We see a generational conflict in this video between Rahul Gandhi and his esteemed ancestor Moti Lal Nehru. Congress website itself says: “Chittaranjan Das, whose 97th death anniversary fell on June 16, 2022, had many things in common with Pt. Motilal Nehru. They were both eminent lawyers; both gave up not only their lucrative professions in the wake of noncooperation movement but also their palatial houses, both were founder members of the Swaraj Party. (https://inc.in/congress-sandesh/tribute/chittaranjan-das-and-swaraj-party)” So was Swaraj Party, going by Rahul’s definition, a Bhakti Movement for awakening of the Inner Consciousness? Maybe the modern fountainhead of wisdom will enlighten the masses and proclaim ‘freely’ that his ancestor had no idea of the meaning of Swaraj. We wait!

ECONOMIC GOOD NEWS CONTINUES (150)… Everyone is talking about 6.7% IIP growth in July.
I want to talk about capital goods: 15.4%.
Here is why it matters more than the headline:
Capital goods = machines and equipment businesses buy for future production. You only invest when you're confident about tomorrow.
India's industry just invested at 15.4% growth.
And this is the 6th time in 7 months capital goods grew 10%+.
That is not a data point. That is a declaration of confidence in India's future.
Full scorecard:
📊 IIP: 6.7% (vs 5.4% last July)
🏭 Manufacturing: 7.0%
⚡ Electricity: 8.7%
🔩 Capital goods: 15.4%
📦 Intermediate goods: 9.4%
🛋️ Consumer durables: 8.7%
📈 FY27 first 4 months: 6.3% (vs 4% last year)
Opposition says economy is in shambles.
Industry is investing at 15.4% growth.
Industry wins. 🇮🇳
Rahul Gandhi says the economy is in shambles.
The IMF says $5.1 trillion by FY29.
Today's IIP says 6.7% growth in July — with capital goods at 15.4%
One of these is describing India's economy accurately. And it isn't Rahul Gandhi.

ECONOMIC GOOD NEWS CONTINUES (149)… While the opposition disrupts Parliament, India's ministers are out in the world — fighting for every billion dollar that can come India's way.
Commerce Minister Piyush Goyal was in Tokyo on August 25, pitching India to the Japanese Minister of Economy, Trade and Industry Akazawa Ryosei. The agenda: data centres, AI infrastructure, technology cooperation, trade and investment.
And the numbers he carried into that room are breathtaking:
$200 billion. That is the investment commitment India has already received from global hyperscalers — the world's largest data centre and cloud companies — for building data centre capacity in India. Two hundred billion dollars. In one sector. Already committed.
$200 billion. Or approx. ₹17 lakh crore.
To put that in perspective — India's entire Union Budget for FY26 was approximately ₹50 lakh crore. So this single sector's investment commitment is roughly one-third of India's entire annual budget.
And look at who is writing those cheques:
🔵 Google: $15 billion
🔵 Microsoft: $17.5 billion
🔵 Amazon: $35 billion
🔵 Digital Connexion: $11 billion — specifically in AI infrastructure including data centres
This is not FDI in a conventional sense. This is the world's most powerful technology companies making long-term, multi-decade bets on India's digital future. They are not building data centres for one or two years. They are building the backbone of AI economy — and they are being made to choose India.
Why India? Because Modinomics has made India the most compelling destination:
🇮🇳 Tax holiday on data centre investments till 2047 — a 20-year policy horizon that gives global investors the certainty they need
And through all of this — Piyush Goyal is living out of a suitcase, country after country. Meeting after meeting. Deal after deal. Just relentless, tireless work like Narendra Modi to ensure India does not miss a single opportunity in the global AI and technology race.
This is what governance looks like when a country is serious about its future.

Yesterday I was on this debate 👆 on Bharat Express, and I asked a question that I think deserves a genuine consideration.
Has Rahul Gandhi — in Gen Z parlance — gone delulu?
For those not fluent in Gen Z: delulu means delusional. Specifically, someone who has constructed an alternate reality.
Let me make the case.
This leader wants an FIR so there is an enquiry, but Supreme Court, no less, has already constituted a High Power Committee for that headed by a retired Supreme Court judge. But, he has no faith or respect for Judiciary.
This is a leader who demanded Amit Shah make a statement in Parliament — and when Amit Shah agreed to speak — he ran away. No respect for Parliament.
This is a leader who sits on dharna without obtaining any permission. No respect for Rules or Executive.
Thinks he is law unto himself. Is that not Delusional?
At what point does a pattern of being consistently, comprehensively, demonstrably wrong about everything — stop being called "opposition politics" and start being called something else?
In Gen Z language: delulu.
In political language: dangerously disconnected from India's reality.
In voters' language: exactly why Congress keeps losing.

