Indian economy and its transformation does not rest on agriculture. It rests on the growth of manufacturing that can absorb low-skill employment and the expansion of the high-skill services sector that will generate value added.

Agree with Agriculture where Automation Began 1000s of Years Ago. NEED INTEGRATED SKILLS, EDUCATION - EASIEST JOBS TO AUTOMATE - Low-End Manufacturing + Services. NEXT EASIEST JOBS TO AUTOMATE - High-End Manufacturing (4D Printing, Self Healing Tech etc)-Already Exists in India TOO - Roads, Clothes, etc. TOUGHEST Jobs to Automate - Intellectual Property, Knowledge Management, Strategic Management, Relationship Building, Creativity + Innovation

This is one of the rare interviews that has its pulse on the real India. Unfortunately, the Modi government is more interested in emulating Bollywood: that is, all fluff and little substance. It's the agrarian sector that is the backbone of the Indian economy; not Adani. But the Indian Modi/BJP government has become an oligarchy.

@user-rg7jt4xp9y 5 ай бұрын

Adani could have provided the backbone called cold storage supply chain to the farming community in India and make India self sufficient in nutritious, high value foods and also made the farmers rich by enabling exports to the global market. But vested interests ruined everything. The middlemen and the leftists held the country to ransom and shot down the farm laws.

The problem is with those economists who do their masters and PhD & getting fat pay cheques ignorant of truth. Second what is the definition of nutritious food ? Nutritious food in china or Japan or singapore is not the same as nutritious food in Europe and USA. Our food including madam economist consume carbohydrate which is not nutritious. Ambani , Mahindra, Godrej, Godi, RBI governor and u and me consume 80% carb which is not nutritious in science. Secondly when 100 crore depends on govt ration why so many feed these rations to their cows & buffalos? That’s partly freebies and partly incorrect figure. Third tell me one single developed nation whose economist developed their nations to non poverty nation. Stalin, Mao, we’re not economist. To me economists are statisticians and nothing more with no clue on science and tech and governess
