Fiscal loosening is not reform, boosting productivity and slashing red tape is

Current Hindi news Lucknow  In a few weeks the Narendra Modi government will unveil its last full budget. It will be presented on the heels of a disruptive year which was characterised by a slowdown in economic growth and a transition to Goods and Services Tax (GST). The combined impact of these factors can lead to a short-term slackening in the pace of tax collections and a hunt for ways to boost growth. Proposals to deviate from government’s roadmap on fiscal consolidation are back on the table as a way to offset a slowdown. This is a bad idea and deserves to be rejected.

Government runs a fiscal deficit, or borrows to spend more than it earns. Beyond a point, it has adverse consequences such as inflation and macroeconomic destabilisation. There is, therefore, a roadmap in place to curtail the relative size of deficit. We don’t have a reason to deviate from it as no durable solution to economic challenges, including agrarian distress and jobs shortage, will arise from borrowing more. The solution should instead focus on increasing productivity in agriculture, helping entrepreneurs create more jobs and reforming the creaking and middleman-dominated welfare system.

An important challenge facing agriculture is that the technological revolution has passed it by. Government has a crucial role to play in creating a hospitable environment for new technology. In addition, it must permit farmers to contract with all kinds of players. There is enough evidence that private sector players are able to establish durable linkages with farmers which includes introduction of cutting edge technology. Today, the overburdened farmer puts up almost 80% of agricultural investment. Government needs to open the door for others to pitch in. Latest news of Jaunpur in Hindi

Intertwined with agrarian distress is a jobs crisis. India simply does not generate enough decent jobs for its young. A robust manufacturing sector is essential to deal with this problem. The only way to bring this about is to drastically cut red tape which inhibits expansion of existing firms and entry of new ones. Reducing bureaucracy needs to begin at home. Thanks to an oil windfall, India’s subsidies as a percentage of GDP has declined over the last three years to 1.53% in 2016-17. This needs to be supplemented by hastening the rollout of direct benefits transfer, which will cut out middlemen and offer citizens choice in spending. These reforms should be the budget’s focus.

United States Move to Cut Aid to Pakistan

Latest News in hindi Now a days the world is seeing different news from across the world, One of the great news that we saw recent statement and tweet from US President Donald trumph on Jan 2018 that “United States has foolishly given Pakistan more than 33 billion dollars in aid in last 15 years, and they have given us nothing in return but lies and deceit”. Donald Trump also alleged Pakistan that he harbored terrorists only. He also Stated that Us will suspend all its security assistance to Pakistan, unless and until Pakistan takes “decisive action” against all the Talibani and Haqqani network, and militant groups . He also stated that on one side US is providing fund aids to Pakistan and on other hand Pakistan is helping terrorist, funding them and killing their Army personals in Afghanistan. Also US announced that that it had placed Pakistan on a “ Watch list” of countires seen as failing to protect religious freedom.  This action is seeing an an indicator of deteriorating US- Pakistan relation and challenging US patience.Lucknow city news headlines

During the cold era US- Pakistan relationship were going in a smooth way when Pakistan was overly aligned towards the US Bloc of nations and India, through claimed to be nonaligned , had a learning towards Soviet bloc. The relationship of Pakistan and US saw a dip during the Presidency of Jimmy Carter due to Pakistan’s nuclear program and during the execution of Zulfikar Ali Bhutto in April 1979 by President, Gen Muhammed Zia Ul Haq. 

The Soviet- Afghan war lasted for over nine years where Pakistan and US provided the tacit support to the insurgent groups that fought a guerrilla war against the soviet Army and Afghanistan.

If we will talk about Taliban it was a creation of Pakistani intelligence agency ISI but ity was funded by the US. United States also provided 3 billion dollars to build the Islamic group and provided them arms and ammunition, of which they did not took any track and record after the Soviet war.In year 1966 the Taliban captured the Afghanistan under leadership of Mullah Mohammed Omar and Al Qaeda provided close support to Taliban with thousands of imported fighters from Pakistan and central Asia.Latest news Kanpur in Hindi

Not only this foreign aid to Pakistan was also provided by the United States including military aid and economic assistance after the country creation in 1947.In a report from the US Embassy in Islamabad upto 70% of the funds were given to Pakistan military to support the Pakistan/ Afghanistan borders disputes and much of it was used against India.

It is very unlikely that Pakistan will retaliate very drastically to the US move by shutting overland access of US supplies to Kabul as it could lead to suspension of all ties with the US. Besides , Us has another option for supplying its troops in Afghanistan which will increase its military presence in Turkmenistan.

Moreover US could block even the development funding to Pakistan and also could remove Pakistan from list of major non- Nato allies , designate it as a state sponsor of terrorism, or work with India and Afghanistan to more aggressively counter its interests in the region.  Closer China-Pakistan can have serious military ramifications for India. Beijing is currently waging a full scale psychological warfare against India by displaying aggression in the North East, especially Arunachal Pradesh. It is primarily testing the military gumption and political will of India.Latest news of Jaunpur in Hindi

It is closing in on India from multiple flanks, extending from the Northeast to J&K and further to the Indian Ocean.

India must be prepared for an increased Kashmir interference by China due to its investments in the ‘One Belt One Road’ project that cuts across Pakistan-held J&K.

Chinese military presence in this area has been slowly growing, including near the Line of Control. India now faces Chinese troops on both flanks of its portion of J&K and a deepening China-Pakistan nexus presents India with a two-front theatre in the event of a war with either country.Gorakhpur news in HIndi
