Kudos for RSTV for bringing such intelligent panelist. Well worth debate 👌

Instead of UBI following steps should be consider- 1. 1000rs per month to unemployed graduate upto 3 years of study. 2. 1000rs per month to marginal farmers below 2 acre land. 3. 10000 allowance to girls on getting first public sector and formal private sector job. 4. Widow and old age pensions . 5. More profits to MSMEs.

frank has good knowledge and detailed information on topic he chooses. otherwise other anchor just catch threads of previous speaker and ask question to next speaker.

Tripathi sir put it in right context with different theory such as State knows the best better than person. Trickle down effect , growth of economy will lead to reduce poverty. Really eminent and knowledgeable pannel

the economic survey 2016 - 2017 suggested UBI for alleviation of poverty. Similar schemes: 1)mgnrega-guaranteed paid work for 100 days 2) Andhra Pradesh government giving 2000 rupees per month to unemployed below a certain age Benefits: 1) reduce inequalities in income 2)employment- money can be used for startups which in turn demands workforce - money can be used for preparing people for government jobs 3) economic growth- due to purchasing power( Keynes theory) It may be suitable for a state like Sikkim by considering its low population, energy surplus, better HDI and geographical stretch. Otherwise it may not be sustainable: 1) encourage laziness 2) fails to check excess spending 3) Gender inequality and patriarchy- money given to women may be misused by male family members. 4) fiscal strain 5) people still do not use banks for savings. keeping it at home will decrease savings capacity. 6) increase in purchasing power may lead to inflation. Way Ahead: subsidies or partial UBI can be used to reduce fiscal strain UBI to be linked to a welfare scheme where a minimum is guaranteed. the amount will increase if there is improvement in their productivity. pilot basis on suitable areas that make it feasible(e.g. Sikkim) target vulnerable areas and groups(farmers, miners....) decentralised mechanism since each state has different dynamic. remove unnecessary subsidies so that it can be used for uni go for Universal basic capital. ubi to be given based on the performance only so that there is no extravagant spending. -

*UBI is next sixer* ? UBI shud be given with 1/2 child condition and scrap all subsidies (slowly stepwise)

By far the best news channel with the best of discussions with the best of people in a civilised way!

सरकार को अब ऐसी व्यवस्था की तरफ बढना चाहिए जिससे जनता को वकील की जरूरत ही न पडे या न्यूनतम जरूरत पडे ।

F R P - Your programs are amazing, each and every single one. Thank you.

It is very complex and important issue, need economists to discuss in better way, than former bureaucrats and journalists.

Mr.Frank is an enlightened person..knows everything...

Thanks you RS TV and all panelists and staffs.

Fabulous Debate 👌

Learning Ubi- all sections, periodic transfer, Canada - min come Will be effective if leads to productivity Sikkim democratic front - manifest of ubi Startup India and mudra shuld be enhanced Arvind subramanyam advocated ubi It is challenging in india to implement Should be done on pilot basis Large states find it difficult Countries should have surplus budget Means and ends should not be misunderstood

It would also lead to inflation given a higher demand and a possibly lower supply as people have a basic income in hand.

A.K.Bhattacharya were need to be in this conversation:(

What economic survey suggested was quasi universal basic income Resources can come from corporates using automation gaining profits . Or as government says there are savings from direct benefit transfer and use of aadhar Govt can use this for pilot project of ubi Main idea of ubi was backup to job loss due to automation

India is family based society. It should not make the mistake of USA, where it nationalised families by providing social security and removed responsibility from father he need not take of son, son need not take care of father in his old age. So what does son do in his employable age with his income ? Spend excessively, since he will be taken care of government in his old age. Now american household woes $ 14 trillion debt. America is in the biggest debt trab. India should not implement it. India was NO.1 Economy from 1 AD - 1700 AD as per OECD study because our family do not spend excessively since it has responsibility to take care of. Do not take of responsibility, which is failed idea of WEST, imported to india by western educated individuals. India is a family enterprise based society. Non farm entreprise are 5 crore employes 10 crore people, 75% not registered, it does not mean "informal" as per definition of west, in india it is were government did not reach. So most will collect UBI, draining government wealth, but they are technically employed, hence it will never ensure high productivity.

