Hi Friends,

Even as I launch this today ( my 80th Birthday ), I realize that there is yet so much to say and do. There is just no time to look back, no time to wonder,"Will anyone read these pages?"

With regards,

WHEN IS RANK # 1 BAD ?




Only yesterday , UN member countries adopted UN Sustainable Development Goals for 2030

It calls for elimination of poverty and hunger from the World in next 15 years

Today , there are 795 million hungry people in entire World

Of these , India tops the list with 195 million hungry

Wrong parameter in which to get Rank # 1  !

And since India's population is growing by 15 million people each year , there is no threat anytime soon , of India losing its first rank  !

But without a job , hunger cannot be wished away

In India's Employment Exchanges alone , 43 million jobless youth are waiting for an interview call - a call that never comes  !

Can these Job-Seekers be converted to Job Creators ?

By making them , " Self Employed " micro enterprises ?

As per one estimate , today some 30 million MSME in India are providing jobs to 60 million persons ( ave of 2 per MSME )

So , if these 43 million are given loans of Rs 5 lakh each to start their own businesses , they will create 86 million jobs  !

May be this is what Shri Narendra Modi had in mind , when in UN General Assembly yesterday , he said :

"  The world speaks of private sector and public sector. In India, we have defined a new personal sector of individual enterprise, micro enterprises and micro finance, drawing also on the strength of digital and mobile applications. "

Could he have added ?

" When we continued to tinker with umpteen processes for the past 30 years , China's GDP grew to $ 10 Trillion , when India is struggling to reach $ 2 Trillion !
If we cannot prove that ECONOMIC  REVOLUTION can be made to happen in a DEMOCRATIC set-up , hungry people around the World will lose faith in Democracy  ! 


If , in a democratic frame work , Silicon Valley Start Ups can take USA GDP to $ 17 trillion , so can we . And we will  "


Understandably , UN is not the forum where he could spell out the details

I hope , that consists of enacting :

" Start Up Act - 2015 "

( which I am lobbying for past few months )
