    Shedding the incrementalism that has marked much of India’s reform programmes, Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi has gone the whole hog and bet on India’s intrinsic entrepreneurial spirit to pull the country out of its Covid-induced economic stupor and into the ranks of the world’s leading nations, writes India Inc Founder and CEO Manoj Ladwa.

      Those who unleashed violence on India’s Republic Day have lost moral authority to speak on behalf of the country’s farmers. The world watched in bewilderment at the premediated attempt to hijack India’s celebration of democracy and quest for much needed reform of its economy. The Modi government must now for the sake of democracy stand firm, writes India Inc. Founder and CEO Manoj Ladwa.

        The US President’s decision to re-join the Paris Climate Accord, Indian Prime Minister Modi's ISA initiative and Prince Charles’ Terra Carta vision all have the same goal. The world’s three greatest democracies should combine forces to lead the fight against global warming and regain four lost years under Trump, writes India Inc. Founder and CEO Manoj Ladwa.

          The broad bipartisan support for closer strategic and economic ties with India means that on the face of it Trump or Biden will be equally good (or bad) for India. However, with wider geo-political issues at stake and the huge influence that Indian American voters could have on the outcome in swing states, the race to the White House is far more important for India Inc. than ever before, writes India Inc Founder and CEO Manoj Ladwa.

            Getting fit for a post-Covid World – India’s huge privatisation programme

            Prime Minister Modi has repeatedly asserted that government has ‘no business being in business’. But critics doubted the rhetoric. This week Modi announced the biggest and most ambitious privatisation programme of state assets ever and in doing sends a strong signal that the Indian state is getting leaner and fitter for a post-Covid World, writes India Inc. Founder and CEO Manoj Ladwa.

              By pressing ahead at this time with the privatisation of Air India and announcing that Non Resident Indians will be allowed to bid for and buy 100 per cent of India’s ailing national carrier, Modi is proving himself to be unabashed about continuing to walk the talk on economic reforms, writes India Inc. Founder and CEO Manoj Ladwa.

                The 14th India-UK Joint Economic and Trade Committee (JETCO) comes with all the promise of post-Brexit “Early Harvest Agreements” in the lead up to a full-fledged free trade agreement (FTA); but it is important that the momentum unleashed by ministers on both sides is revved up to top speed now, writes India Inc. Founder & CEO Manoj Ladwa.

                  Absolute power is making Xi Jinping an arrogant and irresponsible global bully

                  He is China’s most powerful leader since Mao himself and probably doesn’t have any independent sounding board in the upper echelons of China’s party and government elite. This is blinding the Chinese President to the rising tide of global resentment against Beijing’s coercive diplomatic and military tactics, write India Inc Founder and CEO Manoj Ladwa.
