When Modi came to power in May 2014, all the instruments for democracy's demolition had already been assembled and politely passed along from one government to the next. In the hands of a populist demagogue such as Modi, the demolition instruments proved to be a wrecking ball.

#WorldBookDay | @sahaprd's 'The Learning Trap' traces #ByjuRaveendran’s meteoric rise and inevitable fall but glosses over deep systemic challenges in India’s #education sector. @AshokaMody writes. frontline.thehindu.com/books/book-rev… @juggernautbooks

Byju Raveendran is hiding in Dubai with a stash of cash as his free-falling company refuses to pay desperate vendors and employees. The wife of one of Vijay Mallya’s employees committed suicide when her husband did not get his salary. Must history repeat? themorningcontext.com/internet/opera…
Hits you in the gut. Chinese universities are racing past the world's best. We are destroying ours. Remember Allahabad University, Oxford of the East? Now Delhi University. @mukulkesavan tells us why: a bipartisan consensus to an elite model of development.

Very apt. The reigning ideology shifts responsibility to the individual and disavows collective responsibility. This is the great moral failure of the last half-century. It applies to education/health, and beyond. There is little hope for change. @CNguyenEc @GhoshAmitav

In India, casting a fog on statistics has become the easy way to claim progress. Others have tried it too. Works temporarily.

Because the poor face high inflation rates, extreme poverty remains high, and large numbers who are not “extremely poor,” remain nevertheless severely deprived, especially in urban areas.

@AshokaMody @juggernautbooks @Chikisarkar @stanfordpress Excellent analysis backed by solid data. A must read for the younger generations who may not have the full perspective of how India's unemployment situation is a result of several historical blunders by almost all PMs. Have recommended this book to many of my friends.
