परिवर्तन

दुनिया ने जीना आज हमको सिखाया है, अच्छे काम करना हमें इसी से आया है। कल कितना अलग था, और आज कितना अलग है, कल दुनिया से हम तेज़ थे, और आज वो हमसे तेज है। कल तक हम अजांन थे, ना जीवन की पहचान थी, ज़िन्दगी का सार अब, नया सवेरा सीखा रहा। हवा से ना पूछना, वह कहाँ से आयी है, यह साफ़ हवा ही तो, नई जिंदगी लायी है। सूरज कल भी निकलता था, और आगे भी निकलेगा,      फर्क केवल इतना है,  कल तक हम बेखबर थे, और आज वो बेखबर है। जिंदगी ने हमारी आज, कैसा ये मोड ले लिया, जाने-अनजाने यहाँ पर, ऎसे लाकर छोड़ दिया। आज अँधेरा है, कल फिर उजाला आयेगा, इंसान फिर एक बार जहां था, वहां पहुँच कर दिखायेगा। लेकिन ऎसे ही जिये तो जिंदगी, जिंदगी सी ना रहेगी, बदलाव के भरोसे है, अब जिदंगी का फलसफा। दुनिया ने जीना अब हमको सिखाया है, अच्छे काम करना हमें इसी से आया है।

ECONOMIC WOES- A tale of an upcoming disaster?

Fitch ratings (a US based credit rating agency) has recently released a report, slashing INDIA's GDP forecast for 2020-21 at a mere 2.0%, down from previous estimate of 5.1% . The report suggested that India's GDP will be at a 30-year low which was recorded in pre-liberalisation(LPG reforms) era. It is obvious that this kind of report can raise eyebrows of a normal Indian, and one must be thinking that is it really possible, that India's GDP will plummet to such a low level. Checking India's Economy current trends :-  India has been facing a crunch in its private consumption(consumption by people and India Inc.) and the demand is low in many areas be it automobile(demand slides as much as 50% acc. to current reports), or FMCGs, this trend has been excerbated by the pandemic and a Nationwide lockdown for 21-days (A normal person don't want to spend money in this time to save more, thinking of encountering a more stressful situation in near future).
