Heartiest wishes to all my Indian brothers and sisters on the 78th Independence Day! India is truly in its Golden Era, a land of immense opportunities for this century. While much has been achieved, there is still a long way to go to reclaim the ancient glory that Bharat has always been known for. Bharat remains a young nation, brimming with energy and a strong will to achieve new milestones. Indians, both within the country and abroad, along with the global community, are looking at India, working with India, and becoming part of the success story that India has created and will continue to create in the coming 25 years. Today, no one wants to miss out on this success story. From the youth, farmers, women, and backward classes, everyone is given the highest priority to ensure they have access to opportunities. Those who are well-off aim to build their wealth and grow more prosperous through this growth agenda. India’s market capitalization has grown by almost 400 basis points of its GDP in the last couple of years. Nearly 20% of India’s market capitalization comes from foreign funds, reflecting the rising confidence in the ease of doing business. India is already a leader in software services, banking, infrastructure, transportation, green energy, and agriculture. The country is now working in mission mode to revolutionize sectors like education, healthcare, semiconductor chips, space, and defense. Efforts are also underway to upgrade the outdated judiciary, further improving the ease of doing business. I invite people from all around the world to be part of the wealth that will be created in India in the coming 25 years. India remains the fastest-growing economy, with its stock markets open to all investors in various forms and shapes. Today, the Indian stock market sees thousands of profit-making companies listing themselves, offering investors ample opportunities to build wealth in times of global uncertainty and crisis. It’s a game of patience—invest in India for the long term and watch your wealth multiply. Reach out to your investment advisors. We have all seen how retail investors have been at the forefront of the last 12 months’ bull run. When you dig deeper, you see the resources in terms of skills, savings, and a committed approach that India is navigating its path through. Once again I wish heartiest wishes on this Independence Day and encourage to resolve to give your best shot in whatever we do to keep the momentum on.

A Tribute to Dr. Manmohan Singh: The Architect of India's Economic Reforms Today, we mourn the loss of one of India's greatest statesmen, Dr. Manmohan Singh (1932-2024). Beyond his calm demeanor and quiet leadership, Dr. Singh left behind an extraordinary legacy that shaped the economic future of India. As the Finance Minister in 1991, during one of India’s worst financial crises, he spearheaded transformative economic reforms. Under his leadership: The liberalization of the Indian economy was initiated, paving the way for foreign investments and privatization. Trade barriers were reduced, and India embraced globalization. Key sectors like telecommunications, technology, and manufacturing opened up, sparking growth and innovation. The foundation was laid for India’s journey to becoming a global economic powerhouse. His tenure as Prime Minister saw continued emphasis on inclusive growth, launching initiatives like the MGNREGA to uplift rural India while strengthening the nation's GDP trajectory. Dr. Singh’s leadership taught us the power of resilience, vision, and humility. His contributions to India's financial stability and growth will be remembered for generations. Rest in peace, Dr. Manmohan Singh. You will always be a guiding light for India’s progress. 🙏 #ManmohanSingh #EconomicReforms #India

But ultimately results matter

‘Melody hai chocolaty’ goes an old jingle from a famous marketing campaign of Parle Products Pvt. Ltd Why not tap into this new Indo-Italian connection, which happened first (in popular culture) with Indian Cinema (think: Sanjay L Bhansali’s 1998 film starring Aishwarya Rai) and later with umpteen marriages of celebrities like Vir-ushka to now Ambani’s magnum opus of a pre-wedding celebration that generates media wattage akin to those of film festivals in Venice (again, I refer Italy) Indian love of food has now brought pizzas home, as a mainstay of an adult Indian’s food habits and much more. There’s a new symphony in Indo-European relations which need a bridge first and this new Melodi (actually melody, not the confection I mentioned earlier either, the musical attribute really) needs to be strengthened and be taken further into the EU and India, in their modern avatars, not crippled by histories or hypocracies, in light of India’s G20 Presidency last year with too many member countries and a near comical G7 in Puglia with double entries from EU (functionally, eighth member but practically, a witness) in form of France, Germany and Italy (host nation in 2024) and also by UK in form of Canada; there’s a room for a middle way approach in re:grouping them, call it G12 (+1) which means a G13 (I meant, G12 with EU carrying on in the same role as it has in G7; one of observer state) where only single entries from G7(+EU) and more meritorious states from G20(+AU) are invited to deliberate on financial world of today to create a more liveable planet that this annual meeting’s participant representing the World Bank in Mr Banga is working on (unlike G7’s political undertones which stem from days of the “Great War” and G20’s claim of economic parity with advanced economies) There’s new rhyme in my brave new world, away from ‘horrors of the past’ or worries of ‘building a better tomorrow’, one is only too foolish to not listen!

Real leadership demonstrated here by ParalympicsGB, it’s sad that in 2024 we are still tackling these issues. Unfortunately, the word ‘Inclusive’ has become a buzz word for some, and whilst I’m sure many have the intentions to be inclusive all too often we have witnessed children be excluded from sport and/or physical activity in a range of provision from educational through to organisational and community sport. Its important to highlight there are a number of organisations, some national funded partners who say they are going to deliver inclusion but quite simply, they either do this in a ‘limited’ easy to roll out way, or funding is directed to strategic personnel to engage with the existing community clubs in a way that I see as an exercise to extract participation rates from them in a community setting. This can at times seem more frustrating when the same funded organisations apply for additional national funding from sector partners such as National Governing Bodies Its accepted but should not be, as it has potential to double count participation figures should scrutiny panels look deeper into this behaviour. All this whilst our children, in mainstream schools and nestled within our communities miss out on opportunities to participate in sport and physical activity because of the limitations There are some amazing examples of best practice in Northern Ireland with Disability Sport NI, in Bristol with Nova Sport, in the West Midlands with Andy C. Nicola Turner MBE and the United By 2022 team with the #GiftOfTheGames programme and with Geoff Maltby as part of an engagement programme for the 2022 games which resulted in junior development and growth in para/adaptive sports and clubs across Leicestershire. Inclusion should be built in to the delivery system not bolted on! Baroness Sandy Verma #Inclusion #Sport #Community #EqualPlay 🙏🏼❤️