ECONOMIC GOOD NEWS CONTINUES (148)… Will opposition be man enough to stand and applaud?
They called us assemblers. They said we were just screwdriver factories. They mocked the PLI scheme as a subsidy for foreign brands with Indian labour.
Well. Here is what was actually happening.
The Modi government had a plan. A deliberate, sequenced, multi-year industrial strategy — and today's announcement is its next chapter.
Rewind to understand the journey:
When PLI for smartphones launched, India was a net importer of mobile phones. 99.2% of handsets used in India are now manufactured in India. Today India is the world's second largest mobile phone manufacturer by volume. Exports went from $3 billion to $29.4 billion — a 10x jump.
That was Phase 1. Build the manufacturing base. Attract global brands. Create the ecosystem — components, supply chains, skilled workers, factory infrastructure.
Phase 1 is complete.
Now Phase 2 begins.
The government has notified a ₹62,500 crore Mobile Phone Manufacturing Scheme — effective April 1, 2026, running through FY2031. And this time the ambition is of a completely different order.
The goal is not to manufacture other people's phones. The goal is to create Indian-owned smartphone brands — with Indian designs, Indian intellectual property, Indian identity — that can compete globally.
IT Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw has identified three potential Indian players capable of building competitive global smartphone brands. Three Indian companies — within 10 to 14 months — could be making phones that are genuinely, legally, intellectually Indian.
And the government is being rigorous about what "Indian" means. No copycats. No rebranding of existing products. The design must be original. The intellectual property must be genuinely Indian-owned. Vaishnaw said the government would be "very particular" and "meticulous" in scrutinising every proposal.
The focus going forward: deeper local supply chains, stronger design capabilities and higher-value production. India is leveraging the manufacturing ecosystem built over the past decade to now climb to the next level — from making phones to owning them.
Now — to those who spent

Yesterday was a particularly satisfying experience.
I had the opportunity to introduce Integral Humanism to nearly 1,000 young students of Punjab Engineering College as part of their Orientation Programme.
This was not intended to be a conventional lecture on philosophy. Idea was to approach Integral Humanism through questions that are central to the generation entering college today — AI, technology, ambition, happiness, sustainability and the kind of future we want to build.
Our young people don't need to be given answers alone. They need to be encouraged to ask the right questions.
We began with AI — and asked a simple question:
If machines become more intelligent than us, what is it that will still make us human?
From there, the conversation moved to ambition, happiness, technology, society, nature and ultimately to the idea of the integral human being.
As India moves rapidly towards becoming a technological and economic powerhouse, the challenge before us is not only how much we can achieve, but what kind of society and human beings that achievement creates.
Taking our civilisational thought to young India, in a language and context that resonates with them, is both a responsibility and an opportunity.
The future of India must be technologically advanced — but deeply rooted in its civilisational wisdom.
That is the conversation I hope we can continue.
My heartfelt thanks to Prof Rajesh Bhatia, Prof Puneet, Prof Jyoti Kedia, Prof M P Garg and the young student coordinator Mihika.

What does it mean to be an engineer in a world shaped by rapid technological change?

Day 3 of Orientation 2026 at Punjab Engineering College featured an engaging speaker session by Dr. Dharinder Tayal, PEC alumnus, entrepreneur and innovator at Dr. Videnta Oral Care Pvt. Ltd.

Drawing from his journey across engineering, entrepreneurship and innovation, Dr. Tayal encouraged students to look beyond conventional definitions of success and approach their professional journeys with curiosity, confidence and foresight.

The session highlighted that engineering is not merely a job or a degree, but the beginning of a career and a way of thinking that equips one to identify problems, anticipate challenges and create meaningful solutions.

A recurring message throughout the session was simple yet powerful: keep asking questions. Students were encouraged to question established ideas, accept nothing blindly and seek understanding before acceptance. From technology and Artificial Intelligence to history, society and human values, the discussion emphasised the importance of developing the habit of questioning everything.

The session also encouraged students to reflect on their role as future engineers and problem-solvers, reminding them that the ability to think independently, look ahead and challenge assumptions can be just as important as technical knowledge.

A thought-provoking session on coming of age as an engineer, developing problem-solving foresight and beginning the journey towards becoming professionals who do not simply accept answers, but have the courage to ask better questions.

🇮🇳 Something remarkable reported today.

US President Donald Trump, making a case for electoral reform in America, held up India's election system as the global model to follow. 64.6 crore voters. Mandatory photo ID. Less than 1% mail voting. The US Ambassador called it proof that large-scale voter identification is entirely feasible.

The world's oldest democracy is learning from the world's largest. That is a matter of immense national pride.

And then Congress's Pawan Khera responded.

He said — and this is a direct quote: "Dear Trump, please take Gyanesh Kumar Gupta to America and keep him there. We will send our EVMs too by the next available flight."

Think about what this actually means.

When the entire world praises India's election system — Congress wants to dismantle it and export it.

Why? Because Congress cannot win free and fair elections. They haven't been able to for over a decade. And so global praise of India's electoral integrity is not a source of pride for them — it is a threat.

Pawan Khera's "joke" is actually Congress's confession:

Fair elections = Congress loses.
Therefore: destroy fair elections.

The 64.6 crore voters who participated in India's last election deserve to know that a national party responded to international praise of their democratic participation by asking a foreign leader to take away the system that counted their votes.

This is not opposition politics. This is institutional vandalism.