Thank u for this 😍

dont compare sikkim with india. sikkim is rich enough to afford it. also population is small so it is feasible

Major problem will be where will you get labour from if you give such freebies?? No one will like to work as livelihood is taken care off by such schemes

Never thought I'd watch a well informed debate here

अगर सरकार को UBI लाना ही है तो इसे केवल महिलाओं के लिए होना चाहिए। इसके दोहरे लाभ मिलेंगे-1,लालच से ही सही पर लड़कियों के प्रति समाज का रवैया बदलेगा।2,परिवार को गरीबी से बाहर निकालने में महिलाये ज्यादा सशक्त भूमिका निभा सकती हैं।

Insightful as always !

UBI may be a good idea but it has many loopholes according to me. *It may erode the working popltn in the rural areas especially the agricultural labourers. * It may create a way for those kind of people to be more lazy and may also demand for higher wage for farm activities. * They may spend this for many illegitimate purpose. * May increase in unemployment * This may not prove to be a sustainable plan for the country where demographic dividend shows average age of India will be 29 which lies with demand for more employment rate. * Instead of jus feeding with readymade food teach Indians to cook food ,it will be a far better idea to become leader in the world soon in future.

very good discussion with panel and frank sir.

Thanks RS TV ......🌋Jay Maharashtra🌋......

this Tripathi guy talked sensible i know one more Tripathi . that too does the same :D

Universal basic income idea could only be useful in alleviation of poverty and that only to sort period..what is required is to enhance capacity and capability of people and to create employment that will turn out in eradication of poverty ...

Modi should bring this scheme ,it will be very helpful for poors and rural people

Pl. upgrade your videos to 1080p HD. It would be beneficial to people who display your content on larger screens for large audiences and it would also provide a better experience for many viewers.

As one panelist pointed out..rather than bringing such schemes , focus of current Govt.should be on skill development and programs like MNERGA FOR unskilled workers . For very abled bodied person who is unskilled MANREGA SHOULD BE MADE MANDOTORY , IF GOVT. STILL NOT ABLE TO PROVIDE WORK ..then AS A COMPENSATION.. UNEMPLOYMENT ALLOWANCE SHOULD BE PROVIDED .THIS WILL OVER BRING PRODUCTIVITY IN ECONOMY AND HENCE GROWTH . CONCEPT LIKE UBI ACC. TO ME SHOULD BE FOR OLD AGE WHO ARE NOT HAVING ANY SOCIAL SECURITY ( PERMANENT SOURCE OF INCOME) AND FOR PHYSICALLY CHALLENGED PERSONS

If we Implement UBI by replacing basic schemes.. It will be a disaster.. I agree ubi should be given in addition to the basic schemes.. - this UBI should be given to the areas where employment creation, upgradation and livelihood have been very critical like in rural marginal farmers, landless labourers.. - In present scenario the concept of UBI have been pushed as the possibility of all gateways to create affordable employment opportunities been closed.. -We have good GDP growth.. But poverty can't be eradicated as it is emerging with different dimensions.. - By implementing UBI government is simply saying i will give you all things for ur livelihood.. U simply give the resources (mostly natural resources with minimum labours).. Its the case that is demanded by more corporates.. But it shouldn't be implemented in this manner... It will change human beings as shepherds with giving sticks to corporates..

I usually am a fan of RSTV, but this segment was a let-down. Not a single economist in the panel. 2 bureaucrats and an editor. Not a good mix.

In my opinion while only implementing in a too small states over only million people it can't be judged that we are able too implement in a huge population . Rather than practice in a small state it shall be implemented in a AVERAGE population state . Secondly, as in discussion the MASTERS suggested it shall not be issue politically rather than poverty.

Your phonetic is OMG😎

Very good

Topic like nps vis avis old pension system also needs to be discussed....

Please give best debate on gdp of India with other country

UBI is only gonna cause fiscal strain on the limited budget . People might use the basic income for useless purposes. It's better to invest them in schemes specialised for a particular category . All the basic necessities like food , healthcare except housing are already provided at subsidies . So it's better to invest the fund on furthering education and employment opportunities .

With advancing automation , unemployment is going to be a universal reality. Hence UBI will be a must to sustain economy to create enough consumers. So, we better start experimenting now and get good at it which will take decades for India. UBI is an idea whose time has come. Given the inefficiency and ineffectiveness of our beuraucracy in implementing welfare schemes, it is all the more important.

