Corporates should pay for vaccinations of their employees and pay for an equal number of others as CSR so that this takes care of funding vaccinations. This money should be directly paid to manufacturers

Why retire? Start a second career or even become an entrepreneur. If you take care of health, one can be productive till 80-90 years of age
What Gen Z & even millennials don't think about enough is that the retirement age is dropping fast due to technological progress & life expectancy going up due to medical progress.
In 20 years, retirement could be at 50 & life expectancy at 80. How do you fund the 30 years? 1/5

India has smartly used emerging technologies to benefit society. Examples are UPI, 3G/4G mobile connectivity, vaccines, airline/automotive/rail connectivity, Space, etc. AI/ML and quantum will also be used for societal good.
As we understand the ancient science, we need to apply these to modern world/society problems and make them relevant. In old days, this knowledge was used in society - it was relevant.
Transgenes in the human gut can reverse cancer and Type 2 diabetes. More and more such discoveries bring hope that we are close to finding cures for various types of cancer

🙏. Hope leaders from other industries will increase support for higher education and academic research. Very much needed for India to transition to a developed economy and create academic institutions in the top 50/10.
Government must take private sector support for training and to create accountability. Our airports are the first experience of India and we must make this world class. This will only require a small change since the numbers are small.
Unfortunately immigration management has been pathetic ever since BIAL has been told not to interfere by central n state authorities. If u recall when BIAL started NRN had managed to get Govt to agree to get immigration officers computer trained - now it’s not possible
