that too based on new curriculum, not from some 100 years old British era books, may God bless India and its citizens and may our politicians gain the will and knowledge to put their country first, atleast sometimes.

334 Billionaires....800m people living on government ration every month. 350m can't read or write. Well done, India!

[waheeduddinsyed]

My heart is crying for my Mother India.
Due to bad politics and very bad policies of government's.
Now to improve economy interest rates should be brought down but dilemma is people are asking higher interest to invest in FD. Taxes cannot be reduced as debt is very high due to which consumption is getting slower, so taxes collection is also decreasing...
So taxes need to be increased and vice versa. So we are in dilemma we cannot do anything neither public or govermnet until everything settles

If i were the Prime Minister i will
1. Immediately roll back every taxes even personal income tax . All state taxes should be abolished.
2. Two slabs of Gst 5 percent and 20 percent. NO CESS AND NO VAT.
3 . Corporate tax SHOULD be Reduced to 15 percent flat.
4. And Getting Licenses for Businesses should be made Easy and no Bribing required.
5. Strict Punishment for culprits.
6. First two years government will have some hard time to meet revenues but that can be easily managed by our MIGHTY FOREX RESERVES.
7. Economy will increase UNDOUBTEDLY in double digits. WE WILL BECOME a leading exporter.
8 . There will be Job creation in Crores.
9. AS Income tax is abolished all the black money will return to 🇮🇳 for development. All the problems of India will be solved.
10 . I WANT TO SEE MY INDIA AS A GOLDEN TIGER.

[jayasuriyaj]

india had 100 rs, 10% increase... so 110.
Chinese had 500rs, 5% increase... so 525.

india gained 10rs, china gained 25rs.
they earned more money than India.

That 10rs gain is ambani and adani bank balance, nothing to do with common people.

fastest growing country my hassss.