UBI should not be political move but it should be economic move .. Some Others social welfare of govt. should be exist...

Our current NPAs are about 10 to 15 lakh crores. Historically, their recovery rate is

free money for more votes, against the ethics, making indians to be lethargic... if the government effectively implement the schemes with more transparency..... we would've not even think about the UBI. HUGE POPULATION-- needs HUGE MONEY TO SUPPLY-- India is still facing poverty...before making this kind of annoucments ..,.. they should think about the resources. money won't be showered from sky ...just to grab attention... INDIA needs to develop in many sectors like health, skill etc., shower your money on enhancing such issues , giving money and leaving people to make their own choices, as people are poor ... showing money and making them fools is not correct. openly giving money for votes in the form of UBI

The project will have gud success in states like Sikkim but fails miserably if implemented in other states especially one like Bihar, uttar Pradesh etc

India is not a poor country, the poverty embellishes on India due to stark income inequality where one person changes his clothes everyday and other person dies of hunger. 10000 $ is not required for a basic life, it is required if you don't have self-control.

Several schemes which are launched by government but many poor families don't know about them because there are lack of systematic ways......

Destroy the corporate domination On poor to provide universal basic income for weaker sections

What is the hue about productivity? Is present economy productive where everybody is under loan pressure? Productivity of Indians can be seen in polluted cities, where air is polluted, water is polluted and fruits and vegetables are filled with fertilizers, what is the productivity?

add captions plsssssssss

🙏🙏 🌷🌷🌷

Y nt try it in assam

Should only be given to persons having 1 child. And double that if it is girl child

Parera with beard balle balle

providing ubi..... to states is not a good Approch....as we are not up-to the GDP of skihim.As per the direction from the constitution the state can involve this scheme into its natives..... by the dirctive principles of state policy..... but this doesn't suit for.... other under-developed states like bihar, AP, orris,

If everyone will get income then who will work..

Every state government must provide universal basic income for all weaker sections to control economic inequalities

basic income could be a step towards unproductivity,inefficiency, and moreover exploitation(as in india a house ruled by a dominant male),Indian people are not mature enough to take decisions which are pragmatic given their education and economic status. Job creation and skill development along with other employment opportunity is the need of hour.

Also income might peddle alcoholism, gambling, and other social evils. plus women can be coerced by husbands into giving them money for purposes other than sustenance.

No we cannot implement UBI now, We have already many schemes in India !like LPG etc.

Money in wrong hands is not an enabler. Drug addicts alcoholics etc will get the easy money and beat their wives , who tried to provide for the family with the help of earlier schemes that provide basic amenities.

Is economist think reservation is good for developing country

Concept isn't cleared with this discussion

Ajay dua remains uncandid and makes mountain the mole hill so he should not be invited..

Don't like Parera with Beard

Whose literacy rate is 98%? As frank is saying..??

This move is purely a poll gimmick of Mr Chamling. He is in power for 25 years all those years he promised the people of Sikkim to turn the state into Switzerland of India.. There is ramped corruption in the state that goes unquestioned and unnoticed. Today Sikkim has 3rd highest educated unemployed youths. The state with population of 6.4 lakhs is never difficult to manage.. In all his recent speeches he has spoken a length about caste and communities.. people in sikkim need better connectivity,jobs,business,exposure,better schools,better hospitals,good colleges and freedom from nepotism in finding jobs.. the way Sikkim university and NIT sikkim is ran speaks a volume about Govt. mismanagement.. sadly sikkim as a state has no alternative to Mr Chmaling and SDF. We the people of sikkim (bhutia lepcha and nepali) need to rise above mere politics played on the ground of caste and communities and start asking the real question of development and very importantly the pristine ecology and natural beauty of the state..

How about cutting the incomes of these panelists to half and distribute it to 40 old aged people as unemployment allowance, the must be earning not less than 2 lacs per month, they can live good life even in half of that amount. Similarly how about cutting salaries of our rascal MPs and MLAs and bureaucrats to half and fund it to unemployment allowances because they are servant of the nation and servant don't need luxurious salary because it will bring false ego to them and they will lack concentration in the work and earning money will have no end (desire) like we can see in case of corrupt bureaucrats like Chandrakala.

It could make more lazy guy

the lazy peoples will still being lazy with this 💰. give the money who deserved produce more employment produce enough capital infrastructure to satisfy rising human capital I am against UBI
