I have been involved in 7 different elections. Best thing was the switchover from ballot to EVMs.Ballot paper led to fraudulent voting,booth capturing & manual counting.EVM technology has led to fairer elections. EVMs have system checks,protocols r tamper proof & can’t be hacked.

Leapfrogging Digital Payments in India: UPI with 18 Billion transactions annually has surpassed Amex at 8 Billion. Amex,Visa and MasterCard are all decades old,but a 5 year old UPI has overtaken Amex & will definitely surpass Visa & MasterCard over the course of the next 3 years.

Air India was Niti’s first recommendation on Disinvestment. Delighted that it has led to Tata’s (Talace) becoming the rightful owner of the airline. It’s a fulfilment of PM @narendramodi objective of Pvt sector running businesses & Govt being a facilitator & catalyst.

12 days ago, only 4.7% of all those tested were found +ve. Some people incorrectly argued that low testing was to blame. Now, 12 days later when testing has increased by over 100% and 40k tests/day are taking place, our +ve detection rate is even lower, just 4.1%. Good news👍
